it would be 2(2^5), which is two times two to the fifth power. you take the original size and double it for every minute, which is like squaring it, but to the power of five, because it doubles once every minute for five minutes. i hope this makes sense!:)
3(4x +12)=180
12x + 36 =180
-36. -36
180-36= 144
12x = 144
——. ——-
12. 12
X = 12
It would be 7x7 + 2x2 = 53
We can use the distributive property for this:
4 (p+2) = 28
4p + 8 = 28.
4p = 28 - 8.
4p = 24.
Divide by 4 on both sides:
p = 6
