Answer:

The dishwasher will use 80 gallons of water to wash 10 loads of dishes.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given,

Water used for 4 loads of dishes = 32 gallons

Ratio of water used to load of dishes = 32:4

Let,

x represents the gallons of water required for 10 loads of dishes.

Ratio of water used to load of dishes = x:10

Using proportion

Ratio of water used to load of dishes :: Ratio of water used to load of dishes

Product of mean = Product of extreme

Dividing both sides by 4

The dishwasher will use 80 gallons of water to wash 10 loads of dishes.

Remember
(a^b)^c=a^{bc}
and
\frac{x^a}{x^b}=x^{a-b}


so

\frac{(7^2)^5}{7^{-6}}=
\frac{7^{2*5}}{7^{-6}}=
\frac{7^{10}}{7^{-6}}=
7^{10-(-6)}=
7^{10+6}=
7^{16}

the answer is D

torisob [31]
Refer to the diagram shown below.

The exit for Freestone is built midway between Roseville and Edgewood,
therefore the distance from O to the new exit is
(1/2)*(33+55) = 44 mi.

Let x =  distance from Midtown to the new exit.
Because the distance from O to the new exit is equal to (x + 17), therefore
x + 17 = 44
x = 44 - 17 = 27 mi.

Answer:
When the new exit is built, the distance from the exit for Midtown to the exit for Freestone will be 27 miles.
