Answer: m= -9

Step-by-step explanation: First use distributive property, -4(m) is -4m and -4(3) is -12. Then you have -4m -12 =24. Then use 12 and add it to the other side of the equation, cause of the subtraction sign, 12+24=36. Then you have -4m=36. Then divide the 4 to get the m by its self. 36 divided by -4 is -9. Your answer is m=-9

Hope this helps :)

Which expression is equivalent to square root 55x^7y6/11x^11y^8

Novay_Z [31]

Answer:

$\large\boxed{\sqrt{\dfrac{55x^7y^6}{11x^{11}y^8}}=\dfrac{\sqrt5}{x^2y}}$

Step-by-step explanation:

$\sqrt{\dfrac{55x^7y^6}{11x^{11}y^8}}=\sqrt{\dfrac{55}{11}\cdot\dfrac{x^7}{x^{11}}\cdot\dfrac{y^6}{y^8}}\qquad\text{use}\ \dfrac{a^n}{a^m}=a^{n-m}\\\\=\sqrt{5x^{7-11}y^{6-8}}=\sqrt{5x^{-4}y^{-2}}\qquad\text{use}\ \sqrt{ab}=\sqrt{a}\cdot\sqrt{b}\\\\=\sqrt5\cdot\sqrt{x^{-4}}\cdot\sqrt{y^{-2}}=\sqrt5\cdot\sqrt{x^{(-2)(2)}}\cdot\sqrt{y^{(-1)(2)}}\qquad\text{use}\ (a^n)^m=a^{nm}\\\\=\sqrt5\cdot\sqrt{(x^{-2})^2}\cdot\sqrt{(y^{-1})^2}\qquad\text{use}\ \sqrt{a^2}=a$

$=\sqrt5\cdot x^{-2}\cdot y^{-1}\qquad\text{use}\ a^{-n}=\dfrac{1}{a^n}\to a^{-1}=\dfrac{1}{a}\\\\=\sqrt5\cdot\dfrac{1}{x^2}\cdot\dfrac{1}{y}=\dfrac{\sqrt5}{x^2y}$
