Answer:
2
Step-by-step explanation:
You have the correct answer selected: 2.
The reason for this is that when there are exponents inside <em>and </em>outside of the parenthesis like this, they are multiplied.
2 times 2 is 4. That's why (8^2)^2 = 8^4
Step-by-step explanation:
−2x+5y=−15 and 5x+2y=−6
Rewrite equations:
−2x+5y=−15;5x+2y=−6
Step: Solve−2x+5y=−15for x:
−2x+5y=−15
−2x+5y+−5y=−15+−5y(Add -5y to both sides)
−2x=−5y−15
−2x−2=−5y−15−2(Divide both sides by -2)
x=52y+152
Step: Substitute52y+152forxin5x+2y=−6:
5x+2y=−6
5(52y+152)+2y=−6
292y+752=−6(Simplify both sides of the equation)
292y+752+−752=−6+−752(Add (-75)/2 to both sides)
292y=−872
292y292=−872292(Divide both sides by 29/2)
y=−3
Step: Substitute−3foryinx=52y+152:
x=52y+152
x=52(−3)+152
x=0(Simplify both sides of the equation)
Answer:
x=0 and y=−3
Answer:
Part A: The price of 1 pound of potatoes is 1 dollar and 25 cents (1.25) because 5 / 4 is 1.25 and that's 1 pound
Part B: The ordered pair (10, 8) represents that 10 punds of potatoes cost 8 dollars
Answer:
x^3 - 3x^2 - 3x + 9 + (-36/(x+3))
OR
x^3 - 3x^2 - 3x + 9 - (36/(x+3))
Step-by-step explanation:
First set the divisor equal to 0:
x + 3 = 0
Subtract 3 from both sides
x = -3
This is what you'll divide the dividend by in synthetic division.
Take the coefficents of each term in the dividend. Do not forget the 0 placeholders:
x^4 + 0x^3 - 12x^2 + 0x -9
Coefficents: 1. 0. -12. 0 -9.
Please see the image for the next steps.
The remainder is -36. Put the remainder over the divisor and add it to the polynomial (shown in image)
-36/(x+3)
There are 9 two-year-olds and 18 each of 3 and 4 year olds.
To solve this we could write and solve the equation below, letting x be the number of 3 and 4 year olds.
x/2 + x + x = 45
x + 2x + 2x = 90
5x = 90
x = 18
From here, we just divide 18 by 2 to get the number of 2 year olds.
