5/12(poetry) + 2/5(biographies) = 25/60 + 24/60 = 49/60
60/60 - 49/60= 11/60
11/60 are the remainder of the books in the shipment.

Rewrite the expression with rational exponents as a radical expression.
nexus9112 [7]

Answer:

If the expression is 4x^\frac{3}{7}, then the answer is the first option.

If the expression is (4x)^\frac{3}{7}, then the answer is the third option.

Step-by-step explanation:

Remember that when you have a radical expression in the form \sqrt[n]{x}, you can rewrite as:

=x^\frac{1}{n}

Then:

- If the expression is 4x^\frac{3}{7}, then you can rewrite it in the following radical form:

=4\sqrt[7]{x^3} (This form matches with the first option.)

- If the expression is (4x)^\frac{3}{7}, then you can rewrite it in the following radical form:

=\sqrt[7]{(4x)^3} (This form matches with the third option).

   ln 5
e              =    ?
                                    x
Keep in mind that y=e     and y = ln x are inverse functions of one another.
  ln 5
e       ,  we can drop both the "e" and the "ln 5."  We are left with 5 (answer).
                                                                                        ln 5
Alternatively, we could take the ln of both sides of y = e

which will result in ln y = (ln 5) ln e.  Note that ln e = 1 (these two functions are inverses of one another).

Then we are left with ln y = ln 5.  Dropping the "ln" operator from both sides,

y=5 (same as before).

a crew workers paved 2/15 mile in 20 minutes. if they work at the same rate what portion of a mile will they pave in one hour?

Which equation is a line that is parallel to the x-<br> axis and passes through the point (5,2)?
Natali [406]

Answer:

y = 2

Step-by-step explanation:

Since the line is parallel to the x-axis,

the gradient, m = 0

From the point, we know that

x = 5

y = 2

So y = 2 is the line that parallel to x-axis

What is the rational number equivalent to 3.24​
aev [14]

Answer:

The rational number equivalent to 3.24 repeating is 321/99

Step-by-step explanation:

To convert the decimal number to a rational number we can state this number and its multiples of 10, trying to find two number with identical decimal parts:

n=3.24242424...

10n=32.4242424....

100n=324.2424242...

Now, 100n and n have the same decimal part, then by subtracting these numbers we obtain:

100n-n=324.24242424...-3.24242424... = 321

99n  = 321

n = 321/99
