Answer:

$x=5\\y=5$

Step-by-step explanation:

I solved using substitution

−1.6x−3.2y=−24

−1.6x=−24+3.2y

−1.6x=3.2y−24

$x=-\frac{3.2y-24}{1.6\\}$

2.6x+2.6y=26

−2.6y+39=26

−2.6y=26−39

−2.6y=−13

y =5

Use the rules of exponents to evaluate or simplify. Write without negative exponents. 1/4^-1/2 = ___ a0

Nastasia [14]

For this case we have, by definition:

$a^{-b} =\frac{1}{a ^ b}$

So, we have:

$\frac{1}{4}^{-\frac{1}{2}}=\frac{1}{(\frac{1}{4})^{\frac{1}{2}}}$

On the other hand we have that by definition:

$a^{\frac{1}{2}}=\sqrt{a}$

Thus, the expression can be written as:

$\frac{1}{\sqrt {\frac{1}{4}}} =$

$\frac{1}{\frac{1}{\sqrt{4}}}$

$\frac{1}{\frac{1}{2}}$

$\frac{1*2}{1*1}=2$

So, we have:

$\frac{1}{4}^{-\frac{1}{2}}= 2$

Answer:

$\frac{1}{4}^{-\frac{1}{2}}= 2$

At a grocery store, an uncooked beef roast is on sale for $4.99/lb. At the same store, prepared roast beef is at the deli for $2

Mrrafil [7]

For us to find out how many times more expensive is the deli roast compared to the uncooked roast we need to change the units;
cost of 100g=0.221lb is $2.99
cost of 1 lb will therefore be:
1/0.221*2.99
=$13.53/lb
therefore the number of times more expensive the deli roast is compared to uncooked roast is:
[price of 1lb roasted meat]/[price of 1 lb uncooked meat]
=13.53/4.99
=2.7 times
