Let b>a,
a+b=40 so we can say a=40-b
We are told that b-a=6.5, using a found above in the equation gives us:
b-(40-b)=6.5
b-40+b=6.5
2b-40=6.5
2b=46.5
b=23.25, and since a=40-b
a=40-23.25
a=16.75
So a=16.75 and b=23.25
check...
16.75+23.25=40, 40=40
23.25-16.75=6.5, 6.5=6.5
Answer:
can you retype type that for me please
Answer:
Since we have a^7 on the Numerator and after simplification... No "a" was left in the expression. It simply means that all a's in the numerator was eliminated and 2a's were left in the denominator.
To eliminate a^7 and still have 2a's as a remainder in the denominator... 'n' must be equal to 9
So
n=9
