Answer:

6^-1

Step-by-step explanation:

6^-6 - (-5) = 6^(-6 + 5) = 6^(-1)

A lot of things are going on in this question. Notice how the 5 is handled. It starts off in the denominator as - 5 and when brought to the numerator it becomes -(-5) which makes it + 5.

The answer is then easy. It is 6^(-6 + 5) = 6^-1

You could give the answer as 1/6 but that is not what the question says.

barxatty [35]

Answer:

$1\frac{1}{4}\ liters$

Step-by-step explanation:

Convert mixed number to an improper fraction

$1\frac{3}{5}=\frac{1*5+3}{5}=\frac{8}{5}$

step 2

Using proportion

$\frac{2}{(8/5)}\frac{liters}{doors} =\frac{x}{1}\frac{liters}{door}\\ \\x=2/(8/5)\\ \\x=10/8\ liters$

step 3

Convert to mixed number

$\frac{10}{8}\ liters=\frac{8}{8}+\frac{2}{8}=1\frac{1}{4}\ liters$

Komok [63]

Step-by-step explanation:

Let the two numbers be 20x and 10x

Then by the question,

20x + 10x = 300

or, 30x = 300

or, x = 300/ 30

x = 10

Now the larger number

20x = 20* 10 = 200.

A baseball team played 25 games and won 10 of them. What percent of the games did they win?

GalinKa [24]

Answer: 40%

Step-by-step explanation:

Setting up an equation to solve,

25 as the denominator representing the total number of baseball games played to represent the "whole."

10 as the numerator representing the number of games the baseball games won to represent the "part" you want to calculate as a percentage.

The equation, looking like this,

10/25 = ___

after calculating the equation you get 2/5 as reduced, evaluating that in terms of percentage you get 40% as 5 represents 100% (the whole) and 2 representing 40% (the number of baseball games won)
