What is the value of 3 to the power 2 over 3 to the power 4? A. 1 over 81 B. 1 over 27 C. 1 over 9 D. 1 over 3

rodikova [14]

One way you could solve this is to just multiply the top and bottom out so that you get 9/81, reducing it by 9/9 to get 1/9 or option C.
Another way would be to do $3^{(2-4)}$ since dividing numbers with exponents would be subtracting the bottom exponent from the top exponent, provided that the base number (in this case 3) is the same for both. For this method, you would get $3^{-2}$ , which is equal to 1/9 or .1 repeating, the same answer that you'd get with the first method.

Wendy took a trip from city A to city B, a distance of 220 mi. She traveled part of the way by bus, which arrived at the train s

Sphinxa [80]

Answer:

1.72 hours on the train.

Step-by-step explanation:

The distance between the two cities is 220 miles. Therefore the sum of the bus and train distances is 220 miles. Let x be the distance by train and y the distance by bus: x + y = 220

Bus speed was 30 mph and train speed was 85 mph. The whole trip was 5 1/2 hours, that is 5.5 hours.

We have to, the bus distance would be equal to:

y = 260 - x

speed equals distance over time, like so:

v = d / t; if we rearrange for time

t = d / v, we can do another equality, since we know that the total time is 5.5 hours

5.5 = x / 85 + (260 - x) / 30; reorganizing we have left that:

(30 * x + 85 * 260 - 85x) / 85 * 30 = 5.5

Solving:

-55 * = 2550 * 5.5 - 22100

x = 146.81

146.81 miles would be the train distance.

To find the time, we divide by the speed of the train which is 85 mph:

146.81 / 85 = 1.72 h

We buy, with the equation the time:

146.81 / 85 + (260 - 146.81) / 30 = 5.5 hours

Therefore, Wendy takes 1.72 hours on the train.
