<h3>
Answer: x*a^2 or a^2*x</h3>
======================================
Work Shown:
a^(b+2) = a^b*a^2 ... break up the exponent
a^(b+2) = x*a^2 ... replace a^b with x
We don't know the value of 'a' nor the value of x, so we cannot evaluate further. This is the same as a^2*x because order of multiplication does not matter. For example, 2*3 = 6 and 3*2 = 6, so 2*3 = 3*2.
Let her monthly salary be x
1/8x = $65
x = $65 × 8 = $520
Her weekly pay is $520 ÷ 4 = $130
Answer:
2300
Step-by-step explanation:
Answer:
(x, y) = (3, 26)
Step-by-step explanation:
I like to solve systems of equations like this by graphing. A graphing calculator easily shows the solution for both x and y.
(x, y) = (3, 26)
__
As an alternative, here, the equations can be subtracted.
y = f(x)
y = g(x)
0 = f(x) - g(x) . . . . subtract the second equation from the first
0 = 11x -7 -(3x +17)
0 = 8x -24 . . . . simplify
0 = x -3 . . . . . . .divide by 8
3 = x
Now, we can substitute into either equation:
y = g(x) = 3(3) +17 = 26
The solution is (x, y) = (3, 26).
