Answer:
a) x = -3
b) 1/250
Step-by-step explanation:
The applicable rule of exponents is ...
a^-b = 1/a^b
__
a) It is helpful to know that 216 = 6^3.* Then you would realize that ...

If you don't know that, then you can solve the equation using logarithms. Taking the log of both sides, you have ...
x·log(6) = log(1/216)
x = log(1/216)/log(6) = -3
__
b)

_____
* This would be on your list of cubes of small integers that you might want to memorize, along with squares of numbers less than 20.
Answer:
23.54 m
Step-by-step explanation:
Applying
cos∅ = adjacent(A)/hypotenuse(H)
cos∅ = A/H................ Equation 1
make H the subject of the equation
H = A/cos∅............ Equation 2
Given: A = 15 m, ∅ = 25°
Substitute into equation 2
H = 15/cos25
H = 16.55 m
Also,
tan∅ = opposite(O)/Adjacent(A)
tan∅ = O/A............Equation 3
Make O the subject of the equation
O = Atan∅.......... Equation 4
Substituting into equation 4
O = 15(tan25°)
O = 6.99 m.
From the diagram,
The height of the goal post before snap = H+O
The height of the goal post before snap = 16.55+6.99
The height of the goal post before snap = 23.54 m
The new balance on Jane Hilman's account is the answer when we add up all the previous balance, the credit, and the negative of the amount she withdrew. This gives us,
new balance = $1009.88 + $6.19 - $130
The numerical answer to the equation above is $886.07.
Step-by-step explanation:
x + y = 72
x - y = 40
x = y + 40
so, the first equation is then
y + 40 + y = 72
2y + 40 = 72
2y = 32
y = 16
x = y + 40 = 16 + 40 = 56
