Without experience that would help you recognize it right away, I think
you would just need to try numbers until you find it.

Pick a number, multiply it by itself with pencil and paper, and see if it works.

(2)² = 4 too small
(3)² = 9 too small, and not growing fast enough; this could take all day
(10)² = 100 still too small
(15)² = 225 oops, too big; go back down
(12)² = 144 too small
(14)² = 196 too big
(13)² = 169 just right; hope the bears don't come back too soon

Step-by-step explanation:

Since ∠EBA = 90° then ∠ABD = 90° ( straight angle ) and

∠ABC + ∠CBD = ∠ABD, that is

2x + 3x - 10 = 90, simplifying

5x - 10 = 90 ( add 10 to both sides )

5x = 100 ( divide both sides by 5 )

x = 20, thus

∠ABC = 2x = 2 × 20 = 40°

∠CBD = 3x - 10 = (3 × 20) - 10 = 60 - 10 = 50°

(6)

4x - 18 = 3x + 7 ( vertical angles are congruent )

Subtract 3x from both sides

x - 18 = 7 ( add 18 to both sides )

x = 25

7y = 5y + 28 ( vertical angles are congruent )

Subtract 5y from both sides

2y = 28 ( divide both sides by 2 )

y = 14

I need help simplifying a math problem. It is (x^2 * x^-3)^4

Mashutka [201]

$(x^2 \times x^{-3})^4 \\ \\ (x^{2-3})^4 \ / \ product \ rule \\ \\ (x^{-1})^4 \ / \ simplify \\ \\ x^{-4} \ / \ simplify \\ \\ \frac{1}{x^4} \ / \ negative \ power \ rule \\ \\ Answer: \frac{1}{x^4}$
