How do you solve (7^-1)^-1 and 5^2 * 5^4 * 5^-3

Mathematics
1 answer:
Katyanochek1 [597]3 years ago
7 0

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

exponents raised to a - power  is an inverse function probably not the right word

       a^-b    =  1/(a^b)     example       4^-2   = 1/(4^2)     =  1/16

so   (7^-1)^-1  is a double inverse which is back to the original number  7

      inverted 7 twice

      (7^-1)^-1     = (1/7)^-1     =  1/(1/7)     =   7     trust me or use your calculator

since the coeffients are the same  just add the powers...  some exponent rule

     5^2 * 5^4 * 5^-3   = 5^(2+4-3)   = 5³

here is it written out

5^2 * 5^4 * 5^-3    = 5²  ×   5^4   ×  5^-3    =   (5×5) × (5×5×5×5)  × (1/5×1/5×1/5)

    5×5 × 5× (5×5×5  × 1/5×1/5×1/5)           (5×5×5  × 1/5×1/5×1/5)  = 1

    5×5×5    = 5³

   so

Answer:

  c = 15/2

Step-by-step explanation:

Multiply both sides of the equation by 9, then reduce the fraction.

  9(5/6) = c

  15/2 = c

_____

<em>Alternate methods</em>

You are usually told to "cross-multiply" which means you multiply the expression by the product of the denominators. this would give you ...

  9(5) = 6(c)

Then you would divide by the coefficient of c to get ...

  (9·5)/6 = c = 15/2

__

Since c is multiplied by 1/9, you can solve this by multiplying by the inverse of that coefficient, 9. That is what is done in the first section above. Usually, this does in one step what the "cross-multiply" method does in 2 steps.

__

The "cross multiply" step can also be done by multiplying by the least common multiple of the denominators, 18. Then you have ...

  18(5/6) = 18(c/9)

  15 = 2c

Now, dividing by the coefficient of c gives ...

  15/2 = c

List the angles of triangle ABC in order from smallest to largest measure if AB=9, AC=11, and BC=10
nadezda [96]
The angles go in the same order as the sides across from them.
AB is the smallest side so angle C is across from it.
BC is the middle length so angle A is the middle angle. AC is the longest side so angle B is the largest angle.

How many days will it take for a sum of $4,000 to earn $80 interest if it is deposited in a bank paying ordinary simple interest
Maksim231197 [3]

Answer:

It will take 146 days to earn an interest of $80.

Step-by-step explanation:

The simple interest formula is:

I=\frac{P\times r\times t}{100}

It is provided that:

I = $80

P = $4,000

r = 5% p.a.

Compute the time required as follows:

I=\frac{P\times r\times t}{100}

t=\frac{I\times 100}{P\times r}

  =\frac{80\times 100}{4000\times 5}\\\\=0.4\ \years\\\\=0.4\times 365\ days\\\\=146\ days

Thus, it will take 146 days to earn an interest of $80.

Geometry help what is it will give brainliest
Lapatulllka [165]
For this problem, we can say that corresponding angles are congruent, or the same, this also means that their angle measures have to be the same. Then, our equations for our angles will be vertical angles, which means that they must equal each other. So we would then write our equation as 3x+20=4x+10 or 4x+10=3x+20. Then, to combine like terms, we will subtract 3x from both sides, resulting in x+10=20. Then we will subtract 10 from both sides, resulting in x=10.

86° 34° Х X = ____ degrees help quick pls​
Rufina [12.5K]

Answer:

60 degrees

Step-by-step explanation:

The angles all have to add up to 180, so you can do

34 + 86 +x = 180\\120 + x = 180\\x = 60
