Answer:
(A) 2 3/10
(B) 1 7/15
Step-by-step explanation:
(A) Add the gallons he collected together to get the total amount of milk he started with: 4/5 + 6/8 + 3/4 = 2 3/10 gallons of milk.
(B) Take that number, 2 3/10, and subtract the amount of milk he has left to get the amount of milk he used. 2 3/10 - 5/6 = 1 7/15
The answer is w⁻²/v⁻².
v/w raised to the second power is (v/w)²
(v/w)² = v²/w²
Since xᵃ = 1/x⁻ᵃ, then v²/w² = 1/v⁻²w²
Since 1/xᵃ = x⁻ᵃ, then 1/v⁻²w² = w⁻²/v⁻²
If you would like to know what was the temperature after the increase, you can calculate this using the following step:
the beginning temperature: -9
increased: 37
the temperature after the increase: -9 + 37 = 28oF
The temperature after the increase was 28oF.
