Answer: there were 15 tiles in each box

Step-by-step explanation:

Let the number of tiles in each full box be x

Suppose, instead, that Bruce used 6 full boxes of tiles plus an additional 2 tiles. It means that he used a total of

(6x + 2) tiles

Suppose, that Felicia used 5 full boxes of tiles plus an additional 17 tiles. It means that he used a total of

(5x + 2) tiles.

If they each used the same number of tiles, it means that the total number of tiles used by Bruce = total number of tiles used by Felicia. Therefore,

6x + 2 = 5x + 17

6x - 5x = 17 - 2

x = 15

Answer:

Option A.

Step-by-step explanation:

The given expression is,

[(64)^{-\frac{1}{2}}]^{-\frac{2}{3}}

By solving the given expression,

(64)^{-\frac{1}{2}}=\frac{1}{(64)^{\frac{1}{2}}} [Since a^{-1}=\frac{1}{a}]

           =\frac{1}{\sqrt{64}}

           =\frac{1}{8}

Now the expression will be,

[(64)^{-\frac{1}{2}}]^{-\frac{2}{3}}=(\frac{1}{8})^{-\frac{2}{3}}

                 =8^{\frac{2}{3}}

                 ={(\sqrt[3]{8})^2}

                 = 2²

                 = 4

Therefore, value of the given expression will be 4.

Option (A) will be the answer.

Rates and ratios simalar
Alex777 [14]
Rate is closer to a constant pattern , example: I'm walking at a rate of 2 miles an hour.

Ratio is related to the proportion of two or more objects, example: The ratio for a perfect tang juice is 1 packet of tang dust thingy for 1.5 liters of water.

Hope it helps :)
