Answer:

a) 22°

Step-by-step explanation:

Side 'a' is the shortest side, so angle A will be the smallest angle. Its value must be less than 60°, eliminating the last two answer choices. The actual value can be found from the Law of Cosines.

a² = b² +c² -2bc·cos(A)

cos(A) = (b² +c² -a²)/(2bc) = (5² +7² -3²)/(2(5)(7)) = 65/70

A = arccos(65/70) ≈ 21.7868°

Angle A is about 22°.

Write each fraction as an expression with negative exponents.

Artemon [7]

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

The art teacher had 1321 pipe cleaners for a project

She used 477 with the fourth age

A parent donated 2,600 pipe cleaners
