Answer:
-5 or 5 depending on how you write the simplified form
Step-by-step explanation:

__
The applicable rules of exponents are ...
(a^b)(a^c) = a^(b+c)
1/a^b = a^-b
__
Some folks like their simplified form to contain only positive exponents. Other folks avoid unnecessary fractions. Choose the form that satisfies your grader.
P = 2L + 2W
P = 2(6x - 2) + 2(x - 1)
P = 12x - 4 + 2x - 2
P = 14x - 6
A <<<< Answer
X 3x+7 y (x, y)
1 3(1) +7 10 (1,10)
2 3(2) +7 13 (2,13)
3 3(3) +7 16 (3,16)
4 3(4) +7 19 (4,19)
Answer:
88 problems
Step-by-step explanation:
Set this problem up as fractions
86/x = 98/100
Cross multiply
86 × 100 = x × 98
8600 = 98x
Divide both sides by 98
87.75... = x
Round to nearest whole number
87.75 rounds up to 88
