One nice thing about this situation is that you’ve been given everything in the same base. To review a little on the laws of exponents, when you have two exponents with the same base being:
– Multiplied: Add their exponents
– Divided: Subtract their exponents
We can see that in both the numerator and denominator we have exponents *multiplied* together, and the product in the numerator is being *divided* by the product in the detonator, so that translates to *summing the exponents on the top and bottom and then finding their difference*. Let’s throw away the twos for a moment and just focus on the exponents. We have
[11/2 + (-7) + (-5)] - [3 + 1/2 + (-10)]
For convenience’s sake, I’m going to turn 11/2 into the mixed number 5 1/2. Summing the terms in the first brackets gives us
5 1/2 + (-7) + (-5) = - 1 1/2 + (-5) = -6 1/2
And summing the terms in the second:
3 + 1/2 + (-10) = 3 1/2 + (-10) = -6 1/2
Putting those both into our first question gives us -6 1/2 - (-6 1/2), which is 0, since any number minus itself gives us 0.
Now we can bring the 2 back into the mix. The 0 we found is the exponent the 2 is being raised to, so our answer is
2^0, which is just 1.

Answer:
x = 4 , y = -1
Step-by-step explanation:
x - 3y = 7 -- (1)
3x - 3y = 15 -- (2)
Rewriting (1), x = 3y + 7 -- (1)'
Substituting (1)' into (2),
3 ( 3y + 7 ) - 3y = 15
9y + 21 - 3y = 15
6y = -6
y = -1 -- (3)
Substituting (3) into (1),
x - 3 ( - 1 ) = 7
x + 3 = 7
x = 4 -- (4)
According to (3) and (4),
x = 4 , y = -1
Answer:
After a translation, the measures of the sides and angles on any triangle would be the same since translation only involves changing the coordinates of the vertices of the triangle.
After a rotation, the measures of the sides and angles of a triangle would also be the same. Similar to translation, the proportion of the triangle is unchanged after a rotation.
After a reflection, the triangle's sides and angles would still be the same since reflection is a rigid transformation and the proportion of the sides and angles are not changed.
Step-by-step explanation:
Rigid transformations, i.e. translations, rotations, and reflections, preserve the side lengths and angles of any figure. Therefore, after undergoing a series of rigid transformations, the side lengths and angle measures of any triangle will be the same as the original triangle, generally speaking, in another position.
