Answer:

$60

Step-by-step explanation:

we consider a pair of pants=x and a shirt=y

x + y= 75

x + 15=75

x= 75-15

x=60

Answer:

The rug is two feet too wide

Step-by-step explanation:

Well first, let's figure out the diameter of the rug to see if it will fit in the room. We know that the circumference of the circle is πd. So we can solve for d from there (d is the diameter).

c = πd

50.24 = πd

50.24/π = d

d = about 16 ft

Knowing this, we know that the rug would not fit in the room and if it was centered, it would have a foot of rug sticking out from each wall. Therefore, the rug is two feet too wide.

Determine whether each expression is equivalent to 49^2t – 0.5.

vampirchik [111]

Answer:

None of the expression are equivalent to $49^{(2t - 0.5)}$

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

$49^{(2t - 0.5)}$

Required

Find its equivalents

We start by expanding the given expression

$49^{(2t - 0.5)}$

Expand 49

$(7^2)^{(2t - 0.5)}$

$7^2^{(2t - 0.5)}$

Using laws of indices: $(a^m)^n = a^{mn}$

$7^{(2*2t - 2*0.5)}$

$7^{(4t - 1)}$

This implies that; each of the following options A,B and C must be equivalent to $49^{(2t - 0.5)}$ or alternatively, $7^{(4t - 1)}$

A. $\frac{7^{2t}}{49^{0.5}}$

Using law of indices which states;

$a^{mn} = (a^m)^n$

Applying this law to the numerator; we have

$\frac{(7^{2})^{t}}{49^{0.5}}$

Expand expression in bracket

$\frac{(7 * 7)^{t}}{49^{0.5}}$

$\frac{49^{t}}{49^{0.5}}$

Also; Using law of indices which states;

$\frac{a^{m}}{a^n} = a^{m-n}$

$\frac{49^{t}}{49^{0.5}}$ becomes

$49^{t-0.5}}$

This is not equivalent to $49^{(2t - 0.5)}$

B. $\frac{49^{2t}}{7^{0.5}}$

Expand numerator

$\frac{(7*7)^{2t}}{7^{0.5}}$

$\frac{(7^2)^{2t}}{7^{0.5}}$

Using law of indices which states;

$(a^m)^n = a^{mn}$

Applying this law to the numerator; we have

$\frac{7^{2*2t}}{7^{0.5}}$

$\frac{7^{4t}}{7^{0.5}}$

Also; Using law of indices which states;

$\frac{a^{m}}{a^n} = a^{m-n}$

$\frac{7^{4t}}{7^{0.5}}$ = $7^{4t - 0.5}$

This is also not equivalent to $49^{(2t - 0.5)}$

C. $7^{2t}\ *\ 49^{0.5}$

$7^{2t}\ *\ (7^2)^{0.5}$

$7^{2t}\ *\ 7^{2*0.5}$

$7^{2t}\ *\ 7^{1}$

Using law of indices which states;

$a^m*a^n = a^{m+n}$

$7^{2t+ 1}$

This is also not equivalent to $49^{(2t - 0.5)}$
