Answer:

\frac{5^{4}}{25} = 25

Step-by-step explanation:

I'm not sure if you had a typographical error with this statement, "5 to the fourth power, over 25 = 52."

According to the <u>Quotient Rule of Exponents</u><u>:</u>

\frac{a^{m}}{a^{n}} = a^{(m-n)}

Method 1:

In order for you apply the Quotient Rule, the base must be the same. Since 5 is a factor of 25, then you could rewrite 25 as 5². Doing so will give you the following exponential expression:

\frac{5^{4}}{5^{2}} = 5^{(4 - 2)} = 5^{2} = 25

Method 2:

Even if you solve the given problem manually, you'd still get the same answer:

\frac{5^{4}}{25} = \frac{5*5*5*5}{25} = \frac{625}{25} = 25

Both methods produced the same result, proving that the correct answer is 25.

Renna pushed the button for the elevator to go up, but it would not move. The weight limit for the elevator is 450 kilograms, bu
Marina CMI [18]
First we should figure out how much over the weight limit the passengers are. We can find this by 750-450 which is 300. The amount of weight that needs to get off the elevator is 300 kilograms. Then, we know that each passenger weighs 70 kilograms. We can represent this as 70p.The inequality is 70p \geq 300. Then we can solve by dividing both sides of the inequality by 70. We get p \geq 4.28... Since people only come in whole numbers, and it has to be greater than 4.28, the number of excess passengers is 5.

Hope this helped!
