I'm not completely sure but this is what I would do.
evaluate <span>(1/ 4)^x - 1 </span>as is. But change the (1 /2)^2x to (2/4)^2x. This way both fractions have the same denominator and in this sense, the same base. The 2/4 base still evaluates into 1/2 so nothing, mathematically, is being broken here.
Answer:
3/52528
Step-by-step explanation:
Answer:
The answer is: There are only 143034 books left after the students return to their classroom
Step-by-step explanation:
Lets call X= Number of books left in the library after the students return to their classroom.
B=Total of Books in the library
S=Total of books taken by the 3rd grade students
If each student of the 3rd grage class take 2 books, the total of book taken by the 3rd grade students would be:
S=2 books per student * Total of students of the 3rdgrade
S=2*21=42
Then we must substract Total of Books in the library minus Total of books taken by the 3rd grade students. That would be:
X=B-S
X=143076-42
X=143034
I hope that this answer will help you
