Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

if you divide 126 by 5, you get Meteorite B, 25.2, then minus that from 132, and you get Meteorite A, 106.8

To check, do 25.2 x 5 and you should get 132.

Which expression is equivalent to √2/^3√2

Anvisha [2.4K]

ANSWER

${2}^{ \frac{1}{6} }$

EXPLANATION

We want to find the expression that is equivalent to,

$\frac{ \sqrt{2} }{ \sqrt[3]{2} }$

This is the same as:

$\frac{ {2}^{ \frac{1}{2} } }{ {2}^{ \frac{1}{3} } }$

Use the following property of indices

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

This implies that,

$\frac{ {2}^{ \frac{1}{2} } }{ {2}^{ \frac{1}{3} } } = {2}^{ \frac{1}{2} - \frac{1}{3} }$

Simplify to obtain,

${2}^{ \frac{3 - 2}{6} } = {2}^{ \frac{1}{6} }$

Which statement would be true if you evaluate the expression 15x(465x4)

Morgarella [4.7K]

Answer:

c. the solution is 3 times as large as 5x(465x4)

Step-by-step explanation:

I assume you are using the letter x as the multiplication sign.

Start with:

15 x (465 x 4)

We know that 15 = 3 x 5

Now we replace 15 with 3 x 5 in the original expression.

15 x (465 x 4) = 3 x 5 x (465 x 4)

Answer: c. the solution is 3 times as large as 5x(465x4)
