On top: (-2)³ = -2 × -2 × -2 = -8
(x²)³ = x^6 (the exponents multiply)
and of course, (y)³ = y³
On the bottom: (xy²z)² = x² y^4 z²
(-yz)² = y²z²
Multiplying these together, the exponents add and we get x² y^6 z^4.
So, your reasoning is correct for what you have so far.
Your next step would be cancelling shared factors from the top and bottom.
Just like with regular fractions, if the numerator and denominator are divisible by the same number, you can divide them by it to simplify. (ex: 4/6 = 2/3)
Well, x^6 and x^2 are both divisible by x^2, right?
We can also cancel the y^3.
It might help to visualise the factors like this:
Once you've cancelled out x² and y³ from each, you're left with
Answer:
65 + .70(20)= 79 dollars
Step-by-step explanation:
65+0.70miles = Fee
this means she can drive 19 miles and she will still be below the price company A but as soon as she drives 20 miles company A and B will cost the same
You would round this number to 5. this is because the fraction is closest to the whole number five. if the fraction would have been 5 7/8, you would round it to 6.
i hope this helped!!!
Answer:
(a) Step 2. 9x -12 = 13 +2x
Step-by-step explanation:
The distributive property says a factor outside parentheses multiplies each term inside parentheses. It is an error to do addition of the factor, or to miss multiplying a term.
In Step 2 of this "solution", the factor of 3 is erroneously <em>added</em> to each coefficent inside parentheses. It should be <em>multiplied</em>.
Correct Step 2: 9x -12 = 13 +2x
__
The rest of the solution should be ...
Step 3: 9x -2x = 13 +12
Step 4: 7x = 25
Step 5: x = 25/7
___
<em>Check</em>
3(3(25/7) -4) = 8 + 2(25/7) +5
3((75 -28)/7) = 13 +50/7
141/7 = 141/7 . . . . . answer checks OK
To find the height of a giant ice cream cone outside of an ice cream parlor, Jayda places a mirror on the ground 320 inches from the base of the cone. Then Jayda stepped back 28 inches so that she could see the top of the ice cream cone in the mirror. Jayda’s eyes were approximately 62 inches above the ground. What is the height of the ice cream cone? Round to the nearest whole number. (no decimal)
