X is the number

when x is decreased by 18, we say 18-x

What is the answer to 16a5 b3/8ab ?

marishachu [46]

Answer:

When we are dividing exponents, there is this rule:

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

So, in our case we have this:

$\frac{16a^5b^3}{8ab} = \frac{16}{8}a^{(5-1)}b^{(3-1)}$ $=2a^4b^2$

Given ZW=20. Answer the questions please.

djyliett [7]

a) Corresponding angles of similar figures are congruent, so $\angle B \cong \boxed{\angle Z}$

b) Scale factor = (image)/(preimage). Since we are looking for ABCD to WZYX, this means that WZYX is the image and ABCD is the preimage. Thus, the scale factor is $\frac{25}{10}=\boxed{5/2}$

c) Since the scale factor is 5/2,

$\frac{20}{t}=\frac{5}[2}\\\\40=5t\\ \\ t=\boxed{8}$
