Answer:
33
Step-by-step explanation:
Weird way to write it but alright! (Sideways)
19pq^-2 x 5pq^6 = ?
These problems are pretty much single operations between each of the variables / constants.
So it's like this:
(19*5)(p*p)(q^-2*q^6) = ?
19*5 is 95.
For p*p remember that when two variables multiply there given powers add. In the case where the powers are not shown (like in the case of p*p) they are always assumed to be 1. So what is 1+1? 2.
p*p is p^2
For q^-2*q^6 it is the same deal with the previous problem. So now the problem looks like this:
-2 + 6 = 4
(The two is negative, because the power is negative 2)
So, q^4.
Our final answer is all of the combined.... like a so:
95p^2q^4
The train Chug-a-Lug must be going 153.5 miles to match the same speed as Old Steamy so they can arrive at the station at the same time.
The answer is one solution. Hope this helps
