3 0

Answer:

Anna 9 and Betty 15

Step-by-step explanation:

sum the parts of the ratio , 3 + 5 = 8 parts

divide number of sweets by 8 to find value of one part of the ratio

24 ÷ 8 = 3 ← value of 1 part of the ratio , then

3 parts = 3 × 3 = 9

5 parts = 5 × 3 = 15

Anna gets 9 sweets and Betty gets 15

Two angles are complementary. One has a measure of 25 degrees. What is the measure of the other angle?

Pani-rosa [81]

Answer:

65 degrees

Step-by-step explanation:

Since complementary angles are 2 angles that add up to 90 degrees, all you have to do is subtract 25 from 90.

When you do that you get 65.

Example: 90 - 25 = 65

Simplify the expression x8 y-26/x14 y-5 X x-39 y-21.

KonstantinChe [14]

$\frac{x^8y^{-26}}{x^{14}y^{-5}}[x^{-36}y^{-21}]$

We will apply these following power rule

$x^m*x^n = x^{m+n}$
$x^m/x^n=x^{m-n}$

$[ \frac{x^8}{x^{14}}][ \frac{y^{-26}}{y^{-5}}][x^{-39}y^{-21}]$
$[x^{8-14}][y^{-26-5}][x^{-39}y^{-21}]$
$x^{-6}y^{-21}[x^{-39}y^{-21}]$
$[x^{-6-39}][y^{-21-21}]$
$x^{-45}y^{-42}$
