Answer:
p^(a-1)
Step-by-step explanation:
The simplified expression can be seen in the picture attached below
As the factors have the same base, we just need to add or substract the exponents
p^(a-3+2) = p^(a-1)
(2k² + 5k - 6)(3k - 1)
(6k³ - 2k² + 15k² - 5k - 18k + 6)
6k² + 13k² - 23k + 6
Use the FOIL method to simplify the problem.
(FOIL stands for first outer, inner, last)
The boxes from left to right are
100
2
25/3
The ratio is 5/3 pies to cakes so
Top square = bottom square times 5/3
OR
Bottom square = top square times 3/5
So what you would do is divide 988 by 26 and divide 731 by 17 and those two numbers you would add which gives you the amount of people that attended the performance
Step-by-step explanation:
I am not sure this is a square.
this could be a rectangle.
to be safe, I am following that path.
in a rectangle opposite sides are of equal length.
that means
y - 1 = 2y - 7
y = 2y - 6
0 = y - 6
y = 6
3x - 4 = 3y - 13
3x - 4 = 3×6 - 13
3x - 4 = 18 - 13 = 5
3x = 9
x = 3
as it turns out, it is a square, so we could have used every side expression to be equal with every other side expression, but better safe than sorry ...
