You can use the properties of exponents in three ways: Products of Power and Power to Power
Explanation:
Product of a Power: When you multiply exponentials with the same base, you add their exponents
Power to a Power: When you have a power to a power, you multiply the exponents.
Quotient of Powers: When you divide exponentials with the same base, you subtract the exponents.
Answer:
− x + 16y
Step-by-step explanation:
2x + 5y − 3x + 11y
= 2x + 5y + − 3x + 11y
Combine Like Terms:
= 2x + 5y + − 3x + 11y
= (2x + − 3x) + (5y + 11y)
= − x + 16y

Answer:
m = (5x -6)/(43y -4)
Step-by-step explanation:
Subtract 4m+6 to separate m-terms from other terms.
5x +4m -(4m +6) = 43my +6 -(4m +6)
5x -6 = 43my -4m
5x -6 = m(43y -4) . . . . factor out m
(5x -6)/(43y -4) = m . . . . divide by the coefficient of m
