When 27x^2z/-3x^2z^6 is completely simplified, the exponent on the variable z is _____.

Savatey [412]

The expression given (27x^2)z/(-3x^2)(z^6), can be simplify as below:

By properties of powers, if you have the same base, you can substract the exponents. Then:

=(27x^2)z/(-3x^2)(z^6)
=-9z/z^6 (As you can see: x^2-2= x^0=1)
=-9/z^5 (Then, z^6-1=z^5)

Therefore, the answer is: The exponent on the variable z is 5.

vladimir2022 [97]

Given that the basket of watermelons sells for $9 before tax and the tax rate is 9%.

The tax on the basket of watermelons is given by

$\frac{9\%}{100\%} \times\$9=0.09\times\$9 \\ \\ =\$0.81$

Therefore, the total price Tiffany pays for the basket of watermelons is $9 + $0.81 = $9.81

All of the following expressions are equal to N except _____. |−N| −(−N) |N| −N

Maksim231197 [3]

Answer:

D. -N

Step-by-step explanation:

Our four given expressions are:

A. |-N|

B. -(-N)

C. |N|

D. -N

The | | symbols represent absolute value, which is the distance from the value within the two lines and 0; essentially since it measures distance, absolute value always outputs a positive value.

In choice A, we have |-N|, which means the distance between -N and 0. Well, the distance will simply be N, which is equal to N. Eliminate A.

In choice B, we have -(-N). Double negatives signal that they will cancel out to become positive, so -(-N) = N. Eliminate B.

In choice C, we have |N|, which means the distance between N and 0. This is clearly just N, so eliminate C.

In choice D, we have -N, which denotes "negative N". Clearly, "negative N" (-N) is not the same as "positive N" (N), so D is the answer.

chong earns an annual salary of 29,500. how much is his biweekly paycheck? $1,134.62 $1,135.62 $1,234.62 none of the above

oee [108]

To figure this out, divide the annual salary by the months in a year.
29,500/12=2458.33
Now divide that by half of the amount of weeks in month
2458.33/1.5=1638.88
So the answer is none of the above.
