7 0

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

for a 4 sided polygon you can only draw one diagonal from one vertex so it forms 2 triangles.

For 5 sides you get 3 triangles

For 6 sides - 4

For 7 sides - 5

For 8 sides - 6

Looks like we get 2 less triangles than the number of sides in the polygon

Answer for 100 sides is 98 triangles.

Which expression is equivalent to (x^6y^8)^3\x^2y^2

Damm [24]

Answer:

$\large\boxed{\dfrac{(x^6y^8)^3}{x^2y^2}=x^{16}y^{22}}$

Step-by-step explanation:

$\dfrac{(x^6y^8)^3}{x^2y^2}\qquad\text{use}\ (ab)^n=a^nb^n\ \text{and}\ (a^n)^m=a^{nm}\\\\=\dfrac{(x^6)^3(y^8)^3}{x^2y^2}=\dfrac{x^{(6)(3)}y^{(8)(3)}}{x^2y^2}=\dfrac{x^{18}y^{24}}{x^2y^2}\qquad\text{use}\ \dfrac{a^m}{a^n}=a^{m-n}\\\\=x^{18-2}y^{24-2}=x^{16}y^{22}$

Charlie has the utility function u(xa, xb) =xaxb.his indifference curve passing through 32 applesand 8 bananas will also pass th

natka813 [3]

On an indifference curve, all bundles give the same amount of utility. (32,8) gives a utility of U(32,8)=32x8=256 If (4,y) is on the same indifference curve, then it must give the same utility. Hence, 256 = 4y y=64 64 bananas
