simplify 7+5^2

OpenStudy (anonymous):

i think i multiply 5x5 than add 7

OpenStudy (anonymous):

let's start with \[5^2\] do you know what that equals?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

yep you got it!

OpenStudy (anonymous):

thanks i got 32

OpenStudy (anonymous):

that's what I got too =)

OpenStudy (anonymous):

i need help on this one if you willing to help

OpenStudy (anonymous):

the given symbol expression. Twenty five squared divided by five cubed. Evaluate it

OpenStudy (anonymous):

\[\frac{25^2}{25^3}\] ?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

i got 25^2 divide symbol 5^4

OpenStudy (anonymous):

\[\frac{25^2}{5^3}\]

OpenStudy (anonymous):

cubed is ^3

OpenStudy (anonymous):

oh so 25^2/ 5^3

OpenStudy (anonymous):

how do i evaluate it

OpenStudy (anonymous):

25x25 and 5x5x5

OpenStudy (anonymous):

Yep :) what i would do it write the denominator (bottom) in terms of 25 so since \[\frac{25^2}{25\times 5}\]

OpenStudy (anonymous):

well 25x25=625

OpenStudy (anonymous):

we can cross out the 25 in the bottom with one of the 25's on top so \[\frac{25^\cancel{2}}{\cancel{25}\times 5}\]

OpenStudy (anonymous):

it also says type exponential notation with positive exponents after writing the expression

OpenStudy (anonymous):

you could multiply \[25^2\] out, but that would make it more complicated. Do you see what I did there? So now we have left \[\frac{25}{5}=5\]

OpenStudy (anonymous):

so oh i see 625 divide by 25 = 25/5=5

OpenStudy (anonymous):

yep. That's it!

OpenStudy (anonymous):

what is type exponential notation with positve exponents

OpenStudy (anonymous):

i see how we set up the written problem but is that the only way to set it up

OpenStudy (anonymous):

oh ok well thanks do you have time for another one

OpenStudy (anonymous):

sure. write close this one and write it on the left.

OpenStudy (anonymous):

I mean close this question and write the new question on the left

OpenStudy (anonymous):

ok

OpenStudy (anonymous):

<---can I have a medal?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

=)

OpenStudy (anonymous):

the table list the percentage of households that were 3 person households during selected years. year 1970, 1980, 1990,2000 % 17.3, 17.3, 17.1, 16.9 What is percentage for 2000? Calculate the average percentage ?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

i have for 2000is 16.9 and average 17%

OpenStudy (anonymous):

oh i had to round the average 3 places

OpenStudy (anonymous):

sorry I walked away for a moment. I'll be back in 5 mins sry

OpenStudy (anonymous):

k

OpenStudy (anonymous):

the average percentage is \[\frac{17.3+17.3+17.1+16.9}{4}=\]

OpenStudy (anonymous):

I get 17.15

OpenStudy (anonymous):

post the question on the left and see if people get the same answer :)
