What is 5 to the power of 4 times 5 to the power of 2 written as to the power of 5?
To simplify the expression (5^4)(5^2) as a single power of 5, we can apply the rule of exponents that states when multiplying numbers with the same base, you add the exponents. In this case, 5^4 * 5^2 can be simplified to 5^(4+2) = 5^6. So, (5^4)(5^2) written as a single power of 5 is 5 to the power of 6.
Does law of variable proportion apply only in agriculture?
No. It also applies to mathematics in general.
Do the same rules apply when you solve equations and inequalities?
Almost. There's one new rule, which is that whenever you multiply or divide by a negative number, you have to flip the inequality sign. To see why, try achieving the same result without this step, using positive factors and subtraction: the equation must effectively flip itself around the sign.
