Andre and Elena knew that after 28 days they would have 2²⁸ coins, but they wanted to find out how many coins that actually is. Andre wrote: 2 28 = 56. Elena said, "No, exponents mean repeated multiplication. It should be 28 28, which works out to be 784." Do you agree with either of them? Explain your reasoning.

I agree with none of them

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

Required

Who is correct?

When we apply law of indices to the above, it gives 2 multiplies by itself in 28 places

i.e.

---- in 28 places

Andre's interpretation of the expression is incorrect as:

Also, Elena's expression is incorrect.

This is so, because

Hence, both of them are incorrect and I agree with none of them

step-by-step explanation:

answer is 8x+24

area of vanessa's patio = length × width

given, length = (3x² + 5x + 10)

width = (x² - 3x - 1)

area of vanessa's patio = (3x² + 5x + 10)(x² - 3x - 1)

= 3x²(x² - 3x - 1) + 5x(x² - 3x - 1) + 10(x² - 3x - 1)

= 3x⁴ - 9x³ - 3x² + 5x³ - 15x² - 5x + 10x² - 30x - 10

= 3x⁴ - 4x³ - 8x² - 35x - 10

hence, expression of vanessa's patio = (3x⁴ - 4x³ - 8x² - 35x - 10)
