Simplify completely. (w^15/w^5)^4

Step-by-step explanation:

To simplify recall exponent rules:

1.An exponent is only a short cut for multiplication. It simplifies how we write the expression.

2.When we multiply terms with the same bases, we add exponents.

3.When we divide terms with the same bases, we subtract exponents.

4.When we have a base to the exponent of 0, it is 1.

5.A negative exponent creates a fraction.

6.When we raise an exponent to an exponent, we multiply exponents.

7.When we have exponents with parenthesis, we apply it to everything in the parenthesis.

We will use these rules to simplify.

Use rule #3 to simplify inside the parenthesis first.

Now simplify the exponent of 4 using rule 6.

the final amount you will pay is $68.04.

the tip is determined by the pre-tax amount, so we calculate the tip based on the original bill, not after we've added sales tax.

to find the tip:

we can divide 54.00 by 100 to get 1% of 54. then we multiply that by 18.

54 / 100 = .54

.54 x 18 = 9.72

tip = 9.72$

to find the tax:

we can divide 54.00 by 100 to get 1% of 54. then we can multiply that by 8 to get 8%.

54 / 100 = .54

.54 x 8 = 4.32

tax= 4.32

now we can add the tip and tax to the bill to get our total.

54 + 9.72 + 4.32 = 68.04

total: $68.04
