how many people were called in all? explain.

THANK YOU BEFOREHAND IM STRUGGLING SO HARD RN

Respuesta :

Number of people called at 6 o clock using a base and exponent is 6^2

Number of people called at 8 o clock using a base and exponent is 6^3

Given data

At 4 o clock, Devon called 6 friends

At 6 o clock, each of his friends called 6 other friends

At 8'o clock, each of those friends called 6 of their friends

How to write expression to represent the number of people called at 6 o clock using a base and exponent.

Let the friends Devin called at 4 o clock be represented by x

such that 6 friends will be = x + x + x + x + x + x = 6x

At 6 o clock, each of his friends called 6 other friends this means that each x called 6 friends assuming y this time, such that: y represents the number of friends called at 6 o clock by each x

each x called 6y this will lead to a total of

6y + 6y + 6y + 6y + 6y + 6y = 36y

Therefore 36 friends were called at 6 o clock which is equal to 6 * 6 = 6^2

using base and exponent we have

base = 6 and exponents = 2

How to write expression to represent the number of people called at 8 o clock using a base and exponent.

Each of the 36 friends called their 6 friends again hence the total calls made is 36 * 6 = 216

using base and exponent

36 * 6 = 216

6^2 * 6^1 = 216

6^(2 + 1 ) = 216

6^3 = 216

base = 6

exponents = 3
