The expression is equivalent to .
To rewrite the expression using a single positive exponent, we can use the properties of exponents.
Recall the property of exponents that says . This means that when you have the same base raised to different exponents and they are multiplied, you can add the exponents.
Now, simplify the exponent:
Recall another property of exponents that states . This means that when you have a negative exponent, you can rewrite it as the reciprocal of the base raised to the positive exponent.
So, the expression is equivalent to .

D. 480 square inches
Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
The trapezoid is attached.
Remember, the perimeter is the sum of all sides. But, in this case, we don't know the lenght of all sides. So, we need to find them.
Notice that the missing side on the left is congruent to the vertical leg of the right triangle. So, we use the Pythagorean Theorem to find it. Also, observe that the horizontal leg of the right triangle is 6 feet long.
Now, we can sum all sides to find the perimeter
Therefore, the perimeter of the figure is 50 feet.
