A student in your class says the following. "I'm having a hard time with this lesson, because the rules for rational exponents are so different than the rules for integer exponents." 1.

If the diameter is 8 than the radius is 4 because 2r or 2*radius equals the diameter. 4*2=8. 8/2=4.

Okay so n is going to represent our first number. since the second number of five times greater than n, the second number will be represented as 5n. for us to figure out the two  numbers we need to have  the value of n first. this is going to be done by adding the two numbers together, n and 5n. it can be simplified as 6n, which the problem states is equal to 72. divide 72 by 6n and you can solve for n.  n+5n=726n=72n=(72/6)n=12  now that we know the value of n, we have to multiply 5 times 12 which equals 60. so our two numbers/integers are 12 and 60

The answer is 1040 because the zeros arent significant
