Micheal has 5^(2) boxes. there are 5^1 of apples in each box. when empty, a box weighs 5^-2 kg. what is the total weight of micheal's boxes, when empty?

1 Kilogram.

Step-by-step explanation:

You know that the weight of one box is kilograms.

You also know that Micheal has boxes.

If you want to know the total weight of Micheal's boxes when empty, you need to multiply the weight of one box by the total number of boxes that Micheal has.

You need to remember the Product of powers property:

Then:

Remember that:

Then, the result is:

set each factor equal to 0

4x-3 = 0

2x-1 = 0

solve for x.

4x-3=0

4x=3

x= 3/4

solve for x. 

2x-1= 0

2x= 1

x= 1/2

your answer should be 1/2 is less than or equal to x and 3/4 is greater than or equal to x
