Answer:

1/2

Step-by-step explanation:

$\frac{1}{12}+\frac{5}{12} = \frac{6}{12}\\ \\ \frac{6}{12} = \frac{1}{2}$ They are both equivalent fractions. If you divide the numerator and denominator both by 6, you get 1/2.

What is slope-intercept form? Why do we write equations using this form?

Brums [2.3K]

Slope intercept form is y=mx+b
m=slope
b=y-intercept

the slope is the rate of change of the graph, basically rise/run (change in y divided by change in x)

the y intercept is where the graph intercepts the y axis

we usually use this form because we can find the slope and find where it hits the y axis.
there are other forms that may be helpful later on, but this one is usually the easiest form to find from a graph

Rewrite the function f of x equals 7 times one half to the 3 times x power using the properties of exponents.

Artist 52 [7]

Answer:

f of x equals 7 times one eighth to the x power

Step-by-step explanation:

Given phrase,

function f of x equals 7 times one half to the 3 times x power,

$\implies f(x) = 7(\frac{1}{2})^{3x}$

By the power to power property of exponent,

That is,

$(a^m)^n=a^{m.n}$

$f(x) = 7((\frac{1}{2})^3)^x$

$f(x) = 7(\frac{1}{8})^x$

= f of x equals 7 times one eighth to the x power

Evaluating a piece-wise function. 10 pts

kozerog [31]

1. Since -4 doesn’t equal -2, we will use the first function. All you have to do is plug in -4 to x, and you should get

-3

2. -2=-2, so we will use the second function to get the answer of

3

3. Once again we will be using the first function, so just plug 5 into the answer to get

-7.5

Hope this helped :)
