Sh*t i had the answer but i lost my train of thought sorry :(
Answer:
when you multiply a whole number by itself it will obviously get bigger.
4 to the 2nd power equals 16 because 4x4 = 16
if you were to multiply a smaller number though, it wouldn't get as big.
Each number you put to the same exponent will not get bigger at the same rate since each number isnt being multiplied by the same thing.
ex. 4 and 6 are raised to the second power both dont get multiplied by the same number 4 is multiplied by 4, and 6 by 6, therefore the bigger the number the bigger it grows.
Fractions get smaller for this reason when you have the fraction 2/3 raised to the second, both numbers must be raised. 2 to the second equals 4 while 3 to the second is 9.
1/2 to the second would then equal 1/4 since 1 to the second equals 1 and 2 to the second equals 4.
Step-by-step explanation:
I'll go by boxes (top statement box is #1, top reason box is #2, etc.)
If you don't have enough boxes, you can omit (remove) the first 2 I wrote, which is the given
1. 8y = 9x - 14; y = 5
2. Given
3. 8(5) = 9x - 14
4. Substitution
5. 40 = 9x - 14
6. Simplification (or multiplication)
7. 54 = 9x
8. Additive property of equality
9. 6 = x
10. Division property of equality
11. x = 6
12. Symmetrical property of equality
Hope this helps (:
Answer: the slope 6
Step-by-step explanation:
with the slope formula you can see the slope of the line right in the equation so therefore it is 6.
