One nice thing about this situation is that you’ve been given everything in the same base. To review a little on the laws of exponents, when you have two exponents with the same base being:
– Multiplied: Add their exponents
– Divided: Subtract their exponents
We can see that in both the numerator and denominator we have exponents *multiplied* together, and the product in the numerator is being *divided* by the product in the detonator, so that translates to *summing the exponents on the top and bottom and then finding their difference*. Let’s throw away the twos for a moment and just focus on the exponents. We have
[11/2 + (-7) + (-5)] - [3 + 1/2 + (-10)]
For convenience’s sake, I’m going to turn 11/2 into the mixed number 5 1/2. Summing the terms in the first brackets gives us
5 1/2 + (-7) + (-5) = - 1 1/2 + (-5) = -6 1/2
And summing the terms in the second:
3 + 1/2 + (-10) = 3 1/2 + (-10) = -6 1/2
Putting those both into our first question gives us -6 1/2 - (-6 1/2), which is 0, since any number minus itself gives us 0.
Now we can bring the 2 back into the mix. The 0 we found is the exponent the 2 is being raised to, so our answer is
2^0, which is just 1.
The answer is 10 1/2.
First you need to convert 4/5 and 7/10 so the denominator is the same. 4/5=8/10, 7/10 stays the same.
Now we add= 6 8/10 +3 7/10 =9 15/10.
9 15/10=10 5/10=10 1/2.
Hope this helps and hope you have a great day and please make brainiest
Answer:
6 hours
Step-by-step explanation:
because if they work together it will be 9 hours slower than Kelsey's time alone.
not sure if correct
1/2X+4=X-4
1/2X+8=X
8=1/2X
16=X
(Pick one of the equations )
y=1/2X+4
y=(1/2)(16)+4
y=12
point: (16,12)
<span>The line goes through the points (4,-3) and (0,-2), so its gradient is (-2-(-3))/(0-4) = -1/4. The y-intercept is -2 because f(0)=-2. So the equation of the line is y = -1/4 x - 2.This can be represented by the linear function f(x) = (-1/4)x - 2.
The composite function ff is given by ff(x) = f(-1/4 x - 2) = (-1/4)((-1/4)x - 2) - 2 = x/16 - 3/2.</span>
