8^3*8^-5*8^y=1/8^2, what is the value of y in the product of powers below?

Aleks04 [339]

For this case we have that by definition of multiplication of powers of the same base, the same base is placed and the exponents are added:

$a ^ n * a ^ m = a ^ {n + m}$

So, we can rewrite the given expression as:

$8 ^ {3-5 + y} = \frac {1} {8 ^ 2}\\8 ^ {- 2 + y} = \frac {1} {8 ^ 2}$

So, if $y = 0$ :

$8 ^ {- 2} = \frac {1} {8 ^ 2}\\\frac {1} {8 ^ 2} = \frac {1} {8 ^ 2}$

Equality is met!

Answer:

$y = 0$

What value(s) of x will make each equation below true? <br><br> 2x – 6 = 3x +1-x-7

puteri [66]

The answer is any value that you put in for x would make the equation true. When you simplify the whole equation it looks like this: 2x - 6 = 2x - 6, therefor you could replace x with any value.
