B is called "the vertical intercept" and is the value of y when x = 0. Something like an initial value!

Violet made cookies for the bake sale. 7/10 of the cookies are chocolate chip. 3/4 of the remaining cookies are sugar. What frac

FromTheMoon [43]

We know that 7/10 of the cookies are chocolate chip, so that means there are 3/10 of the cookies left.
We now want to find what 3/4 of 3/10 is.
We can do this by multiplying both fractions
3/4x3/10 (we just multiply across) to get 9/40.
We cannot simplify this answer, so our final answer is 9/40 of the cookies are sugar cookies.

Answer:

C. $\huge\frac{1}{3x {y}^{2} {z}^{4}}$

Step-by-step explanation:

$(9 {x}^{2} {y}^{4} {z}^{8} )^{ - \frac{1}{2} } \\ \\ = ( {3}^{2} {x}^{2} {y}^{4} {z}^{8} )^{ - \frac{1}{2} } \\ \\ = \frac{1}{( {3}^{2} {x}^{2} {y}^{4} {z}^{8} )^{ \frac{1}{2} }} \\ \\ = \frac{1}{(3x {y}^{2} {z}^{4})^{2 \times \frac{1}{2} } } \\ \\ = \frac{1}{3x {y}^{2} {z}^{4}} \\ \\ \red{ \bold{ \therefore \: (9 {x}^{2} {y}^{4} {z}^{8} )^{ - \frac{1}{2} } = \frac{1}{3x {y}^{2} {z}^{4}} }}\\$
