Answer:

<h3>He should have found 8 as the exponent, not –8.</h3>

Step-by-step explanation:

Given the expression simplified by Pablo as (2^{-4})^{-2}

On simplification we have;

According to one of the law of indices (a^{m})^{n} = a^{mn}

Applying this law to the question will give;

(2^{-4})^{-2}\\=2^{-4*-2}  \\\= 2^{8}

Based on the calculation above, the exponent of 2 is 8 which means that Pablo should have found 8 as the exponent, not –8.

ASAP!! PLEASE I NEED HELP!!
sergey [27]

Answer:

If the length is 50 yd, the width is  60 yd.

If the length is 40 yd, the width is  75 yd.

If the length is 48 yd, the width is  62.5 yd.

If the length is 36 yd, the width is 83.33 yd.

The length and the width vary inversely because when the length decreased the width increased

Step-by-step explanation:

<em>The area of any rectangle A = L × W, where</em>

  • L is its length
  • W is its width

<em>The relation is direct proportion if the quotient of two quantity equals constant  (y/x = k, when y and x increased) and inverse if the product of the two quantity equals constant (yx = k, when x increased y decreased and vice versa)  </em>

∵ The area of the rectangular plot of land = 3000 yards²

∴ A = 3000

∵ Its length = 50 yards

∴ L = 50

→ Substitute them in the rule above to find W

∵ 3000 = 50 × W

→ Divide both sides by 50 to find W

∴ 60 = W

∴ The width of the plot is 60 yards

∵ Its length = 40 yards

∴ L = 40

→ Substitute them in the rule above to find W

∵ 3000 = 40 × W

→ Divide both sides by 40 to find W

∴ 75 = W

∴ The width of the plot is 75 yards

∵ Its length = 48 yards

∴ L = 48

→ Substitute them in the rule above to find W

∵ 3000 = 48 × W

→ Divide both sides by 48 to find W

∴ 62.5 = W

∴ The width of the plot is 62.5 yards

∵ Its length = 36 yards

∴ L = 36

→ Substitute them in the rule above to find W

∵ 3000 = 36 × W

→ Divide both sides by 36 to find W

∴ 83. 33 = W

∴ The width of the plot is  83.33 yards

∵ The area is a constant value

∵ A = LW

→ The product of L and W equals the constant value, can you discover

   that from the values of L and W

∴  The length and the width of the rectangular plot vary inversely

A culture started with 5000 bacteria. after 4 hours, it grew to 6000. Predict how many bacteria will be present after 17 hours
kykrilka [37]

Answer:

A culture started with 5000 bacteria. after 4 hours, it grew to 6000.

=> Increasing rate = difference/time = (6000 - 5000)/4 = 250 bacteria/hour

=> The number of bacteria after 17 hours:

N = 5000 + 250 x 17 = 9250 bacteria

Hope this helps!
