Answer:
C
Step-by-step explanation:
Problem A
Usually the number of bits in a byte is 8 or 16 or 32 and recently 64. You don't have to write a formula to restrict it to this number of bits. You are not asked to do so. The general formula is 2^n - 1 for the problem of Millie and her golden keys. Somehow the system can be made to choose the right number of bits. Apple IIe s for example, used 8 bits and there was a location that told the processor that fact.
2^n - 1 <<<<< Answer
Problem B
In this case n = 4
2^n - 1 = 2^4 - 1 = 16 - 1 = 15
Millie can collect 15 keys <<<<<< Answer
Answer:
<em>I misunderstood the question before, but here are two expressions equivalent to -4/7 - 8/9 + 4/7 - 9/8. </em>
71/72 + 70/72 +4/72
-1/7 - 3/7 - 5/9 - 3/9 + 2/7 +2/7 - 4/8 - 5/8
<em>Solved: -2 1/72</em>
Step-by-step explanation:
I could simply take the answer you get when combining all of the fractions, and I can make a new expression out of it. For example, I could use: 71/72+ 70/72+4/72. Or I could break apart all of the original fractions into smaller fractions. Example: -1/7 - 3/7 - 5/9 - 3/9 + 2/7 +2/7 - 4/8 - 5/8.
<em>To solve: Start by combining -4/7 and 4/7 to make 0, shortening your equation. Then continue by making the fractions remaining, 8/9 and -9/8, have a common denominator. To do this, we multiply -8/9 by 8, and -9/8 by 9. Then, we have -64/72 and -81/72. Then, we can combine the numerators of the fractions, as they have common denominators, and we get the fraction -145/72. We can then simplify this to -2 1/72.</em>

Answer: 
This is 17 to the 1/2 power
The rule is
![\sqrt[n]{x} = x^{1/n}](https://tex.z-dn.net/?f=%5Csqrt%5Bn%5D%7Bx%7D%20%3D%20x%5E%7B1%2Fn%7D)
the n is the index of the root. For square roots, n = 2, so,
![\sqrt[n]{x} = x^{1/n}\\\\\sqrt[2]{17} = 17^{1/2}\\\\\sqrt{17} = 17^{1/2}\\](https://tex.z-dn.net/?f=%5Csqrt%5Bn%5D%7Bx%7D%20%3D%20x%5E%7B1%2Fn%7D%5C%5C%5C%5C%5Csqrt%5B2%5D%7B17%7D%20%3D%2017%5E%7B1%2F2%7D%5C%5C%5C%5C%5Csqrt%7B17%7D%20%3D%2017%5E%7B1%2F2%7D%5C%5C)
4 + 6 + 8 =18
18/3 = 6
mean = 6
