Hope you know that x^(-1) = 1/x  used this you get 

(-5x^3)^-2 = 1/(-5x^3)^2 = 1/{(-5^2)(x^6)} = 1/(25x^6)

hope helped

a^{-n}=\dfrac{1}{a^n}\\\\(a^n)^m=a^{n\cdot m}\\\\(a\cdot b)^n=a^n\cdot b^n\\------------------\\\\\left(-5x^3\right)^{-2}=\dfrac{1}{\left(-5x^3\right)^2}=\dfrac{1}{(-5)^2(x^3)^2}=\dfrac{1}{25x^{3\cdot2}}=\boxed{\dfrac{1}{25x^6}}

A plastic sun visor allows light to pass through but reduces the intensity of the light. the intensity is reduced by 5% if the p
irinina [24]

Answer: The equation is f(x) = 0.95^{x};

The piece of plastic has to have 10mm of thickness.

Step-by-step explanation: It is known that with 1 mm of thickness, 5% of the intensity is reduced. So, 95% of the light is transmitted.

For each milimetre added, "more" 95% of light is transmitted.

For example, if another milimetre of plastic is added, another 0.95 of light is transmitted:

0.95.0.95 = 0.9025 of light reach the visor

So, the model that relate thickness of plastic and intensity of light is:

f(x) = 0.95^{x}

in which:

f(x) is the intensity of light;

x is thickness in mm;

Using the equation, the thickness necessary to reduce intensity to 60% is:

f(x) = 0.95^{x}

0.6 = 0.95^{x}

log 0.6 = log 0.95^{x}

x. log (0.95) = log (0.6)

x = \frac{log 0.6}{log 0.95}

x = 9.95

x ≈ 10

The thickness necessary to reduce intensity of light to 60% is 10mm.
