What is the quotient in simplified form ? Need help please

Mathematics
1 answer:
Gre4nikov [31]3 years ago
8 0

Answer:

  -\dfrac{4a^{12}b^8}{5}

Step-by-step explanation:

The applicable rules of exponents are ...

  \dfrac{1}{a^{-b}}=a^b\\\\a^ba^c=a^{b+c}

Your ratio simplifies to ...

  \dfrac{-8a^8b^{-2}}{10a^{-4}b^{-10}}=-\dfrac{4}{5}a^{8-(-4)}b^{-2-(-10)}\\\\=-\dfrac{4a^{12}b^8}{5}

_____

Please note that simplifying the constants, -8/10 to -4/5, eliminates half the answer choices. Since exponents are only multiplied when a power is raised to a power, you can pretty much eliminate the second choice as being unreasonable. ((a^b)^c = a^(bc))

Which describes the first step in solving the equation 4x - 7 = -15?
GalinKa [24]

Answer:

Add 7 to both sides

Step-by-step explanation:

You would need to add 7 to both sides to cancel out the 7 on the right side of the equation to get x one step closer to being by itself.

Then you would get 4x = -8.

Next divide by 4 on both sides to get x by itself so do the inverse operation of what 4 was doing to x.

x = -2

find the value of each variable in the circle to the right. the dot represents the center of the circle.
gladu [14]

We have been given an image of a circle. We are asked to find the value of each variable.

We can see that angle b corresponds to diameter of circle. We know that the measure of an angle that is inscribed to the diameter of a circle is 90 degrees . Therefore, the value of b will be 90.

we can see that angle is an inscribed angle of arc 99 degrees. We know that measure of an inscribed angle is half the measure of inscribed arc.

a=\frac{1}{2}\cdot 99

a=49.5

Therefore, the value of a is 49.5 units.

We know that measure of all angles of a triangle is 180 degrees. The measure of 3rd angle will be half the measure of c, so we can set an equation as:

a+b+\frac{1}{2}c=180

49.5+90+\frac{1}{2}c=180

139.5+\frac{1}{2}c=180

139.5-139.5+\frac{1}{2}c=180-139.5

\frac{1}{2}c=40.5

\frac{1}{2}c\cdot 2=40.5\cdot 2

c=81

Therefore, the value of c is 81.

What is the distance (in units) between points C and D? Round your answer to the nearest hundredth. A. 4.54 B. 5.00 C. 5.83 D. 3
Kryger [21]

Answer:

5.83 = CD

Step-by-step explanation:

We can use the pythagorean theorem to solve

The legs are the x and y distances

x = (1- -4) = 5 units and y = 3 units

a^2+ b^2 = c^2

5^2 + 3^2 = c^2

25+9 = c^2

34 = c^2

Taking the square root of each side

sqrt(34) = c  which is the distance from C to D

5.830951895 = CD

5.83 = CD

Please help me with these rotation problem.​
FrozenT [24]

Answer:

  see below

Step-by-step explanation:

In the attachment, the points are listed in the order given in the problem statement. (They are listed to the right of the "rotation matrix", with x-coordinates above y-coordinates.)

__

I really don't like to do repetitive calculations, so I try to use a graphing calculator or spreadsheet whenever possible. Angles are measured CCW.

As always, the rotation transformations are ...

  180° — (x, y) ⇒ (-x, -y)

  270° — (x, y) ⇒ (y, -x)
