Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

You are multiplying two powers with the same base, 4, and exponents 7 and -5.

When you multiply two powers with the same base, you keep the same base, and you add the exponents. In this example, instead of adding the exponents and ending up with an exponent of 2 since 7 + (-5) is 2, the exponents were multiplied.

4^7 x 4^-5 = 4^(7 + (-5)) = 4^2

4^-35 is not equivalent to 4^2.

Answer:

Gregoire is correct; the diameter is a chord that passes through the center of the sphere.

Step-by-step explanation:

A sphere is a geometrical shape formed from a circle. Some of its parts are: diameter, center, radius circumference, etc.

The center of a sphere is a point at its middle. The diameter is a straight line, e.g a chord, that is drawn from one point on the circumference of a sphere to another point and passes through its center. While radius is a line that is from the center of the sphere to a point on its circumference.

A diameter is twice of a radius, so that:

Radius = $\frac{Diameter}{2}$
