The exponent of a number says how many times to use the number in a multiplication.
For Example, In 8² , the 2 is the number of times 8 has to be multiplied. In this case It has to multiplied by itself 2 times, 8x8 = 64 so 8² = 64.
Another example is 9³ since the number above is 3 we have to multiply 9 three times, 9x9x9 = 729 which means 9³ = 729.
Hope this helps
F(x) = 2x + 1
To find the inverse of a function you just need to switch the x by y or vice-versa:
-> y = 2x + 1
-> x = 2y + 1
After that you isolate the y again:
-> 2y = x - 1
-> y = (x-1)/2
-> f^-1 (x) = (x-1)/2
Answer:
Answer:
<u>y = -2x + 7</u>
Explanation:
<em><u>y = mx + b</u></em>
<em><u /></em>
<em>m = slope</em>
<em>b = y-intercept</em>
<em>y = a given y coordinate</em>
<em>x = a corresponding x coordinate</em>
<em />
First, we need to find the slope (m).
1) (4, -1)
2) (2/3)
m = slope = = = = -2
plug in the values to the equation <u>y = mx + b</u>
<u />
-1 = -2(4) + b
-1 = -8 + b
7 = b
now, we can substitute in m and b into the equation y = mx + b
<u><em>y = -2x + 7</em></u>
