When we are trying to square a number say x, to x²,then we multiply the number x with number of powers

here since it is x² we multiply x × x

if it is x³,then x × x × x

Re-write the equation without the h component.

levacccp [35]

Answer:

$f(x) = 2[\frac{3^x}{9}] + 2$

$f(x) = 8(4)^x$

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

$f(x) = 2(3)^{x-2} + 2$

$f(x) = \frac{1}{2}(4)^{x+2}$

Required

Remove the h component

In a function, the h component is highlighted as:

$f(x) = a^{x+h}$

So, we have:

$f(x) = 2(3)^{x-2} + 2$

Split the exponents using the following law of indices:

$a^m/a^n = a^{m-n}$

$f(x) = 2*\frac{3^x}{3^2} + 2$

$f(x) = 2*\frac{3^x}{9} + 2$

$f(x) = 2[\frac{3^x}{9}] + 2$

<em>The h component has been removed</em>

$f(x) = \frac{1}{2}(4)^{x+2}$

Split the exponent using the following law of indices

$a^{m+n} =a^m * a^n$

So, we have:

$f(x) = \frac{1}{2}(4)^x * 4^2$

Express 4^2 as 16

$f(x) = \frac{1}{2}(4)^x * 16$

Divide 16 by 2

$f(x) = 8(4)^x$

The sum of 5 consecutive even numbers is 20

vladimir2022 [97]

Step-by-step explanation:

Let the 1st number be x

2nd number = x + 2

3rd number = x + 4

4th number = x + 6

5th number = x + 8

x + x + 2 + x + 4 + x + 6 + x + 8 = 20

5x + 20 = 20

5x = 20 - 20

5x = 0

x = 0 ÷ 5

x = 0

The 5 consecutive integers are

0, 2, 4, 6, 8

Help please my teacher isn't the greatest.

Schach [20]

Answer:

x = 9.5

Step-by-step explanation:

We see that the entire length of DF is equal to 34. That means segment DE and segment EF must combine to equal 34:

3x - 6 + x + 2 = 34

4x - 6 + 2 = 34

4x - 4 = 34

4x = 38

x = 9.5

Gail practices swimming for 1 and 1 fourth hours swimming every day how much time does she practice in a week

Lorico [155]

If Gail practises swimming for 1 and 1/4 hours a day, then in a week she'll do:

1 1/4 * 7 = 5/4 * 7 = 35/4 = 8 3/4 [hours]

In other words she'll practice 8 hours and 45 minutes a week (assuming that she's still practicing on weekends).
