Fourteen less than three fourths of a number is negative eight. Find the number

Mathematics

Lapatulllka [165]3 years ago

The word "is" in this kind of problem typically means "=", so we know that something =-8. Since we're finding the number, we should start with the closest thing in the phrase given to that number. In this case, it's 3/4x. Finally, since we have the "14 less than", we need to add that in. Your answer is:

3/4x-14=-8. Now we can just solve!
       +14   +14

3/4x=6.
*4/3   *4/3

x=8.

Which expression is equivalent to (81x4y16)12 for all positive values of x and y?<br> 40.5x4y16
IrinaVladis [17]

Answer:

(81x^4y^{16})^{\frac{1}{2}} = 9 x^2 y^8

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

(81x^4y^{16})^{\frac{1}{2}}

Required

Determine an equivalent expression

Express 81 as 9^2

(9^2x^4y^{16})^{\frac{1}{2}}

Apply law of indices

9^2^{\frac{1}{2}} * x^4^{\frac{1}{2}} * y^{16}^{\frac{1}{2}}

9^{\frac{2*1}{2}} * x^{\frac{4*1}{2}} * y^{\frac{16*1}{2}}

9^{\frac{2}{2}} * x^{\frac{4}{2}} * y^{\frac{16}{2}}

9^1 * x^2 * y^8

9 * x^2 * y^8

9 x^2 y^8

Hence:

(81x^4y^{16})^{\frac{1}{2}} = 9 x^2 y^8
