If a base is negative, how will you know whether the answer is positive or negative before evaluating it?

2 answers:

Whether the answer is positive or negative depends on whether the exponent is odd or even. An odd exponent results in a negative value. An even exponent results in a positive value.

Xy = –16. What is the constant of variation for this relationship?

olganol [36]

Direct variation is y=kx and inverse variation is y=k/x, in this case:

y=-16/x

So this is an inverse variation with a constant of -16

The Knicks and Nets have a total 30 players.

Blababa [14]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

From the problem statement, we can set up the following two equations:

$K + N = 30$

$20K + 10N = 500$

where $K$ is the number of Knicks players, and $N$ is the number of Nets players.

We can substitute the first equation into the second and solve for $K$

$K + N = 30$

$N = 30 - K$

$20K + 10N = 500$

$20K + 10(30 - K) = 500$

$20K + 300 - 10K = 500$

$10K + 300 = 500$

$10K = 200$

$K = 20$

A projectile is launched from the ground at an angle of theta above the horizontal with an initial speed of v in ft/s. The rang

VARVARA [1.3K]

Answer:

$\theta=24.4^\circ$

Step-by-step explanation:

The formula you wrote has the fraction the other way around. You can find that the range of a projectile is in reality approximated by the equation $x=\frac{v^2}{g} sin(2\theta)=\frac{v^2}{32ft/s^2} sin(2\theta)$ , where we will use ft for distances.

From the given equation we have then $\frac{x32ft/s^2}{v^2} =sin(2\theta)$ , which means $\theta=\frac{Arcsin(\frac{x32ft/s^2}{v^2})}{2}$ since the arcsin is the inverse function of the sin.

Since we have x = 170 ft and v = 85 ft/s, we can substitute these values from the equation written, and we will have $\theta=\frac{Arcsin(\frac{(170ft)(32ft/s^2)}{(85ft/s)^2})}{2}$ , and from now on we have just to use a calculator, obtaining $\theta=\frac{Arcsin(0.75294117647)}{2}=\frac{48.84579804^\circ}{2}=24.4^\circ$
