Is a positive integer raised to a negative power always positive
Evgesh-ka [11]

Answer:

Yes

Step-by-step explanation:

Many students gets confused with these exponential problems, they often get misguided but understand that there is nothing to be confused of.

When you have a negative number, you just take the reciprocal of the whole exponent number.

What is a reciprocal?

Let's take an integer for example, let's take the number 3.

The reciprocal for 3 is (1/3)

Let's take an other number, let's take 2/3

The reciprocal for 2/3 is (3/2)

In conclusion, we just reverse the denominator and the numerator or just switch it.

We take 3 as (3/1) and that is the reason, the reciprocal would be (1/3)

Now, coming to the negative integers. Taking an example:

(2)⁻¹

This would be become (1/2¹) = (1/2)

Hence, the result of a negative integer is positive but would be a fraction.

Hope I helped!

Find the inverse of the function f f (x )<br><br> equals 9 x + 7
MrMuchimi

<em>Note: Your question seems a little bit ambiguous. So, I am assuming the given function f(x)=9x+7.</em>

<em>Thus, I am solving based on it. It would still clear your concept. </em>

Answer:

The inverse of f(x)=9x+7

  • \frac{x-7}{9}

Step-by-step explanation:

Given the function

f(x)=9 x + 7

A function g is the inverse of function f if for y=f(x), x=g(y)

Replace x with y

x=9y+7

solve for y

9y=x-7

y=\:\frac{x-7}{9}

Therefore,

The inverse of f(x)=9x+7 is:

  • \frac{x-7}{9}

i.e.

\mathrm{Inverse\:of}\:9x+7:\quad \frac{x-7}{9}

Answer:

<h2>58°</h2>

Step-by-step explanation:

We will use the tangent function since we know the opposite and adjacent sides.

Tangent = opposite/adjacent

Tan(e) = 16/10

Tan(e) = 1.6

Use the inverse tangent function to find the angle.

Arctan (1.6) = 57.9946168

Rounding this we get: 58°
