What does g(n) equal

Mathematics

We are given the function: 
g(n) = 3 (\frac{7}{5} )^n

We need to find what g(-3) equals. 

What the question is asking is what is the resulting value after you plug in -3 as n to the function. Meaning you replace the n that is in the function with -3. 

g(-3) = 3( \frac{7}{5})^{-3}

Remember back to the order of operations. 

Parenthesis
Exponents
Multiplication
Division
Addition
Subtraction

For this problem we can keep the fraction as it is (unless you are permitted to use a calculator... if that is the case then just plug all that into a calculator) and keep going to the exponent. 

Negative exponents make fractions FLIP. So our fraction will look like this: (\frac{7}{5})^{-3} =  (\frac{5}{7})^{3}

Now that we have it without the negative exponent we need to distribute the cubed power to each number in the fraction (which is essentially the same as saying this: \frac{5}{7}* \frac{5}{7}* \frac{5}{7})

\frac{5^{3}}{7^{3}} =  \frac{125}{343}

We ARE NOT done! We still have this left: 
g(-3) = 3 \frac{125}{343}
Multiplying by 3 you get the following: 

\frac{375}{343}

So what does g(-3) equal? This right here: 

\frac{375}{343}

Describe the process of how to find the volume of a prism but in your own words
Anton [14]

Answer:

Please check explanations

Step-by-step explanation:

Here, we want to make a description

Mathematically, a prism is a solid shape with parallel bases, separated by a particular height

To find the volume of the prism, all we have to do is to find the area of one of the bases

After this, we then multiply the value obtained by the height of the prism. This gives the volume of the prism

X^2-18x=-72<br><br> I need two solutions. Thanks.
eimsori [14]

Hey Astute!

Solve: x^2 - 18x = -72

Solution:

x^2 − 18x − (−72) = −72 − (−72) (Subtract -72 from both sides of the equation)

x^2 − 18x + 72 = 0

(x − 6) (x − 12) = 0 (Factor left side)

x − 6 = 0 or x − 12 = 0 (factors have to equal 0)

6 - 6 = 0 or 12 - 12 = 0

Answer:

x = 6 or x = 12

Hope This Helps, Have a Great Day!
