Perform the calculations as follows.

1. 40y^{-1}, \, y=5.2
 = 40*y = 40*5.2
 = 208

2. \frac{1}{m^{-2}} (m+4),\, m=-8
 = m²(m+4)
 = (-8)²*(-8+4)
 = -256

3. (p² - 3)⁻², p=1
 = 1/(p² - 3)²
 = 1/(1 - 3)²
 = 0.25

4. \frac{(x-1)^{-2}}{(x+1)^{-2}}, \, x=2.5
 = \frac{(x+1)^{2}}{(x-1)^{2}}
 = 3.5²/1.5²
 = 5.444

5. y⁻³ - y⁻², y=2
 = 1/y³ - 1/y²
 = 1/8 - 1/4
 = -1/8

How do you add add fraction with a different denominator?
kenny6666 [7]

Find the LCM (least common multiple) of the denominators, and use that as the denominator for the two fractions.

Ex.

\frac{3}{4} +\frac{2}{3}

LCM (3, 4) is 12

\frac{9}{12} +\frac{8}{12}

=\frac{17}{12}

How to solve an expression with variables in the exponents?
gtnhenbr [62]

Answer:

  use logarithms

Step-by-step explanation:

Taking the logarithm of an expression with a variable in the exponent makes the exponent become a coefficient of the logarithm of the base.

__

You will note that this approach works well enough for ...

  a^(x+3) = b^(x-6) . . . . . . . . . . . variables in the exponents

  (x+3)log(a) = (x-6)log(b) . . . . . a linear equation after taking logs

but doesn't do anything to help you solve ...

  x +3 = b^(x -6)

There is no algebraic way to solve equations that are a mix of polynomial and exponential functions.

__

Some functions have been defined to help in certain situations. For example, the "product log" function (or its inverse) can be used to solve a certain class of equations with variables in the exponent. However, these functions and their use are not normally studied in algebra courses.

In any event, I find a graphing calculator to be an extremely useful tool for solving exponential equations.

The equation for a circle is ​x^2 − 8x + y^2 - 2y - 8 = 0
Ivanshal [37]

Answer:

B

Step-by-step explanation:

The equation of a circle in standard form is

(x - h)² + (y - k)² = r²

where (h, k) are the coordinates of the centre and r is the radius

To obtain this form use the method of completing the square

Given

x² - 8x + y² - 2y - 8 = 0 ( add 8 to both sides )

x² - 8x + y² - 2y = 8

add ( half the coefficient of the x/y terms )² to both sides

x² + 2(- 4)x + 16 + y² + 2(- 1)y + 1 = 8 + 16 + 1

(x - 4)² + (y - 1)² = 25 → B
