The value of x-y is negative, and x and y are both positive. What can you conclude about the values of x

1 answer:

3 0

Well for two positive numbers subtracted to equal a negative number, the first number must have a value that is less than the second number. (Ex. 3-4= -1) In this case, you can conclude that x is less than y! (x<y)

Which of the following is the quotient of b and a?

vlabodo [156]

$\bf 19^{\frac{7}{4}}\cdot \sqrt[a]{19^b}=19^{\frac{5}{2}}\sqrt{19}\\\\
-----------------------------\\\\
a^{\frac{{ n}}{{ m}}} \implies \sqrt[{ m}]{a^{ n}} \qquad \qquad
\sqrt[{ m}]{a^{ n}}\implies a^{\frac{{ n}}{{ m}}}\\\\
-----------------------------\\\\
thus\qquad 19^{\frac{7}{4}}\cdot 19^{\frac{b}{a}}=19^{\frac{5}{2}}\cdot 19^{\frac{1}{2}}\implies 19^{\frac{7}{4}+\frac{b}{a}}=19^{\frac{5}{2}+\frac{1}{2}}
\\\\\\
$

$\bf 19^{\frac{7}{4}+\frac{b}{a}}=19^{\frac{6}{2}}\implies 19^{\frac{7}{4}+\frac{b}{a}}=19^3\impliedby 
\begin{array}{llll}
\textit{same base, thus}\\
\textit{exponents must be the same}
\end{array}
\\\\\\
\cfrac{7}{4}+\cfrac{b}{a}=3\implies \cfrac{b}{a}=3-\cfrac{7}{4}$
