Answer:

Option (b) is correct.

(2^\frac{1}{4} )^4=2^\frac{1}{4} \times 2^\frac{1}{4}\times 2^\frac{1}{4}\times 2^\frac{1}{4}=2^{(\frac{1}{4}+ \frac{1}{4}+ \frac{1}{4}+ \frac{1}{4} )}=2^{1}=2

Step-by-step explanation:

Given: (2^\frac{1}{4} )^4

We have too choose the correct simplification for the given statement.

Consider (2^\frac{1}{4} )^4

Using property of exponents, (a^m)^n=a^m\times a^m\times a^m\times ....\times (n\ times)

We have,

(2^\frac{1}{4} )^4=2^\frac{1}{4} \times 2^\frac{1}{4}\times 2^\frac{1}{4}\times 2^\frac{1}{4}

Again applying property of exponents  a^m\times a^m=a^{n+m}

We have,

(2^\frac{1}{4} )^4=2^{(\frac{1}{4}+ \frac{1}{4}+ \frac{1}{4}+ \frac{1}{4} )}

Simplify, we have,

(2^\frac{1}{4} )^4=2^{\frac{4}{4}}

we get,

(2^\frac{1}{4} )^4=2^{1}=2

Thus, (2^\frac{1}{4} )^4=2

Option (b) is correct.

(2^{1/4})^4=2^{1/4}.2^{1/4}.2^{1/4}.2^{1/4}=2^{1/4+1/4+1/4+1/4}=2^{4/4}=2

There you use these properties:

1) definition of the power=> (2^{1/4})^4 =2^{1/4}.2^{1/4}.2^{1/4}.2^1/4}

2) multiplication of powers with the same base:

a^n.a^m.a^p.a^q=a^{n+m+p+q}

3) sum of fractions: 1/4 +1/4 +1/4 +1/4 = 4/4

4) simplification of fractions: 4/4 = 1

Solve the system of equations.
algol [13]
8x + 5(-4x) = 24
8x - 20x = 24
-12x = 24
x = -2

y = -4(-2)
y = 8

Therefore, the point of intersection is (-2,8).

two trains leaves stations 320miles apart at the same time and travel toward eachother. One train travels at 110 miles per hour
I am Lyosha [343]

x/110 = (320-x)/90

<span> Cross multiply</span>

90x = 35200-110x

200x=35200

X = 35200/200 = 176 (distance traveled by train going 110 mph

176/110 = 1.6 hours = 1 hour and 36 minutes

 

Check: 110*1.6 = 176, 90*1.6 = 144

176+144 = 320

it will take 1.6 hours ( 1 hour 36 minutes) for the trains to meet

The triangle will be rotated with the rule of (x,y) → (-y,x). The image will be congruent to the pre-image, the side lengths will be the same and the angles too.

Sarah rides her horse for 2 1/6 hrs with a constant speed of 6 km/hr and then for another 2 hours and 5 minutes with a constant
NemiM [27]
The complete question is
<span>Sarah rides her horse for 2 1/6 hrs with a constant speed of 6 km/hr and then for another 2 hours and 5 minutes with a constant speed of 12 km/hr what is her average speed for the total trip?</span>

we know that
speed=distance/time

1) Sarah rides her horse for 2 1/6 hrs with a constant speed of 6 km/hr
time=2 1/6 hrs----> 13/6 hrs
speed=6 km/h
distance=speed*time----> 6*(13/6)---> 13 km

2)for another 2 hours and 5 minutes with a constant speed of 12 km/hr
time=2hrs+5 minutes----> 2+(5/60)--> 125/60 hrs
speed=12 km/hrs
distance=speed*time----> 12*(125/60)---> 25 km

3) find the average speed for the total trip
total distance=13 km+25 km----> 38 km
total time=(13/6)+(125/60)----> (10*13+125)/60----> 4.25 hours
speed=38/4.25----> 8.94 km/hrs

the answer is
8.94 km/hrs
