So, we are given 5^8. It was happy and content. But then... we had to write it as a quotient of two exponential terms with the same base in four different ways and use negative or zero exponents and ahhhhhh!!!

... anyways...

We'll build a quotient of two exponential terms with the same base 5. Something like this:

5^a / 5^b

We need them to make 5^8 when we are done. I'll first use a zero exponent.

[1] Now, zero exponents are nice since they make things equal 1. Like 5^0 = 1. Well, obviously, 5^8 / 1 = 5^8. So, our first quotient can be:

5^8 / 5^0

Done.

[2] Let's try this on its head. This one's a little weird. Remember that negative exponents flip things upside down. So 5^-8 = 1/5^8    and   1/5^-8 = 5^8 for example. In fact... that's the answer!

5^0 / 5^-8 = 5^8

Done.

[3] Let's try to not use 0s or 8s. We can be clever and do something like this:

5^-1 / 5^-9

What the heck is that? Well, we just flip them and get:

5^-1 / 5^-9 = 5^9 / 5^1 = 5^8

Done.

[4] Can you come up with one last trick on your own? Try it!

Select all the sets of ordered pairs that the graph of the equation y − 1 = −2(x − 2) contains.
ExtremeBDS [4]

<u>The sets of ordered pairs that the graph of the equation y − 1 = −2(x − 2) contains:</u>

  • (0, 5) and (−2, 9)
  • (−1, 7) and (2, 1)

Answer: Option B and C

<u>Step-by-step explanation:</u>

Given that  the equation of line is y - 1 = -2 (x - 2) . Now after solving the above equation, we can write the above equation as

                    y = - 2 x + 5

Substitute the coordinates of each set of given ordered pairs into the above equation to find out which belong to the graph of that given equation

A.(0, −2) and (1, 3)

-2 = -2(0)+5 which gives -2 = 5

3 = -2(1)+5 which gives 3=3 and denotes not contain the set of ordered pairs

B. (0, 5) and (−2, 9)

5 = -2(0)+5 which gives 5=5  

9= -2(-2)+5 which gives 9=9 and denotes the set of ordered pairs

C. (−1, 7) and (2, 1)

7 = -2(-1)+5 which gives 7=7

1 = -2(2 )+5 which gives 1=1 and denotes the set of ordered pairs

D. (3, −1) and (2, −1)

-1 = -2(3)+5 which gives -1 = -1

-1 = -2(2)+5 which gives -1 = 1 and denotes not contain the set of ordered pairs

E. (1, 2) and (4, 3)

2 = -2(1)+5 which gives 2 = 3

3 = -2(4)+5 which gives 3 = -3 and denotes not contain the set of ordered pairs

Now, the above equation is satisfied by the given options B and C as on putting the value of x and y one by one then we find out that those are satisfying the given expression.

Easy 10 points and brainliest :)
Llana [10]

Answer:

on the x-axis

Step-by-step explanation:

If x is less than 0, that means it's to the left of the origin, and if y = 0, then that means the point lies on the x-axis.  Hence, (x,y) is on the x-axis.

Cheers.
