6 0

Answer:

1/96

Step-by-step explanation:

The applicable rule of exponents is ...

a^-b = 1/a^b

Then ...

$6^{-1}\cdot 4^{-2}=\dfrac{1}{6}\cdot\dfrac{1}{4^{2}}=\dfrac{1}{6\cdot 16}=\dfrac{1}{96}$

Polygon ABCDE has the vertices A(2, 8), B(4, 12), C(10, 12), D(8, 8), and E(6, 6). Polygon MNOPQ has the vertices M(-2, 8), N(-4

Leto [7]

A transformation that can be performed on polygon ABCDE is a reflection over the y-axis.
The image of a polygon by a reflection its mirror image. The reflected image has the same size as the original.
It means that polygon ABCDE is congruent to polygon MNPQ.

The population of a small town is decreasing exponentially at a rate of 14.3% each year. The current population is 9,400 people.

KonstantinChe [14]

Using an exponential function, the inequality is given as follows:

$9400(0.857)^t < 6000$

The solution is t > 2.9, hence the tax status will change within the next 3 years.

<h3>What is an exponential function?</h3>

A decaying exponential function is modeled by:

$A(t) = A(0)(1 - r)^t$

In which:

A(0) is the initial value.

r is the decay rate, as a decimal.

For this problem, the parameters are given as follows:

A(0) = 9400, r = 0.143.

The population after t years is modeled by:

$A(t) = A(0)(1 - r)^t$

$A(t) = 9400(1 - 0.143)^t$

$A(t) = 9400(0.857)^t$

The tax status will change when:

$A(t) < 6000$

Hence the inequality is:

$9400(0.857)^t < 6000$

Then:

$(0.857)^t < \frac{6000}{9400}$

$\log{(0.857)^t} < \log{\left(\frac{6000}{9400}\right)}$

$t\log{0.857} < \log{\left(\frac{6000}{9400}\right)}$

Since both logs are negative:

$t > \frac{\log{\left(\frac{6000}{9400}\right)}}{\log{0.857}}$

t > 2.9.

The solution is t > 2.9, hence the tax status will change within the next 3 years.

What is a constant?

lakkis [162]

Answer:

In Algebra, a constant is a number on its own, or sometimes a letter such as a, b or c to stand for a fixed number. Example: in "x + 5 = 9", 5 and 9 are constants.

Step-by-step explanation:

In mathematics, a constant term is a term in an algebraic expression that has a value that is constant or cannot change, because it does not contain any modifiable variables. For example, in the quadratic polynomial. the 3 is a constant term.
