A x = 0
using the law of exponents
= 1
for (6² )^ x = 1 then x = 0
B note that
= 1 ⇒ x = 1
2 → 2^8 × 3^(-5) × 1^(-2) × 3^(-8) × 2^(-12) × 2^(28)
= 2^(8 -12 + 28) × 1 × 3^(- 5 - 8)
= 2^24 × 3^(- 13) = 2^(24)/3^(13) = 10.523 ( 3 dec. places)
Just divide 36 by 48, and you will get that he made 75% of his free throws.
If the problem is supposed to read (4^33*8^37)/(4^15*8^21), then...
(4^33*8^37)/(4^15*8^21) = (4^33/4^15)*(8^37/8^21)
(4^33*8^37)/(4^15*8^21) = 4^(33-15)*8^(37-21)
(4^33*8^37)/(4^15*8^21) = 4^18*8^16
Answer: Choice A) 4^18*8^16
The side length is the square root of 8. Because the square has 4 equal sides, the side lengths must be equal. So the answer is approximately 2.83.
