Answer:
2 Superscript 4 x Baseline = 2 Superscript 3 x minus 9
8^(x-3) = 2^(3x-9)
Step-by-step explanation:
2⁴ × 8^(x - 3)
2⁴ × (2³)^(x-3)
2⁴ × 2^(3x - 9)
Since the bases are same now, powers can be added
2^(4 + 3x - 9)
2^(3x - 5)
We first need to pick the correct piece to use. In this case, we will use f(x) = -x-5 because -5<=-4.
Then, we use direct substitution:
f(-4) = -(-4) - 5
f(-4) = -1
It seems okay to me (if that what your asking) I don't know this subject very well ut the part your working on " I'm familiar with ?" Don't be surprised if I was wrong buuuuut it does look okay to me "(the answer)".
Third choice is correct hope I helped:3
