Answer:
A. 2^11
Step-by-step explanation:
(They are basically asking what's 2^4 × 2^7, but with more words.)
I usually do each exponent individually:
2^4 is the same as 2 × 2 × 2 × 2 = 16 (or you could have read the text to figure that out)
2^7 is the same as 2 × 2 × 2 × 2 × 2 × 2 × 2 = 128
Then just multiply 128 and 16 to get 2,048, and see which option also gives you 2,048.
BUT, you can also:
(Combine the exponents together to get your answer. Just remember that if it's multiplication you add them, and if it's division you subtract them.)
2^4 × 2^7
4 + 7 = 11
2^11 (This equals 2,048 btw. You don't even have to check all the options to get the answer).
Hope this helps friend :)
The last part I learned from another user, while answering one of your other questions. I personally find this mind blowing, lol.

Answer:
(a) 1. Distributive property 2. Combine like terms 3. Addition property of equality 4. Division property of equality
Step-by-step explanation:
Replacement of -1/2(8x +2) by -4x -1 is use of the <em>distributive property</em>, eliminating choices B and D.
In step 3, addition of 1 to both sides of the equation is use of the <em>addition property of equality</em>, eliminating choice C. This leaves only choice A.
_____
<em>Additional comment</em>
This problem makes a distinction between the addition property of equality and the subtraction property of equality. They are essentially the same property, since addition of +1 is the same as subtraction of -1. The result shown in Step 3 could be from addition of +1 to both sides of the equation, or it could be from subtraction of -1 from both sides of the equation.
In general, you want to add the opposite of the number you don't want. Here, that number is -1, so we add +1. Of course, adding an opposite is the same as subtracting.
In short, you can argue both choices A and C have correct justifications. The only reason to prefer choice A is that we usually think of adding positive numbers as <em>addition</em>, and adding negative numbers as <em>subtraction</em>.
The line GH bisects The triangle FGI meaning it divides it into two equal parts <em>(that is the definition if bisection); </em>therefore, the angles FGH and HGI are equal:

Now let us add 2 to both sides gives

subtracting 4x from both sides gives


Hence, x = 11.
The measure of FGH is

(B)
The measure of HGI is

(C)
The measure of FGI is the sum of HGI and FGH:

Hello There!
The first one seems alright.
The second one it would be 1/2.
This is because half of the options have “R” on them.
