Answer:

B.A horizontal line never have an x- intercept.the x- intercept is defined as the point at which a line crosses the x- axis.

Step-by-step explanation:

We have to find that a horizontal line can have an x- intercept and what happened when the line passes through the origin.

X-intercept: It is defined as the value of x at which the graph cut the x- axis.

No, a horizontal line can not have x- intercept.Because the x -intercept is defined as the point at which a line crosses the x- axis.

When a horizontal line passes through the origin then it coincide the horizontal line.

An x-intercept means that the line /graph will goes through the x-axis, which means that you will have many x-intercepts in this scenario

So the answer is option A.

Answer: a) 15625, b) 0.2, c) 625, d) 0.008.

Step-by-step explanation:

Since we have given that

a) $(5^2)(5^3)$

As we know that

$a^m\times a^n=a^{m+n}$

So, it becomes,

$5^2\times 5^3=5^{2+3}=5^6=15625$

(b) $(5^2)(5^{-3})$

So, it becomes,

$5^2\times 5^{-3}=5^{2-3}=5^{-1}=\dfrac{1}{5}=0.2$

As we know that

$(a^m)^n=a^{mn}$

So, it becomes,

$5^{2\times 2}=5^4=625$

(d) $5^{-3}$

$a^{-m}=\dfrac{1}{a^m}\\\\5^{-3}=\dfrac{1}{5^3}=\dfrac{1}{125}=0.008$

Hence, a) 15625, b) 0.2, c) 625, d) 0.008.
