Answer:

-i

Step-by-step explanation:

i = √-1, i² = -1, i^4 = 1

i^15 = i^4 • i^4 • i^4 • i² • i

= 1 • 1 • 1 • -1 • i

= -i

Answer:

-i

Step-by-step explanation:

i means Imaginary unit.

i to the zero power is 1

i to the first power is itself

i to the second power is -1

i to the third power is -i

Then, i to the fourth power is 1, so it all repeats again.

Compare the scores: a score of 75 on a test with a mean of 65 and a standard deviation of 8 and a score of 75 on a test with a m

LiRa [457]

Answer:

The Zscore for both test is the same

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that :

TEST 1:

score (x) = 75

Mean (m) = 65

Standard deviation (s) = 8

TEST 2:

score (x) = 75

Mean (m) = 70

Standard deviation (s) = 4

USING the relation to obtain the standardized score :

Zscore = (x - m) / s

TEST 1:

Zscore = (75 - 65) / 8

Zscore = 10/8

Zscore = 1.25

TEST 2:

Zscore = (75 - 70) / 4

Zscore = 5/4

Zscore = 1.25

The standardized score for both test is the same.

Which of these statements is true for f(x)=(1/10)^x

lana66690 [7]

Step-by-step explanation:

Considering the function

$f\left(x\right)=\:\left(\frac{1}{10}\right)^x$

Analyzing option A)

Considering the function

$f\left(x\right)=\:\left(\frac{1}{10}\right)^x$

Putting $x = 1$ in the function

$f\left(1\right)=\:\left(\frac{1}{10}\right)^1$

$f\left(1\right)=\:\left\frac{1}{10}\right$

So, it is TRUE that when $x = 1$ then the out put will be $f\left(1\right)=\:\left\frac{1}{10}\right$

Therefore, the statement that '' The graph contains $\left(1,\:\frac{1}{10}\right)$ '' is TRUE.

Analyzing option B)

Considering the function

$f\left(x\right)=\:\left(\frac{1}{10}\right)^x$

The range of the function is the set of values of the dependent variable for which a function is defined.

$\mathrm{The\:range\:of\:an\:exponential\:function\:of\:the\:form}\:c\cdot \:n^{ax+b}+k\:\mathrm{is}\:\:f\left(x\right)>k$

$k=0$

$f\left(x\right)>0$

Thus,

$\mathrm{Range\:of\:}\left(\frac{1}{10}\right)^x:\quad \begin{bmatrix}\mathrm{Solution:}\:&\:f\left(x\right)>0\:\\ \:\mathrm{Interval\:Notation:}&\:\left(0,\:\infty \:\right)\end{bmatrix}$

Therefore, the statement that ''The range of $f(x)$ is $y > \frac{1}{10}$ " is FALSE

Analyzing option C)

Considering the function

$f\left(x\right)=\:\left(\frac{1}{10}\right)^x$

The domain of the function is the set of input values which the function is real and defined.

As the function has no undefined points nor domain constraints.

So, the domain is $-\infty \:$

Thus,

$\mathrm{Domain\:of\:}\:\left(\frac{1}{10}\right)^x\::\quad \begin{bmatrix}\mathrm{Solution:}\:&\:-\infty \:$

Therefore, the statement that ''The domain of $f(x)$ is $x>0$ '' is FALSE.

Analyzing option D)

Considering the function

$f\left(x\right)=\:\left(\frac{1}{10}\right)^x$

As the base of the exponential function is less then 1.

i.e. 0 < b < 1

Thus, the function is decreasing

Also check the graph of the function below, which shows that the function is decreasing.

Therefore, the statement '' It is always increasing '' is FALSE.

I don't know how to simplify

In-s [12.5K]

(5-2/x)/4-3/x^2

after simplifying these
(5x-2)/x(4x^2-3)/x^2
x(5x-2)/(4x^2-3)
5x^2-2x/4x^2-3

now u can solve it

The question above was not written properly

Complete Question

Lacey and Haley are rewriting expressions in an equivalent, simpler form.

a. Haley simplified x³⋅ x² and got

x⁵

Lacey simplified x³ + x² and got the same result! However, their teacher told them that only one simplification is correct. Who simplified correctly and how do you know?

b. Haley simplifies 3⁵⋅ 4⁵ and gets the result 12^10, but Lacey is not sure.

Is Haley correct? Be sure to justify your answer.

Answer:

a) Haley is correct, Lacey simplified wrongly.

b) Haley is incorrect

Step-by-step explanation:

a. Haley simplified x³⋅ x² and got

x⁵

Lacey simplified x³ + x² and got the same result! However, their teacher told them that only one simplification is correct. Who simplified correctly and how do you know?

For Question a, when it comes to simplifying algebraic expression that has to do with powers, there are certain rules that should be followed.

For example

x^a × x^b = x^(a + b)

For Haley, she simplified x³⋅ x² and got

x⁵

She is correct because this follows the product rule of powers or exponents above

= x³⋅ x² = x³+² = x⁵

For Lacey she is wrong because:

x³ + x² ≠ x⁵

x³ + x² when simplified as quadratic equation = x²(x + 1)

b. Haley simplifies 3⁵⋅ 4⁵ and gets the result 12^10, but Lacey is not sure.

Is Haley correct? Be sure to justify your answer.

For question b, when we have two distinct or different numbers with the same power(exponents) the rule states that:

x^a × y^a = (x × y)^a = (xy)^a

Haley is simplified wrongly. She did not apply the rule above

Haley simplified 3⁵⋅ 4⁵ = (3 × 4) ⁵+⁵

= 12^10, this is wrong.

The correct answer according to the rule =

3⁵⋅ 4⁵ = (3 × 4) ⁵ = 12⁵

Therefore,

3⁵⋅ 4⁵ ≠ 12^10

3⁵⋅ 4⁵ = 12⁵

Haley is wrong.
