F(x)=2^x evaluate f(5)

Helen [10]

Hey there!

To solve this, we will first replace x with 5 anytime we see it in the equation.

f(5) = 2^5

Now, we simplify 2^5.

The base is 2 and the exponent is 5 in this case.

The exponent is the number of times you multiply the base by itself. In oour case:

2 x 2 x 2 x 2 x 2 = 32

f(5) = 32

Hope this helps!

$\sqrt{(x_2-x_1)^2+(y_2-y_1)^2}\\\\\sqrt{(-27-27)^2+(36+36)^2}\\\\ \sqrt{54^2+72^2} \\\\ \sqrt{8100} \\\\90\\\\\\90+54 =\boxed { 144}\\\\\sf The~ distance~ 90~ is~ from ~the~ warehouse~ to ~the ~airport\\\\The~ distance~ 54~ is~ from ~the~ airport~ to ~the~ factory\\\\So,~ the~ total~ distance~ is~ 144$
