The answer to this question is x^(rt + s) since (x^r)^t becomes x^(rt) by the exponent power of a power property. Then multiplying powers of the same base results in the exponents being summed.
Answer:
x = - 2
Step-by-step explanation:
- 8 = - 2x - 12
- 8 + 12 = - 2x - 12 + 12
- 2x = 4
- 2x ÷ - 2 = 4 ÷ - 2
x = - 2
5*9=45
1*9=9
Then add both numbers together
45+9=54
Answer: The second term of the expression which is 0.25x is the variable cost which is the extra amount paid for being late.
The expression 2 + 0.25x represents the amount that Ruth paid for the book.
It should be noted that the fixed cost is represented by 2 while the 0.25 represents the variable cost which is the late fee. Also, the x represented the number of days for being late.
In conclusion, the second term of the expression represents the amount that was charged for being late.
You can use the Pythagorean Theorem. Which is a^2 + b^2 = c^2.
So now to plug in the equation.
In your case a is 8 and c is 34. So now we need to solve for b.
8 squared is equal to 64.
34 squared is equal to 1156.
Now to plug things in.
64 + b^2 = 1156
Now subtract 64 from 1156.
That equals 1092.
The equation is now
b^2 = 1092
Now do the square root of 1092.
But since the square root is an irrational number you can just write b = 1092 ( but put a square root with 1092)
