Answer:

A. \frac{3}{x^2}

B. \frac{10x^6}{y^2}

Step-by-step explanation:

A.

Our expression is: 3x^{-2}, where we have a negative exponent.

Remember that negative exponents are the same as taking the reciprocal of the number and taking that to the positive exponent.

Here, we have x^{-2}, so its reciprocal is just 1/x. Now, we take the positive square of the reciprocal: \frac{1}{x^2}. Put the 3 in and our final answer is: \frac{3}{x^2}.

B.

Our expression is: 5x^2y(2x^4y^{-3}). Basically, we're multiplying these together.

Remember that when multiplying numbers with the same base, we always add the exponents. Here, we have:

5x^2y(2x^4y^{-3})=5*2*x^2y*x^4y^{-3}=10x^2y*x^4y^{-3}

The two x terms will combine to become x^{2+4}=x^6, and the two y terms will combine to become y^{1+(-3)}=y^{-2}=\frac{1}{y^2}.

The final answer is: \frac{10x^6}{y^2}.

<h3>I’ll teach you solve 3x^-2 and 5x^2y(2x^4y^-3)</h3>

——————————————

(A)

3x^-2

Apply exponent rule:

3*1/x^2

Multiply fractions:

1*3/x^2

Multiply the numbers:

1*3= 3

3/x^2

Your Answer Is \frac{3}{x^{2} }

(B)

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

Apply exponent rule:

5y*2x^2+4 y^-3

Add the numbers:

2+4= 6

5y*2x^6 y^-3

Apply exponent rule:

5*2x^6 y^1-3

Subtract the numbers:

1-3= -2

5*2x^6 y^-2

Apply exponent rule:

5*2* 1/y^2 x^6

Multiply fractions:

1*5*2x^6/y^2

Multiply the numbers:

1*5*2= 10

10x^6/y^2

Your Answer Is \frac{10x^{6} }{y^{2} }

Step-by-step explanation:

The last one.  If you reflect it over the x-axis, it moves from quadrant IV to quadrant I.  Everything in quadrant I is positive, and the last one is the only one that has all x and y values positive.

The figure shows a carpeted room. How many square feet of the room are carpeted?
OverLord2011 [107]

Split the figure into two shapes.

Top rectangle would be 6 feet x 5 feet ( 8-3)

The bottom rectangle would be 2 feet x 3 feet.

Calculate the area of both and add them together:

6 x 5 = 30

2 x 3 = 6

Total area = 30 + 6 = 36 square feet.

If f(x) = -3x+1 then f^-1(x) =
elena55 [62]

Answer:

please mark me brainliesf if it helps you

f(x) = -3x+1

or, y = -3x + 1

Interchanging the position of x and y, we get,

x = -3y +1

or, 3y = 1 - x

or, y = 1 - x /3

: . f^-1(x) = 1-x / 3
