Why is a number raised to the zero power ALWAYS one and never any other number?

Mathematics

alexdok [17]3 years ago

Do you know how to simplify, let's say for example,    x⁵/x²  ?

When the bases are the same, you can just subtract the exponent in
the denominator from the exponent in the numerator.  So  x⁵/x² = x³ .

Now look at  x⁷/x⁷ .  From that same handy tip, x⁷/x⁷ = x⁰ .

BUT ... any fraction with the same number on top and bottom
is equal to ' 1 '.  So  x⁰ = 1 , no matter what 'x' happens to be.

Does that do anything for you ?

What is the equation of a line that passes through (4,  3) and has a slope of 2? y=2x−11 y=2x−7 y=2x−1 y=2x−5
LenaWriter [7]

Step-by-step explanation:

The coefficient of the x term repesents the slope of the graph.

So we have y = 2x +- ( ).

We have to find our number term, so let's substitute x = 4 and y = 3.

(3) = 2(4) +- ( )

3 = 8 +- ( )

To make this right, the number term must be -5.

3 = 8 - 5

So the equation is y = 2x - 5.
