Answer:
smaller number = 3 5/24
larger number = 6 13/24
Step-by-step explanation:
let the larger number = x
smaller number = y
x - y = 3 1/3 equation 1
2(x +y) = 191/2 equation 2
divide equation 2 through by 2
x + y = 9 3/4 equation 3
subtract equation 1 from 3
2y = 6 5/12
y = 77/12 x 1/2 = 3 5/24
substitute for y in equation 1
x - 3 5/24 = 31/3
x = 3 1/3 + 3 5/24
x = 6 13/24
Principle: Law of Exponents - Combination of product to a power & power to a power. The first is when raising a product of two integers to a power, the power is distributed to each factor. In equation it is,
(xy)^a = (x^a)(y^a)
The latter is when raising the base with a power to a power, the base will remain the same and the powers will be multiplied. In equation it is,
(x^a)(x^b) = x^ab
Check:
f(x) = 5*(16)^.33x = 5*(8*2)^0.33x = 5*(8^0.33x)(2^0.33x) = 5*(2^x)*(2^0.33x) = 5*(2^1.33x)
f(x) = 2.3*(8^0.5x) = 2.3*(4*2)^0.5x = 2.3*(2^x)(2^0.5x) = 2.3*(2^1.5x)
f(x) = 81^0.25x = 3^x
f(x) = 0.75*(9*3)^0.5x = 0.75*(3^x)*(3^0.5x) = 0.75*3^1.5x
f(x) = 24^0.33x = (8*3)^0.33x = (2^x)*(3^0.33x)
Therefore, the answer is third equation.
<em>ANSWER: f(x) = 81^0.25x = 3^x</em>

Answer:
f(x) = 6x +1
Step-by-step explanation:
Differences in x-values (first row) are 1, 1, 1.
Differences in y-values (second row) are 6, 6, 6.
The constant ratio of differences (6/1) tells you the function is linear, and has a slope of m = 6/1 = 6.
Using the first point in the form ...
y = mx + b
we have ...
y = 6x + b
7 = 6·1 + b . . . . (x, y) = (1, 7)
1 = b . . . . . . subtract 6
Then the equation can be written ...
y = 6x +1
In functional form, this is ...
f(x) = 6x +1
