Find the value of the following expression: (2^8 ⋅ 5^−5 ⋅ 19^0)^−2 ⋅ 5 to the power of negative 2 over 2 to the power of 3, whol

koban [17]

Answer:

$\large\boxed{\dfrac{5^2\cdot57}{2^{26}}=\dfrac{1425}{67108864}}$

Step-by-step explanation:

$\left(2^8\cdot5^{-5}\cdot19^0\right)^{-2}\cdot\left(\dfrac{5^{-2}}{2^3}\right)^4\cdot228\\\\\text{use}\ a^{-n}=\dfrac{1}{a^n}\ \text{and}\ a^0=1\ \text{and}\ (a^n)^m=a^{nm}\\\\=\left(2^8\cdot\dfrac{1}{5^5}\cdot1\right)^{-2}\cdot\left(\dfrac{\frac{1}{5^2}}{2^3}\right)^4\cdot228=\left(\dfrac{2^8}{5^5}\right)^{-2}\cdot\left(\dfrac{1}{2^35^2}\right)^4\cdot228$

$=\dfrac{(2^8)^{-2}}{(5^5)^{-2}}\cdot\dfrac{1^4}{(2^3)^4(5^2)^4}\cdot228=\dfrac{2^{-16}}{5^{-10}}\cdot\dfrac{1}{2^{12}5^8}\cdot228\\\\\text{use}\ a^n=\dfrac{1}{a^{-n}}\to\dfrac{1}{a^n}=a^{-n}\\\\=2^{-16}\cdot5^{10}\cdot2^{-12}\cdot5^{-8}\cdot228\\\\\text{use}\ a^n\cdot a^m=a^{n+m}\\\\=2^{-16+(-12)}\cdot5^{10+(-8)}\cdot228=2^{-28}\cdot5^2\cdot228\\\\=2^{-28}\cdot5^2\cdot4\cdot57=2^{-28}\cdot5^2\cdot2^2\cdot57=2^{-28+2}\cdot5^2\cdot57\\\\=2^{-26}\cdot5^2\cdot57=\dfrac{5^2\cdot57}{2^{26}}$

$\large\boxed{\dfrac{5^2\cdot57}{2^{26}}=\dfrac{1425}{67108864}}$

What is the average rate of change from x=-5 to x=-4?

valentina_108 [34]

You would need more details like the y values or something. Rate of change is slope though if that helps you enough to figure it out

A van and a truck both drove from Town A to Town B. The distance

Gala2k [10]

First we need to find out the time it took for the truck to reach town B.

$Speed= \frac{Distance}{Time}$

$40= \frac{200}{T}$
$T=5hours$

Now, because the van left 1.5 hours earlier and reached the destination 2.5 hours before, it took 1 hour less the the truck to arrive.

$5hours-1hour=4hours$ which is the time it took for the van to arrive.

Now we use the speed equation again to work out speed.

$Speed= \frac{200}{4}$

$Speed=50mph$ = speed of van

Hope this helped :)
