Answer:

\frac{6}{y^4}

Step-by-step explanation:

To evaluate or simplify expressions with exponents, we use exponent rules.  

1. An exponent is only a short cut for multiplication. It simplifies how we write the expression.

2. When we multiply terms with the same bases, we add exponents.

3. When we divide terms with the same bases, we subtract exponents.

4. When we have a base to the exponent of 0, it is 1.

5. A negative exponent creates a fraction.

6. When we raise an exponent to an exponent, we multiply exponents.

7. When we have exponents with parenthesis, we apply it to everything in the parenthesis.

We will use these rules to simplify.

6y^{-4} = \frac{6}{y^4}

Answer:

The value of T₂₀ - T₁₅ is <u>-20</u>.

Step-by-step explanation:

<u>Given</u> :

  • >> If for an A.P, d = -4

<u>To</u><u> </u><u>Find</u> :

  • >> T₂₀ - T₁₅

<u>Using Formula</u> :

General term of an A.P.

\star{\small{\underline{\boxed{\sf{\red{ T_n = a  + (n - 1)d}}}}}}

  • >> Tₙ = nᵗʰ term
  • >> a = first term
  • >> n = no. of terms
  • >> d = common difference

<u>Solution</u> :

Firstly finding the A.P of T₂₀ by substituting the values in the formula :

{\dashrightarrow{\pmb{\sf{ T_n = a  + (n - 1)d}}}}

{\dashrightarrow{\sf{ T_{20} = a  + (20 - 1) d}}}

{\dashrightarrow{\sf{ T_{20} = a  + (19)d}}}

{\dashrightarrow{\sf{ T_{20} = a  + 19  \times d}}}

{\dashrightarrow{\sf{ T_{20} = a  + 19d}}}

{\star \: {\underline{\boxed{\sf{\pink{ T_{20} = a  + 19d}}}}}}

Hence, the value of T₂₀ is a + 19d.

\rule{190}1

Secondly, finding the A.P of T₁₅ by substituting the values in the formula :

{\dashrightarrow{\pmb{\sf{ T_n = a  + (n - 1)d}}}}

{\dashrightarrow{\sf{ T_{15}= a  + (15 - 1) d}}}

{\dashrightarrow{\sf{ T_{15}= a  + (14) d}}}

{\dashrightarrow{\sf{ T_{15}= a  + 14 \times d}}}

{\dashrightarrow{\sf{ T_{15}= a  + 14d}}}

{\star{\underline{\boxed{\sf \pink{ T_{15}= a  + 14d}}}}}

Hence, the value of T₁₅ is a + 14d

\rule{190}1

Now, finding the difference between T₂₀ - T₁₅ :

{\dashrightarrow{\pmb{\sf{T_{20} -  T_{15}}}}}

{\dashrightarrow{\sf{(a + 19d) -  (a + 14d)}}}

{\dashrightarrow{\sf{a + 19d -  a  -  14d}}}

{\dashrightarrow{\sf{a - a + 19d -  14d}}}

{\dashrightarrow{\sf{0+ 19d -  14d}}}

{\dashrightarrow{\sf{19d -  14d}}}

{\dashrightarrow{\sf{5 \times  - 4}}}

{\dashrightarrow{\sf{ - 20}}}

{\star \: \underline{\boxed{\sf{\pink{T_{20} -  T_{15} =  - 20}}}}}

Hence, the value of T₂₀ - T₁₅ is -20.

\underline{\rule{220pt}{3.5pt}}

Simplify the expression and show work.
nasty-shy [4]

Answer:

72/149

Step-by-step explanation:

Just to clarify, the curly braces mean the same thing as normal parenthesis.

(12 + 5^2) = (12 + 25) = 37

(-7-15)^2 = (-22)^2 = 484

6^3  = 216

(12 + 5^2) - (-7-15)^2 = 37 - 484 = 447

6^3 / ((12 + 5^2) - (-7 - 15)^2) = 216 / 447 = 72/149

1/4(x+3)+3/8x=13/4 SOLVE FOR X
larisa86 [58]
1. First I turned the fractions into decimals, just to make things easier for me.2. That gave me => (.25x)+(.75)+(.375)=(3.25)
3. Then, I combined like terms and move my equation around; so, that gave me (.25x) = (3.25) - (.75) - (.375) and when I solve the right side of the equation it gives me
(.25x) = (2.125)
4. After combining like terms and simplifying (the way I did in step 3), I will divide both sides by .25, to get the value of X alone; so, my equation then looks like => x=8.5
