measure the lines with small paper clips and then with a centimeter ruler. Line 1, has 3 paper clips = 12 cm with ruler. Line 2,

has 2 paper clips = to 6 cm with a ruler. Line 3 has 2 paper clips = 9 cm ruler. explain why each measurements require more centimeters than paper clips

Answer:

Its because the paper clips used here are of same length (4cm long).

So the measurements of lines two and three need to be multiples of 4 to me measured accurately with the paper.

i.e Line two needs to be 6cm + 2cm = 8cm (eight is a muliple of 4)

Line three needs to be 9cm + 3cm = 12cm (twelve is a multiple of 4)

Step-by-step explanation:

Since line 1 has 3 paper clips and its 12cm in length, the size of the paper clips is 4cm.

Line 2 is 6cm long and will require two more centimeters to measured accurately by the 4cm-paper clips.

Line 3 is 9cm and will require three more centimeters to be measured accurately by the 4cm-paper clips.

Multiplying Powers with the Same Base
Luda [366]

Applying the product rule of exponents, each product of powers are matched with its simplified expression as:

1. 5 \times 5^3 = 5^4

2. 5 \times 5^3 = 5^4

3. 5^{-3} \times 5^{-3} = \frac{1}{5^6}

4. 5^{-4} \times 5^{4} \times 5^0 = 5^0

5. 5^{7} \times 5^{3} = 5^{10}

To multiply the powers having the same base, we will apply the product rule for exponents.

<h3>What is the Product Rule for Exponents?</h3>
  • Base on the product rule for exponents, we have, a^m \times a^n = a^{m + n} = a^{mn}.
  • In order to find the products of two given numbers that have the same base, the exponents would be added together.

1. 5^6 \times 5^{-4

Add the exponents together

5^6 \times 5^{-4} = 5^{(6) + (-4)}

5^6 \times 5^{-4} = 5^2

2. 5 \times 5^3

Add the exponents together

5 \times 5^3 = 5^{(1 + 3)}

5 \times 5^3 = 5^4

3. 5^{-3} \times 5^{-3}

Add the exponents together

5^{-3} \times 5^{-3} = 5^{(-3) + (-3)

5^{-3} \times 5^{-3} = 5^{-6

5^{-3} \times 5^{-3} = \frac{1}{5^6}

4. 5^{-4} \times 5^{4} \times 5^0

Add the exponents together

5^{-4} \times 5^{4} \times 5^0 = 5^{(-4) + (4) + (0)

5^{-4} \times 5^{4} \times 5^0 = 5^0

5. 5^{7} \times 5^{3}

Add the exponents together

5^{7} \times 5^{3} = 5^{10}

In summary, applying the product rule of exponents, each product of powers are matched with its simplified expression as:

1. 5 \times 5^3 = 5^4

2. 5 \times 5^3 = 5^4

3. 5^{-3} \times 5^{-3} = \frac{1}{5^6}

4. 5^{-4} \times 5^{4} \times 5^0 = 5^0

5. 5^{7} \times 5^{3} = 5^{10}
