When you multiply powers, they add, and when you divide them they subtract.
So I would first add the 2^a + 2^b +2^c to get 2^(a+b+c)
Then, divide by 2^(a+b). Because when you divide powers they subtract, you will be taking away the (a+b) from the (a+b+c) and you will be left with c on its own.
The answer is 2^c

Discriminant = b^2 - 4ac, where a, b and c come from the form of the quadratic equation as ax^2 + bx + c
Discriminant = (4)^2 - 4(1)(5)
= 16 - 20
= -4
-4 < 0, therefor there are no roots
(If the discriminant = 0, then there is one root
If the discriminant > 0, there are two roots, and if it is a perfect square (eg. 4, 9, 16, etc.) then there are two rational roots
If the discriminant < 0, there are no roots)
Hello :))
82 x 12 = 984
Hope this helps!
On a horizontal number line, -6 is located to the (left) of -4. So, -6 is (less than) 4.
