If 10 miles is about 16 km and the distance between two towns is 45 miles use a ratio table to find the distance between the tow

ns in kilometers

The ratio of m to km is
10/16
5:8
So for every 5 miles there are 8 km

45/5 = 9
9 * 8 = 72

Let's Check the answer:

45/72
5:8

So, its correct. The answer is 72 km.

Joey had 26 game cards. His friend Richard gave him some more, and now Joey has 100 cards. How many cards did Richard give to Jo

Roman55 [17]

Given:

Joey had 26 game cards.

His friend Richard gave him some more, and now Joey has 100 cards.

To find:

How many cards did Richard give to Joey?

Solution:

Let x be the number of cards that Richard give to Joey.

Joey had 26 game cards.

Now, the total cards joey has $=26+x$

Joey has total 100 cards.

$26+x=100$

$x=100-26$

$x=74$

Therefore, Richard gave him 74 cards.

Find the logarithmic function y = logbx that passes through the points

katovenus [111]

$b\in(0,\ 1)\ \cup\ (1,\ \infty)\\x > 0\\y\in\mathbb{R}\\--------------------------\\\\y=\log_bx\\\\For\ (1,\ 0)\to x=1,\ y=0.\ Substitute:\\\\\log_b1=0\to b^0=1\to b\in(0,\ 1)\ \cup\ (1,\ \infty)\\\\For\ (116,\ 2)\to x=116,\ y=2.\ Substitute:\\\\\log_b116=2\to b^2=116\to b=\sqrt{116}\\\to b=\sqrt{4\cdot29}\to b=\sqrt4\cdot\sqrt{29}\to b=2\sqrt{29}\\\\For\ (4,\ -1)\to x=4,\ y=-1.\ Substitute:\\\\\log_b4=-1\to b^{-1}=4\to b=\dfrac{1}{4}$

Different values of b.

<h3>Answer: There is no logarithmic function whose graph goes through given points.</h3><h3 />

Maybe the second point is $\left(\dfrac{1}{16},\ 2\right)$

Substitute:

$\log_b\dfrac{1}{16}=2\to b^2=\dfrac{1}{16}\to b=\sqrt{\dfrac{1}{16}}\to b=\dfrac{1}{4}$

<h3>Then we have the answer:</h3>

$\boxed{y=\log_{\frac{1}{4}}x}$

Match the numerical expressions to their simplest forms.

Aloiza [94]

Answer:

$(a^6b^1^2)^\frac{1}{3}$ = $a^2b^4$

$\frac{(a^5b^3)^\frac{1}{2}}{(ab)^-^\frac{1}{2}}$ = $a^3b^2$

$(\frac{a^5}{a^-^3b^-^4})^\frac{1}{4}$ = $a^2b$

$(\frac{a^3}{ab^-^6})^\frac{1}{2}$ = $ab^3$

Step-by-step explanation:

Simplify each of the expressions:

1

$(a^6b^1^2)^\frac{1}{3}$

Distribute the exponent. Multiply the exponent of the term outside of the parenthesis by the exponents of the variable.

$(a^6b^1^2)^\frac{1}{3}$

$a^6^*^\frac{1}{3}b^1^2^*^\frac{1}{3}$

Simplify,

$a^2b^4$

2

Use a similar technique to solve this problem. Remember, a fractional exponent is the same as a radical, if the denominator is (2), then the operation is taking the square root of the number.

$\frac{(a^5b^3)^\frac{1}{2}}{(ab)^-^\frac{1}{2}}$

Rewrite as square roots:

$\frac{\sqrt{a^5b^3}}{\sqrt{(ab)}^-^1}$

A negative exponent indicates one needs to take the reciprocal of the number. Apply this here:

$\frac{\sqrt{a^5b^3}}{\frac{1}{\sqrt{ab}}}$

Simplify,

$\sqrt{a^5b^3}*\sqrt{ab}$

Since both numbers are under a radical, one can rewrite them such that they are under the same radical,

$\sqrt{a^5b^3*ab}$

Simplify,

$\sqrt{a^6b^4}$

Since this operation is taking the square root, divide the exponents in half to do this operation:

$a^3b^2$

$(\frac{a^5}{a^-^3b^-^4})^\frac{1}{4}$

Simplify, to simplify the expression in the numerator and the denominator, the base must be the same. Remember, the base is the number that is being raised to the exponent. One subtracts the exponent of the number in the denominator from the exponent of the like base in the numerator. This only works if all terms in both the numerator and the denominator have the operation of multiplication between them:

$(\frac{a^8}{b^-^4})^\frac{1}{4}$

Bring the negative exponent to the numerator. Change the sign of the exponent and rewrite it in the numerator,

$(a^8b^4)^\frac{1}{4}$

This expression to the power of the one forth. This is the same as taking the quartic root of the expression. Rewrite the expression with such,

$\sqrt[4]{a^8b^4}$

SImplify, divide the exponents by (4) to simulate taking the quartic root,

$a^2b$

4

$(\frac{a^3}{ab^-^6})^\frac{1}{2}$

Using all of the rules mentioned above, simplify the fraction. The only operation happening between the numbers in both the numerator and the denominator is multiplication. Therefore, one can subtract the exponents of the terms with the like base. The term in the denomaintor can be rewritten in the numerator with its exponent times negative (1).

$(a^3^-^1b^(^-^6^*^(^-^1^)^))^\frac{1}{2}$

$(a^2b^6)^\frac{1}{2}$

Rewrite to the half-power as a square root,

$\sqrt{a^2b^6}$

Simplify, divide all of the exponents by (2),

$ab^3$
