Why do we need to multiply the exponent out side the parentheses?

Mathematics
1 answer:
NARA [144]3 years ago
5 0

Answer:

We need to multiply the exponents that are outsides of the parentheses because the Power of a Power Property of Exponet states that (b^m)^n, you would multiply m and n together than keep b as your base.

Hope this helps ;)

Approximate the value of each of the irrational numbers below to the nearest thousandth.
Marta_Voda [28]

ANSWER

\sqrt{13}  = 3.606

to the nearest thousandth.

EXPLANATION

The given irrational number is

\sqrt{13}

We use the calculator to evaluate this to obtain,

\sqrt{13}  = 3.605551...

To round to the nearest thousandth means we are rounding to 3 decimal places.

The third decimal place is 5.

The next number is 5 so we round up.

\sqrt{13}  = 3.606

Answer:

π/6 [37^(³/₂) − 1] ≈ 117.3187

Step-by-step explanation:

The surface area is:

S = ∫ 2π (x − 0) √(1 + (dx/dy)²) dy

0 ≤ x ≤ 3, so -4 ≤ y ≤ 5.

Find dx/dy.

y = 5 − x²

x² = 5 − y

x = √(5 − y)

dx/dy = ½ (5 − y)^(-½) (-1)

dx/dy = -½ (5 − y)^(-½)

(dx/dy)² = ¼ (5 − y)^(-1)

(dx/dy)² = 1 / (4 (5 − y))

Plug in:

S = ∫₋₄⁵ 2π x √(1 + 1 / (20 − 4y)) dy

S = ∫₋₄⁵ 2π √(5 − y) √(1 + 1 / (4 (5 − y))) dy

S = ∫₋₄⁵ 2π √((5 − y) + 1/4)) dy

S = ∫₋₄⁵ 2π √(5.25 − y) dy

If u = 5.25 − y, then du = -dy.

S = ∫ 2π √u (-du)

S = -2π ∫ √u du

S = -2π (⅔ u^(³/₂))

S = -4π/3 u^(³/₂)

Substitute back:

S = -4π/3 (5.25 − y)^(³/₂)

Evaluate between y=-4 and y=5.

S = [-4π/3 (5.25 − 5)^(³/₂)] − [-4π/3 (5.25 − -4)^(³/₂)]

S = -4π/3 (0.25)^(³/₂) + 4π/3 (9.25)^(³/₂)

S = π/6 [37^(³/₂) − 1]

S ≈ 117.3187

Given the function f(x)=3x+5a / x^2-a^2 find the value of a for which f'(12) = 0
maria [59]
The function, as presented here, is ambiguous in terms of what's being deivded by what.  For the sake of example, I will assume that you meant

           3x+5a
<span> f(x)= ------------
</span>          x^2-a^2

You are saying that the derivative of this function is 0 when x=12.  Let's differentiate f(x) with respect to x and then let x = 12:

             (x^2-a^2)(3) -(3x+5a)(2x)
f '(x) = ------------------------------------- = 0 when x = 12
                [x^2-a^2]^2

(144-a^2)(3) - (36+5a)(24)
------------------------------------  =  0
               [   ]^2

Simplifying,

(144-a^2) - 8(36+5a) = 0

144 - a^2 - 288 - 40a = 0

This can be rewritten as a quadratic in standard form:

-a^2 - 40a - 144 = 0, or a^2 + 40a + 144 = 0.

Solve for a by completing the square:

a^2 + 40a + 20^2 - 20^2 + 144 = 0
        (a+20)^2    = 400 - 144 = 156

        Then a+20 = sqrt[6(26)] = sqrt[6(2)(13)] = 4(3)(13)= 2sqrt(39)

         Finally, a = -20 plus or minus 2sqrt(39)

You must check both answers by subst. into the original equation.  Only if the result(s) is(are) true is your solution (value of a) correct.
