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

Mathematics
1 answer:
NARA [144]3 years ago

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 ;)

Suppose that a box contains 7 cameras and that 5 of them are defective. A sample of 2 cameras is selected at random without repl
irinina [24]

Answer:

E(x) = 1.43 (Approx)

Step-by-step explanation:

Given:

Total number of camera = 7

Defective camera = 5

Sample selected = 2

Computation:

when x = 0

P(x=0) = 2/7 × 1/6 = 2/42

P(x=1) = [2/7 × 5/6] + [5/7 × 2/6] = 20/42

P(x=2) = 5/7 × 4/6 = 20/42

So,

E(x) = [0×2/42] + [1×20/42] + [2×20/42]

E(x) = 1.43 (Approx)

A book store sells a textbook for $150. If the textbook is on sale with 12% off, and there is a sales tax of 8.25% added to the
Yuri [45]

The textbook is $150 originally, so to find the price of the textbook on sale, multiply the original price by 12% (0.12). Then subtract 12% of 150 from 150.

  • 150 * 0.12 = 18

Subtract 18 from 150.

  • 150 - 18 = 132

Multiply the price of the textbook on sale by the sales tax of 8.25% (0.0825). Then add the tax price onto the sale price of the textbook.

  • 132 * 0.0825 = 10.89

Add 10.89 to 132.

  • 132 + 10.89 = 142.89

The final price of the textbook is $142.89.

A pet survey found that the ratio of dogs to cats is 2/5. Write and solve a proportion that shows the number of dogs
Irina18 [472]
So,

The ratio of dogs to cats:
\frac{2}{5}

The other proportion:
\frac{x}{140}

\frac{2}{5} =  \frac{x}{140}

5 times 28 is 140.

Multiply the fraction by the appropriate form of 1
\frac{2}{5} * \frac{28}{28} =  \frac{56}{140}

There are 56 dogs when the number of cats is 140.

Prove that 7 + 3 root 2 is not a rational number​
Tanya [424]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

let 7 + 3√2 be an rational number where

7+3√2 = a/b [ a and b are coprime and b is not equal to zero]

3√2= a/b-7

3√2 =( a-7b) /b

√2 = (a-7b) /3b .....(i)

Now ,from equation (i) ,we get that √2 is rational but we know that √2 is irrational. so actually 7 + 3√2 is irrational not rational. thus our assumption is wrong. The number is irrational.
