How many ways can you write 5^8 as a quotient of two exponential terms? Explain your reasoning.

1 answer:

6 0

Exponents can be expressed in terms of quotient or fraction.
For example: x^6 can be expressed as x^8 / x^2 = x^8-2 = x^6.

From the question, 5^8 can be expressed as
5^10/5^2 = 5^8
(5^2)(5^8) / (5^2) = 5^8

Answer:

t = 9.57

Step-by-step explanation:

We can use trig functions to solve for the t

Recall the 3 main trig ratios

Sin = opposite / hypotenuse

Cos = adjacent / hypotenuse

Tan = opposite / adjacent.

( note hypotenuse = longest side , opposite = side opposite of angle and adjacent = other side )

We are given an angle as well as its opposite side length ( which has a measure of 18 ) and we need to find its adjacent "t"

When dealing with the opposite and adjacent we use trig ratio tan.

Tan = opp / adj

angle measure = 62 , opposite side length = 18 and adjacent = t

Tan(62) = 18/t

we now solve for t

Tan(62) = 18/t

multiply both sides by t

Tan(62)t = 18

divide both sides by tan(62)

t = 18/tan(62)

t = 9.57

And we are done!

Answer:

$6 \frac{1}{14}$

Step-by-step explanation:

Write down the problem;

$2 \frac{4}{7} + 3 \frac{2}{4}$

Simplify

$2 \frac{4}{7} + 3 \frac{1}{2}$

Convert so that the fractions have a common denominator; multiply the numerator and denominator of both fractions such that the denominators are equal;

$2 \frac{8}{14} + 3 \frac{7}{14}$
