Use Pythagorean theorem (a squared is equal to c squared minus b squared)

Where a is the unknown leg, c is the hypotenuse and b is the known leg

a^2 = 13^2-5^2 which is 144

Then square root one hundred and fourty four to get rid of the power on a

Square root of one hundred and fourty four is twelve

How do you solve: f(x) = -x2e-x<br> +2xe-x , finding the zero's of f.

Maksim231197 [3]

Answer:

0 and 2

Step-by-step explanation:

$f(x) = -x^2e^{-x}+2xe^{-x}$

To find zeros set f(x)=0 and solve for x

$0 = -x^2e^{-x}+2xe^{-x}$

$0 = -e^{-x}(x^2-2x)$

now factor out x

$0 = -xe^{-x}(x-2)$

set each factor =0 and solve for x

$x=0$

$-e^{-x}=0$ no solution for x

$x-2=0, x=2$

zeros of f are 0 and 2

Rewrite the expression with a rational exponent as a radical expression.

Vilka [71]

Answer:

$\sqrt{5}$

Step-by-step explanation:

we know that

The "power rule" tells us that to raise a power to a power, just multiply the exponents

so

$(a^{m})^{n}=a^{m*n}$

we have

$(5^{\frac{3}{4}})^{\frac{2}{3}}$

Applying the "power rule"

$(5^{\frac{3}{4}})^{\frac{2}{3}}=5^{\frac{3}{4}*\frac{2}{3}}=5^{\frac{1}{2}}=\sqrt{5}$

2 13/18 −z=1 19/36 <br><br>Answer

allsm [11]

Answer:

Answer is z= 43/36

Step-by-step explanation:

We have given,

2 13/18 - z = 1 19/36

Since 2 13/18 = 49/18 and 1 19/36 = 55/36

So we can write,

2 13/18 - z = 1 19/36

or 49/18 - z = 55/36

or 49/18 - 55/36 = z

or (98 -55)/36 = z

or 43/36 = z

Hence we got z = 43/36
