Select the simplification that accurately explains the following statement.

Mathematics
1 answer:
Ratling [72]3 years ago
6 0

Answer:

Choice C is correct

Step-by-step explanation:

We use the law of exponents in this problem;

(a^{b})^{2}=a^{b}*a^{b}

Therefore,

(9^{\frac{1}{2} })^{2}=9^{\frac{1}{2} }*9^{\frac{1}{2} }

Since the base is the same, that is 9, we simply add the exponents 1/2;

9^{\frac{1}{2}+\frac{1}{2} }

one-half plus one-half is equal to unity and any number raised to one is simply equal to the given number;

9^{1}=9

Find the equation of an exponential function in the form y = ab^x, given the points (0, 3) and (2, 108/25). Please simplify your
lilavasa [31]

We have the equation:

y=a\cdot b^x

We know two points and we will use them to calculate the parameters a and b.

The point (0,3) will let us know a, as b^0=1.

\begin{gathered} y=a\cdot b^x \\ 3=a\cdot b^0=a \\ a=3 \end{gathered}

Now, we use the point (2, 108/25) to calcualte b:

\begin{gathered} y=3\cdot b^x \\ \frac{108}{25}=3\cdot b^2 \\ 3\cdot b^2=\frac{108}{25} \\ b^2=\frac{108}{25\cdot3}=\frac{108}{3}\cdot\frac{1}{25}=\frac{36}{25} \\ b=\sqrt[]{\frac{36}{25}} \\ b=\frac{\sqrt[]{36}}{\sqrt[]{25}} \\ b=\frac{6}{5} \end{gathered}

Then, we can write the equation as:

y=3\cdot(\frac{6}{5})^x

In your lab, a substance's temperature has been observed to follow the function T(x) = (x − 4)3 + 6. The turning point of the gr
hichkok12 [17]

I assume (x-4)3 means (x-4)³.  What we wish is to set the derivative equal to zero.

Expanding the T(x) polynomial makes it easier for me to take the derivative.

So (x-4)³ = x³ - 12x² + 48x - 64 + 6

T'(x) = 3x² - 24x + 48

We can factor out a 3 and set this to zero:

x² - 8x + 16 = 0

(x -4)² = 0

x = 4 should therefore represent the turning point.

I am mildly chagrined, I almost used the f'(x) = nx^(n-1) function at first, which appears would have been correct.

Two angles are supplementary. One is 56° more than three times three times the other. Find the measures of the angles.
kaheart [24]
Supplementary means they equal 180 when added. Therefore:

X+56+3x=180
Combine common units
4x+56=180
Subtract 56 from both sides
4x=124
Divide by 4
X=31

Now we know the smaller angle is 31 degrees. Now we plug that into the larger angle:
3(31)+56
93+56
149

The larger angle is 149 degrees.

I hope this Helps!
