<h2>Answer:</h2><h2>After evaluating, the expression becomes $\sqrt[a]{a^{x} }$ + 2</h2>

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that ab = x

then b = $\frac{x}{a}$ ... (1)

To evaluate the expression, $a^{b}$ + 2 ... (2)

Substitute eq (1) in eq (2), we get

= $a^{\frac{x}{a} }$ + 2

= $a^{(x) (\frac{1}{a}) }$ + 2

= $\sqrt[a]{a^{x} }$ + 2

After evaluating, the expression becomes $\sqrt[a]{a^{x} }$ + 2

What is an equation of the tangent line at x = 4, assuming that f(4) = 3 and f '(4) = 2? (enter your answer as an equation using

Margaret [11]

The general equation for a line in the case where the slope and one point on the line are known is y-b = m(x-a), where m is the slope and (a,b) is the point.

Here f(4) = 3 corresponds to the point (4,3), and f '(4) = 2 corresponds to the slope of the tangent line at that point.

Thus the equation of the tangent line here is

y - 3 = 2(x - 4).

An alternative form of this equation would be y = 3 + 2x - 8, or

y = 2x - 5

There are 8 cups of pasta in 22 servings. Write a proportion that gives the number x of cups of pasta in 3 servings.

Lisa [10]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Cups: servings

8 : 22 :: x : 3

Product of means = product of extremes

22*x = 3*8

$x = \dfrac{3*8}{22}=\dfrac{3*4}{11}=\dfrac{12}{11}=1\dfrac{1}{11}$
