You have to distribute the 4 to the numbers in the parenthesese. So 4 times 3x which is 12x and 4 times 5 which is 20 so now you get 12x plus 20 equals 8. Now you have to subtract 20 from 8 which is -12 so now you have 12x=-12 now divide the 12 from x and 12 from -12 and so now you have x=-1

Find the 75th term of the arithmetic sequence -1, 15, 31, ...−1,15,31,...
Readme [11.4K]

Answer:

1183

Step-by-step explanation:

Common difference:

d = 31 - 15 = 16

nth term:

a_n = a_1 + (n - 1)d

Here, a_1 = -1

a_{75} = -1 + (75 - 1)(16)

a_{75} = 1183

I'm genuinely lost in any problems like this and my teachers are no help, I need help doing exponents in general, everything to
Stolb23 [73]

Answer:

See below.

Step-by-step explanation:

4)

So we have the expression:

(-6n^{-3})^2

We can use the power of a product property, where:

(ab)^n=a^n\cdot b^n

So:

=(-6)^2\cdot(n^{-3})^2

For the left, -6 squared is the same as -6 times -6. This equals positive 36.

For the right, we can use the power of a power property. The property says that:

(a^n)^k=a^{nk}

So:

(n^{-3})^2=n^{(-3)(2)}\\=n^{-6}

So, all together, we have:

=(-6)^2\cdot(n^{-3})^2\\=36n^{-6}

6)

We have the expression:

-\frac{3x^0}{x^4}

First, note that anything to the zeroth power (except for 0) is 1, thus, x^0 is also 1. Simplify:

=-\frac{3}{x^4}

And that's the simplest we can do :)

Notes for 6)

We <em>can</em> put the x^4 to the numerator. Recall that when you put an exponent to opposite side, you put a negative. In other words:

x^n=\frac{1}{x^{-n}}

And vice versa:

\frac{1}{x^{-n}}=x^n

So, we can write the above as:

=-\frac{3}{x^4}\\=-\frac{3}{x^{-(-4)}}\\=-3x^{-4}

However, traditionally, we want only positive exponents, so this wouldn't be correct.
