Which is the value of this expression when a=5 and k=-2

Mathematics
1 answer:
Zinaida [17]3 years ago
3 0

Answer:

Option C is correct.

Step-by-step explanation:

We are given the expression:

(\frac{3^2a^{-2}}{3a^{-1}})^k

The value of a =5 and k = -2

Putting the values and solving

=(\frac{3^2*5^{-2}}{3*5^{-1}})^-2\\=(\frac{3^{2-1}}{5^{-1+2}})^-2\\=(\frac{3^{1}}{5^{1}})^-2\\\\=(\frac{3}{5})^-2\\if \,\,a^{-1} \,\,then\,\, 1/a\\=\frac{(3)^{-2}}{(5)^{-2}}\\ Can\,\,be\,\,written\,\,as\\\\=\frac{(5)^{2}}{(3)^{2}} \\=\frac{25}{9}

Option C is correct.

8xy= 2(2x + y) solve for y
STatiana [176]

Answer:  \displaystyle y= \frac{2\text{x}}{4\text{x} - 1}

============================================

Work Shown:

8\text{x}y= 2(2\text{x} + y)\\\\8\text{x}y= 4\text{x} + 2y\\\\8\text{x}y - 2y= 4\text{x}\\\\y(8\text{x} - 2)= 4\text{x}\\\\y= \frac{4\text{x}}{8\text{x} - 2}\\\\y= \frac{2*2\text{x}}{2(4\text{x} - 1)}\\\\y= \frac{2\text{x}}{4\text{x} - 1}\\\\

---------------

Explanation:

The idea is to first get all the y terms to one side. I did this by subtracting 2y from both sides in the third step.

Then factor out y and divide both sides by (8x-2)

Afterward there's the optional steps of simplifying (as shown in the final two steps).

Consider the function f (x) = x2.
klio [65]

Answer: The graph is shifted 2 units to the right.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given a function f(x), we know that one transformation rule is:

If f(x-k) then the function is shifted "k" units to the right.

 Therefore, for the function f(x)=x^{2}, when we subtract 2 from the input, then we get the function g(x) in the form:

 g(x)=(x-2)^{2}

We can conclude that subtracting 2 from the input of the function f(x)=x^{2}, then the graph is shifted 2 units to the right.

How many ways can eight letters be arranged into groups of five where order matters and the first two letters are already chosen
fenix001 [56]

Answer:

120

Step-by-step explanation:

Since we're dealing with a problem where the order matters and the first two letters are already chosen we need to subtract the number of letters and the number of available slots per group.

We use the permutation formula to find the answer, but before that let's check values.

n = 8

k = 5

Now since there are two letters already chosen we have to deduct two from both the value of n and k.

n = 6

k = 3

Now we can use the permutation formula:

_{n}P_{k}=\dfrac{n!}{(n-k)!}

_{6}P_{3}=\dfrac{6!}{6-3)!}

_{6}P_{3}=\dfrac{6!}{3!}

_{6}P_{3}=\dfrac{6*5*4*3*2*1}{3*2*1}

The 3*2*1 cancels out and leaves us with:

_{6}P_{3}=6*5*4

_{6}P_{3}=120

So there are 120 possible ways to arrange eight letters into groups of five where order matters and the first two letters are already chosen.
