Why is 3 to the power 0 = 1

Mathematics
1 answer:
Nostrana [21]3 years ago
4 0
When we raise something to a power, it really justs means we are multiplying it by itself. 3^2 (3 to the power of 2) means that we are mutliplying 3 by itself: 3•3 = 9 or 3^2 = 9 (there are two 3's) 

However, when we rasie something to the 0 power, it equals 1. That is because we are multiplying it by itself 0 times. We are not multiplying it by zero, we are effectively doing nothing at all. 3^0 = 1

Which statements are true based on the diagram? Check all that apply.
GrogVix [38]
First statement: False. Points K, M and N form a triangle.
Second statement: True. Points J, K, and Q are on the same line.
Third statement: False. KN and MQ intersect at N, not at R.
Fourth statement: False. JQ and KM intersect at K, but MQ does not pass through it.
Fifth statement: True. By definition, there is always only 1 line that can be drawn between 2 given points.

Find the measure of the arc indicated
exis [7]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Angle GPE is an inscribed angle.  It intercepts arc GFE.  The rule for inscribed angles and the arcs they intercept is that the angle is half the measure of the arc it intercepts.  Angle P is 96, so that means that arc GFE is twice that.  2(96) = 192.  We have arc FG as 92, so that means that arc FE is 192 - 92 which is 100 degrees.  The third choice down.

One number is 18 more than another number. The sum of the numbers is 36. find the numbers
tatuchka [14]

We can use a system of equations in order to solve for both of the numbers. Let's start off by assigning variables to each number. The bigger number can be 'x', and the smaller number can be 'y'.

We can make two equations from the given:

x = 18 + y

("One number is 18 more than another number")

x + y = 36

("The sum of the numbers is 36")

If you look at the first equation, the variable 'x' already has a value (18 + y). We can input its value into the second equation in order to solve for y:

x + y = 36

(18 + y) + y = 36

18 + 2y = 36

2y = 18

y = 9

Input the value of 'y' into the first equation:

x = 18 + y

x = 18 + 9

x = 27

<u>One number is 27 and the other number number is 9.</u>

<u></u>

Let me know if you'd like me to explain anything I did here.

Better Products, Inc., manufactures three products on two machines. In a typical week, 40 hours are available on each machine. T
Kaylis [27]

Answer:

z (max)  =  1250 $

x₁  = 25    x₂  =  0   x₃  =  25

Step-by-step explanation:

                                Profit $    mach. 1      mach. 2

Product 1     ( x₁ )       30             0.5              1

Product 2    ( x₂ )       50             2                  1

Product 3    ( x₃ )       20             0.75             0.5

Machinne 1 require  2 operators

Machine   2 require  1  operator

Amaximum of  100 hours of labor available

Then Objective Function:

z  =  30*x₁  +  50*x₂  +  20*x₃      to maximize

Constraints:

1.-Machine 1 hours available  40

In machine 1    L-H  we will need

0.5*x₁  +  2*x₂  + 0.75*x₃  ≤  40

2.-Machine 2   hours available  40

1*x₁  +  1*x₂   + 0.5*x₃   ≤  40

3.-Labor-hours available   100

Machine 1     2*( 0.5*x₁ +  2*x₂  +  0.75*x₃ )

Machine  2       x₁   +   x₂   +  0.5*x₃  

Total labor-hours   :  

2*x₁  +  5*x₂  +  2*x₃  ≤  100

4.- Production requirement:

x₁  ≤  0.5 *( x₁ +  x₂  +  x₃ )     or   0.5*x₁  -  0.5*x₂  -  0.5*x₃  ≤ 0

5.-Production requirement:

x₃  ≥  0,2 * ( x₁  +  x₂   +  x₃ )  or    -0.2*x₁  - 0.2*x₂ + 0.8*x₃   ≥  0

General constraints:

x₁  ≥   0       x₂    ≥   0       x₃     ≥   0           all integers

The model is:

z  =  30*x₁  +  50*x₂  +  20*x₃      to maximize

Subject to:

0.5*x₁  +  2*x₂  + 0.75*x₃  ≤  40

1*x₁  +  1*x₂   + 0.5*x₃       ≤  40

2*x₁  +  5*x₂  +  2*x₃        ≤  100

0.5*x₁  -  0.5*x₂  -  0.5*x₃  ≤ 0

-0.2*x₁  - 0.2*x₂ + 0.8*x₃   ≥  0

x₁  ≥   0       x₂    ≥   0       x₃     ≥   0           all integers

After 6 iterations with the help of the on-line solver AtomZmaths we find

z (max)  =  1250 $

x₁  = 25    x₂  =  0   x₃  =  25
