The number is 2, 2^2=4,  2^-2=1/4

 First, you could solve this problem algebraically. You could write x^-2=1/4. Next, you may apply the Laws of Exponents, where there's the rule of a^-m=1/a^m. In this case, this shows that x^-2 is equal to 1/x^2. Plus, all you have to do now is solve algebraically, which you can do so by doing cross-products or taking the square root of 4 to find x, as x squared is equal to 4. Your final equation may look like 4=x^2, where you solve for x.

3. Why does it tako 3 copies of; to show the same amount as 1 copy of ?? Explain your answer in words
Amanda [17]
Because 3/6 is equal to 1/2.
You multiply the 1 (in 1/2) by 3, and the 2 (in 1/2) by 3 to get 3/6. You need to have a common denominator, and 6 was the common denominator.

Line K has the equation 9x-4y=-5x4.
Yuki888 [10]

Answer:

y = (9/4)x + 2, given that I've assume the correct meaning of "-5x4."

Step-by-step explanation:

A parallel line has the same slope as the reference line,

The reference line is 9x-4y = -5x4, as written.  I'm not sure the 4 belongs, but I'll assume it is written correctly.  I'm not sure if the term -5x4 is meant to mean -5x^4, -20x or -20.  I'll assume -20:

9x-4y = -20

Put the equation into standard slope-intercept form:  Y = mx + b, where m is the slope and b is the y-intercept (the value of y when  x = 0).

-4y = -9x - 20

y = (9/4)x + 5

This line has a slope of (9/4).  The parallel line will have the same slope.

y = (9/4)x + b

We can find a value of b that would shift this line to include (4,7) by using this point in the equation:

y = (9/4)x + b

7 = (9/4)(4) + b

7  = 9 + b

b = 2

The equation of a line parallel to the reference line is y = (9/4)x + 2

Terri invested $1500 in an account with an interest rate of 2.25% compounded continuously. How long will it take for Teri’s acco
melomori [17]

Answer:

53.51 years

Step-by-step explanation:

FV = PV e⁽ⁿˣ⁾

FV = Future Value = $5000

PV = Present Value = $1500

n = Interest Rate = 2.25%

x = time in years = ?

e = mathematical constant = 2.7183

So,

5000 = 1500 e⁽⁰°⁰⁰²⁵ˣ⁾

50 / 15 = e⁽⁰°⁰⁰²⁵ˣ⁾

㏑ (3.3333) = 0.0225x ㏑ (2.7183)

1.2040 = 0.0225x

x = 53.51 year

So, If compounded continuously at an APR of 2.25% the amount invested in an account of $1500 will accumulate to $5000 in 53.51 years.
