Why can't you use the product of powers rule to simplify this expression? Explain. 3^4•2^8

1 answer:

6 0

To use the product of powers rule, the powers must have the same base. In this expression, the bases are 3 and 2, which are different, so the rule does not apply.

What does g(x) equal for number 4?

Arisa [49]

G(x) is a quadratic function with a parabolic graph that opens up and has vertex at (0,0). If we dilate this vertically by a factor of 6, we get h(x) = 6x^2.

If we translate the graph of h(x) 1 unit up and 4 units to the right, we get

k(x) = 6(x-4)^2 + 1.

The cone had a radius of 4.5 inches and a height of 6 inches. What is the volume of this cone?

pochemuha

Answer:

125.8983

Step-by-step explanation:

Use the formula for volume of a cone: v= (1/3)(3.14)(radius squared)(height) so v = (1/3)(3.14)(20.25)(6) = 125.8983

<h3>Answer: 1080</h3>

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

Explanation:

We have an octagon because there are n = 8 sides. The diagram below shows one way to number the sides so you can count them efficiently (without missing any or double counting any).

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

Plug n = 8 into the formula below

S = 180(n-2)

S = 180(8-2)

S = 180(6)

S = 1080

The 8 interior angles add up to 1080 degrees.
