Does 1/2+1/8 = to 3/4

2 answers:

5 0

1/2 is 2/4, and so we would need another 1/4 to make it equal to 3/4
1/8 is not equal to 1/4, so 1/2+1/8 does not equal 3/4

No because you find the common denominator which is 8, then multiply what you got on the bottom to the top. 4/8 + 1/8 = 5/8

Write an exponential equation in the form y = ab* whose graph passes through points (2, 18) and (5, 60.75).

DochEvi [55]

Let $y=ab^x,$ as described in the problem statement. Plugging in $x=2$ and $x=5$ gives us the equations $18=ab^2$ and $60.75=ab^5.$ Since $a,b$ are nonzero, we divide the second equation by the first to get $\frac{27}{8}=b^3,$ which means that $b=\frac{3}{2},$ after taking the cube root. Plugging this value for $b$ into the first equation, we now have $18=a(3/2)^2=\frac{9a}{4}.$ Solving gives $a=8,$ and our desired exponential equation is $\boxed{y=8\left(\frac{3}{2}\right)^x}.$
