Why does the base matter when simplifying negative exponents?

1 answer:

3 0

Answer:

A negative exponent just means that the base is on the wrong side of the fraction line, so you need to flip the base to the other side. For instance, "x–2" (pronounced as "ecks to the minus two") just means "x2, but underneath, as in 1 x 2 \frac{1}{x^2} x21 ".

1. The formula for the velocity of an object is d=v/t, where v is the object, d is the distance traveled, and t is the time the

Arlecino [84]

Answer:

you need to isolate t or time

you need to know distance between sun and earth and velocity of them in order to calculate how long it takes for light to travel from the Sun to Earth

Step-by-step explanation:

$t*(d)=(v/t)*t\\td= v\\\\\frac{td}{d} =v/d \\t=v/d$

to find time you multiply t to both sides then you cancel t from where velocity is and you get velocity by itself

now you mulipy d to both side to get v over d and time by itself
