Answer:
x^-5 = x to the power of negative 5
Step-by-step explanation:
Which of these is equivalent to 1 over x to the power of 5 ?
Mathematically this is expressed as
(1/x)⁵
We have a rule when it comes to expressing power
(1/a)^b = a^-b
Hence, applying this rule to our question
(1/x)⁵ = (1/x)^5
= x^-5
This is written in words as:
x to the power of negative 5
-5(a + 3) = -55
(a + 3)(-5) = -55
(a + 3) (-5)/-5 = -55/ (-5)
a + 3 = 11
a + 3 (-3) = 11 (-3)
a = 8
hope this helps
