Answer:

Option (1)

Step-by-step explanation:

-8.3+9.2-4.4+3.7 john has used his first step as -8.3+9.2+4.4+3.7.

He has use additive inverse as their is no information is given about the additive inverse -4.4 can not be converted +4.4 .this is his incorrect step.

So, the correct steps are

-8.3+9.2-4.4+3.7

= (-8.3-4.4)+(9.2+3.7)

= -12.7+12.9

= 0.2

Hence, there is need to change the step  !.

Hence, the correct answer is 1.

Additive inverse; you can't just take -4.4 and make it positive.

Which graph represents an exponential function?
geniusboy [140]

Answer:The function that represents an exponential function is the 4th graph and it can be modeled as y = aeᵇˣ.

What are exponential functions?

The exponential functions are written in the form of y = aeᵇˣ, where the output y increases exponentially for the input x.

In order to find the graph that represents an exponential function, we will discuss each of the following graphs,

For the 1st graph, (Black),

In the first graph, the graph is of a parabola, and the function which represents this kind of graph is a quadratic equation, therefore, this graph represents a parabolic equation. It is given by the function,

y=ax²+bx+c or y=a(x-h)²+k

For the 2nd graph, (Red),

In the second graph, the graph represented is the graph of a reciprocal function, the function that can be represented by the graph,

y=a/x + b

For the 3rd graph, (Blue),

In the third graph, the graph represented is the graph of root function, it can be modeled as,

y = a+√(x+b)

For the 4th graph, (Green),

In the fourth graph, the graph represented is the graph of an exponential function, and it can be modeled as,

y = aeᵇˣ

Hence, the function that represents an exponential function is the 4th graph and it can be modeled as y = aeᵇˣ.

Write an expression with (-1) as its base that will product a negative product
algol [13]

Base of the exponential equation should be (-1).

And finally the product or result should also be a negative number.

Let us take a variable for n natural numbers.

(Note: All positive whole numbers are called natural numbers that is  1,2,3,4,5,....).

In order to get the expression, we need to find the expession for odd natural numbers.

We know,

The expession for odd natural numbers is given by = 2n-1.

Where n= 1,2,3,4,5...

If we have an odd exponent of a negative number, it always gives a negative number.

We got, base = -1  ( a negative number) and

exponent = (2n-1)    ........... expression for odd number.

Therefore, we could write final exponential expression that would give a negative for all natural numbers.

(-1)^{2n-1}
