(4,12) is the correct answer
1.6084 * 10^3 simplifies to 1608.4
When dealing with radicals and exponents, one must realize that fractional exponents deals directly with radicals. In that sense, sqrt(x) = x^1/2
Now, how to go about doing this:
In a fractional exponent, the numerator represents the actual exponent of the number. So, for x^2/3, the x is being squared.
For the denominator, that deals with the radical. The index, to be exact. The index describes what KIND of radical (or root) is being taken: square, cube, fourth, fifth, and so on. So, for our example x^2/3, x is squared, and that quantity is under a cube root (or a radical with a 3). Here are some more examples to help you understand a bit more:
x^6/5 = Fifth root of x^6
x^3/1 = x^3
^^^Exponential fractions still follow the same rules of simplifying, so...
x^2/4 = x^1/2 = sqrt(x)
Hope this helps!
Answer:
-14
Step-by-step explanation:
difference between -20 and -5 = 15
15 x 2/5 = 30/5 = 6
-20 + 6 = -14
Answer:
y = 3 · 2ˣ
Step-by-step explanation:
Exponential function is:
y = abˣ
Plug in the points:
⅜ = ab⁻³
12 = ab²
Solve the system of equations. Start by dividing the second equation by the first:
12 / ⅜ = (ab²) / (ab⁻³)
32 = b⁵
b = 2
Plug into either equation to find a:
a = 3
Therefore:
y = 3 · 2ˣ
