13a.) If you're dividing and the base (in this case the base is 10) is the same, subtract the exponents.
13b.) If you're multiplying and the base is the same, then you add the exponents:
13c.) This is similar to 13b:
The last one x^4.
A: If you bring 2^-5 to the numerator which is what the - expects you to do, then you get x^5 which is 32
B: No problem here. 32 = 32
C: 2^1 * 2^4 = 2^(1 + 4) = 2^5.
C: 2^5 is 32
D: 2^4 = 16.
Answer: D does not agree with the others.
Step-by-step explanation:
5. answer ➡D
6 . answer ➡A
8 . answer ➡C
Answer:
Step-by-step explanation
subtract 8 from both sides
8-2x-8=-4x+4-8
simplify
-2x=-4x-4
add 4x to both sides
-2x+4x=-4x-4+4x
Simplify
2x=-4
divide both sides by 2
2x/2=4/2
simplify
x=-2
