Answer:

The number is 16

Step-by-step explanation:

3/4 n- (-16) = 28

3/4 n + 16 = 28

Subtract 16 from each side

3/4 n +16-16 = 28-16

3/4 n =12

Multiply by 4/3 to isolate n

4/3 * 3/4 n = 12 * 4/3

n = 16

Is g(x)= (x-2)(x-9)(x-1) the factored form of f(x)=x^3+8x^2-11x-18

strojnjashka [21]

We can check to see if (x - 2)(x - 9)(x - 1) is the factored form of x^3 + 8x^2 - 11x - 18 by using foil.

(x - 2)(x - 9)(x - 1)

(x - 2)x^2 - x - 9x + 9

Combine like terms.

(x - 2)x^2 - 10x + 9

FOIL again.

x^3 - 10x^2 + 9x - 2x^2 + 20x - 18

Combine like terms.

x^3 - 12x^2 + 29x - 18

Which expression is equivalent to 32 ⋅ 3−5? fraction 1 over 3 to the power 3 fraction 1 over 3 to the power 7 fraction 1 over 3

mars1129 [50]

Given expression 3² × 3⁻⁵

We will apply the power rule $x^m*x^n=x^{m+n}$

3² × 3⁻⁵ = 3²⁺⁽⁻⁵⁾ = 3²⁻⁵ = 3⁻³

We will then apply the power rule $x^{-n} = \frac{1}{x^n}$

3⁻³ = $\frac{1}{3^3}$

Final answer: $\frac{1}{3^3}$
