Answer:

To find the value of missing exponent, we have to split the number which is in other side of equal sign (which is not having power) as the multiple of base of the missing exponent.

On both sides, powers have the same base, so their exponents must be equal.

Step-by-step explanation:

<h3>Problem 1:</h3>

Write the missing exponent:

25=5^x

Let x be the missing exponent.

To find the value missing exponent, we have to split the number which is in the left side as the multiple of the base of the missing exponent.

That is,

25=5*5 or 5^2

Now,

5^2=5^x

Powers have the same base so their exponent must be equal.

Hence the missing exponent is 2

Which point is Not on a circle with a center of (0,0) and a radius of 10?

Burka [1]

It is A because the radius is 10 which means that if x=0 then y must equal 10. (0,5) would be inside of the circle. If this doesn't make sense graph the circle and the points and you'll see what I mean.

Write the first five terms of the sequence defined by the explicit formula

denis-greek [22]

<u>Answer:</u>

The correct answer option is: 19, 13, 3, -11, -29.

<u>Step-by-step explanation:</u>

We are given the following explicit formula for an arithmetic sequence:

$a_n=21-2n^2$

So to find the first five terms of this sequence, we will substitute the values of $n$ (num here in the given formula:

$a_1=21-2(1)^2\\\\a_1=19$

$a_2=21-2(2)^2\\\\a_2=13$

$a_3=21-2(3)^2\\\\a_3=3$

$a_4=21-2(4)^2\\\\a_4=-11$

$a_5=21-2(5)^2\\\\a_5=-29$

Therefore, the first five terms of the sequence defined by the explicit formula $a_n=21-2n^2$ are 19, 13, 3, -11, -29.

Express 3/5 as a decimal

lana66690 [7]

Answer:0.60

Step-by-step explanation:

Multiply the denominator (5) and the numerator (3) by 20. Both sides multiplied equals 60 as the numerator and 100 as the denominator. After the conversions to a decimal, your answer should be 0.60 since 60/100=0.60.
