A) because when they are equal it means that their y has the same value, which means their intersection point.

B) You should take all integers from (-2, 2) which are: -2, -1, 0, 1, 2 and put them one by one in the example:
x = -2
y1 = 4^-(-2) = 4^2 = 16
y2 = 2^(-(-2) + 1) = 2^(2+1) = 2^3 = 8
y1 ≠ y2 => so x=-2 isn't our answer
-------------------------------------------------------
x = -1
  y1 = 4^-(-1) = 4^1 = 4
y2 = 2^(-(-1) + 1) = 2^(1+1) = 2^2 = 4
y1 = y2   =>   so our answer will be x = -1
-------------------------------------------------------
x = 0
  y1 = 4^-(0) = 4^0 = 1
y2 = 2^(-(0) + 1) = 2^(0+1) = 2^1 = 2
y1 ≠ y2 => so x=0 isn't our answer
--------------------------------------------------------------
x = 1
  y1 = 4^-(1) = 4^(-1) = 1/4
y2 = 2^(-(1) + 1) = 2^(-1+1) = 2^0 = 1
y1 ≠ y2 => so x=1 isn't our answer
--------------------------------------------------------------
x = 2
  y1 = 4^-(2) = 4^(-2) = 1/16
y2 = 2^(-(2) + 1) = 2^(-2+1) = 2^(-1) = 1/2
y1 ≠ y2 => so x=2 isn't our answer

Which means that our final answer is: x=-1

C) You should draw both graphics, and their intersection point (x) will be the answer.

I hope it helped.

2(3/4)=5<br> 3(4×2)=1<br> 1/4+4/3

Andrej [43]

Answer:

$2( \frac{3}{4} )= 5 \\ \frac{3}{2} = 5 \\ 3 = 5 \times 2 \\ 3 = 10$
