Answer:

1/16

Step-by-step explanation:

We know that a^ -b is equal to 1 / a^b

That means

4^-2 = 1/ 4^2  = 1/16

A brace for a shelf has the shape of a right triangle. Its hypotenuse is 10 inches long and the two legs are equal in length. Ho
vagabundo [1.1K]
This is a classic example of a 45-45-90 triangle: it's a right triangle (one angle of 90) & two other sides of the same length, which means two angles of the same length (and 45 is the only number that will work). With a 45-45-90 triangle, the lengths of the legs are easy to determine:
45-45-90
1-1-sqrt2
Where the hypotenuse corresponds to sqrt2.
Now, your hypotenuse is 10.
To figure out what each leg is, divide 10/sqrt2 (because sqrt2/sqrt2 = 1, which is a leg length in the explanation above).
Problem: you can't divide by radicals. So, we'll have to rationalize the denominator:
(10•sqrt2)/(sqrt2•sqrt2)
This can be rewritten:
10sqrt2/sqrt(2•2)
=10sqrt2/sqrt4
=10sqrt2/2
=5sqrt2 Hope this helps!!

Answer:

x= -2

Step-by-step explanation:

Rational Function can be expressed as:

\displaystyle \large{y =  \frac{a}{p(x - b)}  + q}

Where b is our horizontal shift and q is our vertical shift.

For asymptotes, there are two types which are vertical and horizontal.

Vertical Asymtote is the value of -b itself or x = -b.

Therefore, from the functio:

\displaystyle   \large{y =  \frac{10}{x + 2} }

Our vertical asymtote is x = -2
