=1/2
you add both on each side then subtract 2 from you anser
Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
Suppose :
62% own an HDTV
16% own a computer
Using the addition rule : suggests that (62% + 16%) = 78% either own an HDTV or a computer.
The reasoning is wrong because ; since it is possible to own both an HDTV and also own a computer at the same time, the outcome of the addition rule is wrong as both events are independent. If both event cannot occur at the same time (mutually exclusive event) , then, the addition rule may be applied,. But since both can occur independently and each family can own an HDTV while also owning a computer, then the addition rule is wrong for the scenario described.
Answer:
d.
Step-by-step explanation:
To convert a root to a fraction in the exponent, remember this rule:
![\sqrt[n]{a^{m}}=a^{\frac{m}{n}}](https://tex.z-dn.net/?f=%5Csqrt%5Bn%5D%7Ba%5E%7Bm%7D%7D%3Da%5E%7B%5Cfrac%7Bm%7D%7Bn%7D%7D)
The index becomes the denominator in the fraction. (The index is the little number in front of the root, "n".) The original exponent remains in the numerator.
In this question, the index is 4.
The index is applied to every base in the equation under the root. The bases are 16, 'x' and 'y'.
![\sqrt[4]{16x^{15}y^{17}} = (\sqrt[4]{16})(\sqrt[4]{x^{15}})(\sqrt[4]{y^{17}}) = (2)(x^{\frac{15}{4}}})(y^{\frac{17}{4}}) = 2x^{\frac{15}{4}}}y^{\frac{17}{4}}](https://tex.z-dn.net/?f=%5Csqrt%5B4%5D%7B16x%5E%7B15%7Dy%5E%7B17%7D%7D%20%3D%20%28%5Csqrt%5B4%5D%7B16%7D%29%28%5Csqrt%5B4%5D%7Bx%5E%7B15%7D%7D%29%28%5Csqrt%5B4%5D%7By%5E%7B17%7D%7D%29%20%3D%20%282%29%28x%5E%7B%5Cfrac%7B15%7D%7B4%7D%7D%7D%29%28y%5E%7B%5Cfrac%7B17%7D%7B4%7D%7D%29%20%3D%202x%5E%7B%5Cfrac%7B15%7D%7B4%7D%7D%7Dy%5E%7B%5Cfrac%7B17%7D%7B4%7D%7D)
To find the quad root of 16, input this into your calculator. Since 2⁴ = 16, ![\sqrt[4]{16}](https://tex.z-dn.net/?f=%5Csqrt%5B4%5D%7B16%7D)
= 2.
For the "x" and "y" bases, use the rule for converting roots to exponent fractions. The index, 4, becomes the denominator in each fraction.
Answer:
4(2x - 5)
Step-by-step explanation:
Rewrite "20" as 4 * 5
Rewrite "8" as 4 * 2
=4 * 2x - 4 * 5
Factor out common term "4"
=4(2x - 5) <------ Your answer.
Answer:
2p+17
Step-by-step explanation:
twice p = p x 2 or 2p
so, 17 more than 2p (meaning 2p is increased by 17) is equal to 2p+17
