84. Use properties of exponents to rewrite each expression with only positive, rational exponents. Then find the numerical value

of each expression when x = 9, y= 8, and z= 16. In each case, the expression evaluates to a rational number.

Answer:

a) 1/27

b) 16

c) 1/8

Step-by-step explanation:

a) x^{-3/2}

One of the properties of the exponents tells us that when we have a negative exponent we can express it in terms of its positive exponent by turning it into the denominator (and changing its sign), so we would have:

x^{-3/2}=\frac{1}{x^{3/2} }

And now, solving for x = 9 we have:

\frac{1}{x^{3/2}}=\frac{1}{9^{3/2} }  =\frac{1}{27}

b) y^{4/3}

This is already a positive rational exponent so we are just going to substitute the value of y = 8 into the expression

y^{4/3}=8^{4/3}=16

c) z^{-3/4}

Using the same property we used in a) we have:

z^{-3/4}=\frac{1}{z^{3/4} }

And now, solving for z = 16 we have:

\frac{1}{z^3/4} } =\frac{1}{16^{3/4} } =\frac{1}{8}

The weight of an object on Earth varies directly as the weight of the same object on the moon. A 300 pound object on Earth would
slava [35]

Answer: 12 pounds.

Step-by-step explanation:

To solve this question, we'll use the direct proportion which is.

y = kx

Where,

y = weight on moon = 48 pounds

x = weight on Earth = 300 pounds

k = Unknown

y = kx

48 = 300k

k = 48/300

k = 0.16

The weight that a 75 pound object on Earth would weigh on the moon will be:

y = kx

where,

y = weight on moon = Unknown

k = 0.16

x = weight on Earth = 75 pounds

y = kx

y= 0.16 × 75

y = 12 pounds

The weight on the moon will be 12 pounds.
