Let the unknown number be x.

x × -7 = 7 (x + -40)

-7x = 7x - 280

-14x = -280

x = 280/14

x = 20

Hope this helps!

1. Explain why n root a^n= |a| when n is even, but not when n is odd.
kogti [31]

Step-by-step explanation:

In the expression a^n, for integer values of n greater than 1, there are n factors. For example, a^2 = a * 2 (2 factors), a^3 = a * a * a (3 factors), etc.

For a non-negative value of a, a^n is non-negative for all values of n.

If a is negative, and n is even, then a^n is non-negative.

If a is negative, and n is odd, then a^n is negative.

|a| is non-negative for all values of a.

sqrt_n(a^n) is negative for negative a and odd n, but |a| is always non-negative, so sqrtn(a^n) cannot equal |a| for odd n.

LenKa [72]

Out of 120 students in exam, 2/3 of them passed. How many students passed?

Marco starts with a population of 10 bacteria that doubles every day for a number of days, d. He writes the expression 10(2d) to
riadik2000 [5.3K]

Answer:

Marco- 10 is the starting value of the population. 2 is the growth rate of "double each day" with d as an exponent.

Isabella- 1 is the starting population. 1+0.2=1.2 is the rate at which it grows each day.

Step-by-step explanation:

Marco's equation should be 10(2^{d}) since the bacteria double each day. 10 is the starting value of the population. 2 is the growth rate of "double each day" with d as an exponent. This will double each day because:

Day 1 is 2^{1}=2

Day 2 is 2^{2}=4

Day 3 is 2^{3}=8

Day 4 is 2^{4}=16

You'll notice the value doubles each day.

Isabella has a different equation because her population increases by a percentage. We use the simple interest formula to calculate the bacteria's daily increase or interest.

1(1+0.2)d

1 is the starting population.

1+0.2=1.2 is the rate at which it grows each day.
