Which equation below gives an incorrect value for the function k(x) = 512 x ?

The function is  k(x) = 512 · x .

Try 'A':      k(2/3) = (512) · (2/3) =  341.33...   not 64

Try 'B':      k(4/9) = (512) · (4/9) =  257.55...    not 16  

Try 'C':      k(1/3) = (512) · (1/3) =  170.66...    not 8

Try 'D':      k(2/9) = (512) (2/9) =  113.77...    not 8 .

So far, it looks like NONE of the choices is correct.

But wait !  There's more !

What if the actual function is                   k(x)  =  512ˣ
that is,  512 raised to the 'x' power ?
That would be a horse of a different cruller.

Let's try THAT out.

First, here are two facts that we'll need:

         ==>  512 ^ 1/3  =  8
and
         ==>  512 ^ 1/9  =  2 .

OK. NOW ...

Try 'A':  k(2/3) = (512) ^ 2/3  =  8^2 = 64             yes !

Try 'B':  k(4/9)  =  (512) ^ 4/9  =  2^4  =  16        yes !

Try 'C':  k(1/3)  =  (512) ^ 1/3  =  8                      yes !

Try 'D':  k(2/9)  =  (512) ^ 2/9  =  2^2  =  4  not  8 .

So here's what we have learned:

-- The function in the question is actually    k(x) = 512 ^ x

-- Choice-D is the incorrect one.

I NEED HELPPP<br><br> Whats the length of LN?
andre [41]

Answer:

LN = 66 cm

Step-by-step explanation:

The 3 parallel lines divide the 2 sides they intersect in proportion, that is

\frac{DE}{EF} = \frac{LM}{MN} , substitute values

\frac{7}{15} = \frac{LM}{45} ( cross- multiply )

15LM = 315 ( divide both sides by 15 )

LM = 21

Hence

LN = LM + MN =  21 + 45 = 66 cm

Which of the following describe 8? Select all that apply.
pav-90 [236]

8 is a<u> Natural number, </u><u>Whole number, Integer and Real number</u>

<h3>What is an integer?</h3>

An integer is a number that cannot be expressed as fraction. They are known as whole numbers.

For natural numbers, they are value that starts from 1 and above. Since 8 is greater than 1, hence it is a natural number.

Real number includes both fractions and whole numbers, hence 8 is also a real number.

Based on the explanation, we can conclude that 8 is a<u> Natural number, </u><u>Whole number, Integer and Real number</u>
