Simplify (8c^4w^2)^2 show work

Mathematics
1 answer:
muminat3 years ago
7 0

Exponents are not particularly mysterious. They show repeated multiplication. That is ...

... c⁴ = c·c·c·c

... w² = w·w

Then the factor inside parentheses is ...

... 8·c·c·c·c·w·w

The exponent outside parentheses tells you the number of times this is repeated as a factor:

... (8c⁴w²)² = (8·c·c·c·c·w·w)(8·c·c·c·c·w·w)

... = 8·8·c·c·c·c·c·c·c·c·w·w·w·w = 64c⁸w⁴

_____

You can take advantage of the fact that multiplication is repeated addition, so the exponents of the various factors can be found by multiplying the outside exponent by the inside exponents.

\displaystyle\left(8c^{4}w^{2}\right)^{2}=8^{2}\cdot c^{4\cdot 2}\cdot w^{2\cdot 2}\\\\=64c^{8}w^{4}

Vlada [557]
Ok so domain is all allowed numbers look at deonomenator and don't allow any numbers that will make it zero none that means domain=all real numbers vertex in form y=a(x-h)^2+k (h,k)=vertex we have y=-2(x+3)^2-1 h=-3 k=-1 vertex=(-3,-1) range the vertex opens down so max is y=-1 y≤-1 domain is all real vertex is (-3,-1) y≤-1 C

Goshia [24]
39/1.5 = 26 km per hour
51/3 = 17 km per hour
Then you need the mean. 26+17/2 = 21.5 km per hour

Which explanation can be used to derive the formula for the circumference of a circle?
MrRa [10]
First, find the relationship of the circumference to its diameter by finding that the length of the diameter wraps around the length of the circumference approximately π times. Use this relationship to writing an equation showing the ratio of circumference to diameter equaling π. Then rearrange the equation to solve for the circumference. Substitute the diameter for 2 times the radius
