Complete the table of values

Agata [3.3K]

Both problems give you a function in the second column and the x-values. To find out the values of a through f, you need to plug in those x-values into the function and simplify!

You need to know three exponent rules to simplify these expressions:
1) The negative exponent rule says that when a base has a negative exponent, flip the base onto the other side of the fraction to make it into a positive exponent. For example, $3^{-2} =
\frac{1}{3^{2} }$ .
2) Raising a fraction to a power is the same as separately raising the numerator and denominator to that power. For example, $(\frac{3}{4}) ^{3} = \frac{ 3^{3} }{4^{3} }$ .
3) The zero exponent rule says that any number raised to zero is 1. For example, $3^{0} = 1$ .


Back to the Problem:
Problem 1
The x-values are in the left column. The title of the right column tells you that the function is $y = 4^{-x}$ . The x-values are:
1) x = 0
Plug this into $y = 4^{-x}$ to find letter a:
$y = 4^{-x}\\
y = 4^{-0}\\
y = 4^{0}\\
y = 1$

2) x = 2
Plug this into $y = 4^{-x}$ to find letter b:
$y = 4^{-x}\\ 
y = 4^{-2}\\ 
y = \frac{1}{4^{2}} \\ 
y= \frac{1}{16}$

3) x = 4
Plug this into $y = 4^{-x}$ to find letter c:
$y = 4^{-x}\\ 
y = 4^{-4}\\ 
y = \frac{1}{4^{4}} \\ 
y= \frac{1}{256}$


Problem 2
The x-values are in the left column. The title of the right column tells you that the function is $y = (\frac{2}{3})^x$ . The x-values are:
1) x = 0
Plug this into $y = (\frac{2}{3})^x$ to find letter d:
$y = (\frac{2}{3})^x\\
y = (\frac{2}{3})^0\\
y = 1$

2) x = 2
Plug this into $y = (\frac{2}{3})^x$ to find letter e:
$y = (\frac{2}{3})^x\\ y = (\frac{2}{3})^2\\ y = \frac{2^2}{3^2}\\
y = \frac{4}{9}$

3) x = 4
Plug this into $y = (\frac{2}{3})^x$ to find letter f:
$y = (\frac{2}{3})^x\\ y = (\frac{2}{3})^4\\ y = \frac{2^4}{3^4}\\ y = \frac{16}{81}$

-------

Answers:
a = 1
b = $\frac{1}{16}$ 
c = $\frac{1}{256}$
d = 1
e = $\frac{4}{9}$
f = $\frac{16}{81}$

The larger number is 18 more than twice the smaller.if the sum of the two numbers is 93,find both numbers

kodGreya [7K]

Answer:

I believe the numbers are 25 and 68.

Step-by-step explanation:

25 is the smaller number, 25 x 2 = 50, 50 + 18 = 68, and 68 + 25 = 93.

How do you find the area of the shaded sector of the circle? The radius is 10in and the sector is 45 degrees

Step2247 [10]

Given:

Radius of the circle = 10 in

Central angle of the sector = 45 degrees

To find:

The area of the sector.

Solution:

Area of a sector is

$A=\dfrac{\theta}{360^\circ}\pi r^2$

Where, $\theta$ is the central angle in degrees.

Putting r=10 and $\theta=45^\circ$ , we get

$A=\dfrac{45^\circ}{360^\circ}\pi (10)^2$

$A=\dfrac{1}{8}\pi (100)$

$A=12.5\pi$

Therefore, the area of the sector is 12.5π sq. inches.

On a coordinate plane, point AS

nlexa [21]

Answer:

√1370 or about 37.01

Step-by-step explanation:

use distance formula

√(x2-x1)^2+(y2-y1)^2

sqrt(8-7)^2+(41-4)^2

sqrt(1)^2+(37)^2

sqrt 1+1369

sqrt 1370

= about 37. 01

Please help on this one?

Verdich [7]

A, since the graph is not in a "U" shape aka parabola the degree cant be 2 so C is wrong and B and D are negative fuctions while the graph is showing one that is positive.
