The bases were not the same when the exponents were set equal to each other.
16 should have been written as 4 squared.
The exponent on the right should be 4a instead of 8a.
The correct solution is a=-3/4.
The answer is p=3, here is the process and the steps to find the answer.
The permimiter of a is 18 and the area is 9
Answer:
A
Step-by-step explanation:
really ? you need help to calculate the 2 results of
(2 ± 6) / 2
?
one result is
(2 + 6) / 2 = 8/2 = 4
the other result is
(2 - 6) / 2 = -4/2 = -2
there ! that is all there is to it.
is there still something unclear ?
Answer is choice C) 4x^2-3x+9
You list off the terms in a way where the largest exponent term comes first, then the second largest exponent is next, and so forth. Note how the last term 9 is the same as 9x^0. The term 3x is equivalent to 3x^1. So what we really have is 4x^2-3x^1+9x^0. The exponents count down: 2, 1, 0
