Answer:
The answer is "As the number of files increases, the storage space used decreases."
Step-by-step explanation:
When the music files are put into storage they take up space, this causes the storage space to decrease.
Minus 32a from both sides
17d=176-32a
divide both sides by 17
d=
Step-by-step explanation:
I am not fully sure what your teacher is aiming for. it friends very much on what you were just discussing in class (which I don't know).
but the first thing coming to mind is a minus sign ("-"). squaring a negative number removed the minus and makes the result equal to squaring the same positive number.
just for the undoing the 1/2 :
that is, because a fraction as exponent specifies in its denominator the root to be calculated for the basic value or expression.
so, 1/2 means square root. and yes, square is the inverse function of a square root, and it "undoes" the square root.
in exponent calculation it just means that for exponent 1 to the power of exponent 2 we simply multiply both exponents. and so, 1/2 × 2 = 1
FYI - the numerator still represents an original "to the power of" operation.
so, e.g. 3/2 would mean put the basis to the power of 3 and then do the square root of that result. or the other way around. these operations are commutative (the sequence does not matter).
My understanding is that when the power is a negative number, move it to the denominator and change it to positive.
In this case, the base is y, the power is -3
y^(-3)=1/(y^3)
The equivalent decimal is 61.(3)
