Answer: Product of powers
---
The product of powers rules basically says that two powers, let's call them

and

, with the same base (a) multiplied together equals

.
In your problem you can see that

and

are being multiplied together and the exponents are being added, which is what the "product of powers" law says.
Each term in this pattern is created by adding consecutive multiples of 2 to the previous term.

You can write the formula for this pattern as:

The next number is

.
The answer is 33.
Answer:
3. 7/12.
4. 7/5.
5. 1.
Step-by-step explanation:
The slope of a line can be obtained by taking the ratio of change in y-coordinate to that of x-coordinate. Mathematically, it is expressed as:
Slope = Δy /Δx
Δy = y2 – y1
Δx = x2 – x1
With the above formula in mind, let us answer the questions given above.
3. Point => (–8, –2) (4, 5)
x1 = –8
x2 = 4
Δx = x2 – x1
Δx = 4 – –8
Δx = 4 + 8
Δx = 12
y1 = –2
y2 = 5
Δy = y2 – y1
Δy = 5 – – 2
Δy = 5 + 2
Δy = 7
Slope = Δy /Δx
Slope = 7/12
4. Point => (3, –5) (8, 2)
x1 = 3
x2 = 8
Δx = 8 – 3
Δx = 5
y1 = –5
y2 = 2
Δy = y2 – y1
Δy = 2 – – 5
Δy = 2 + 5
Δy = 7
Slope = Δy /Δx
Slope = 7/5
5. Point => (–4, –5) (4, 3)
x1 = –4
x2 = 4
Δx = x2 – x1
Δx = 4 – –4
Δx = 4 + 4
Δx = 8
y1 = –5
y2 = 3
Δy = y2 – y1
Δy = 3 – – 5
Δy = 3 + 5
Δy = 8
Slope = Δy /Δx
Slope = 8/8
Slope = 1
Answer: The slope is 12 pounds per day.
Step-by-step explanation:
They consumed 60 pounds on food in 5 days.
The slope or rate at which they consummed the in a day can be calculated as the amount of pounds consumed in the lapse of time, this is:
slope = 60pounds/5days = 12 pounds per day.
