the formula is y=mx+b

m is the slope

b is the y-intercept form

so the -1 is the y-intercept form. so you need to start at that point on the y axis. then the slope which is -1/2 comes into play. in my school we use rise/run. so from the point you marked at -1 you will go down 1 and to the right 2 points then where you stop is your next point (mark it) keep doing that. also go up the other way from the -1 point. go up 1 and to the left 2. then connect all of your points with a line. I hope this helped.

Simplify the following expression as much as you can use exponential properties. (6^-2)(3^-3)(3*6)^4

gtnhenbr [62]

Answer:

Simplifying the expression $(6^{-2})(3^{-3})(3*6)^4$ we get $\mathbf{108}$

Step-by-step explanation:

We need to simplify the expression $(6^{-2})(3^{-3})(3*6)^4$

Solving:

$(6^{-2})(3^{-3})(3*6)^4$

Applying exponent rule: $a^{-m}=\frac{1}{a^m}$

$=\frac{1}{(6^{2})}\frac{1}{(3^{3})}(18)^4\\=\frac{(18)^4}{6^{2}\:.\:3^{3}} \\$

Factors of $18=2\times 3\times 3=2\times3^2$

Factors of $6=2\times 3$

Replacing terms with factors

$=\frac{(2\times3^2)^4}{(2\times 3)^{2}\:.\:3^{3}} \\=\frac{(2)^4\times(3^2)^4}{(2)^2\times (3)^{2}\:.\:3^{3}} \\$

Using exponent rule: $(a^m)^n=a^{m\times n}$

$=\frac{(2)^4\times(3)^8}{(2)^2\times (3)^{2}\:.\:3^{3}} \\=\frac{2^4\times 3^8}{2^2\times 3^{2}\:.\:3^{3}}$

Using exponent rule: $a^m.a^n=a^{m+n}$

$=\frac{2^4\times 3^8}{2^2\times 3^{2+3}}\\=\frac{2^4\times 3^8}{2^2\times 3^{5}}$

Now using exponent rule: $\frac{a^m}{a^n}=a^{m-n}$

$=2^{4-2}\times 3^{8-5}\\=2^{2}\times 3^{3}\\=4\times 27\\=108$

So, simplifying the expression $(6^{-2})(3^{-3})(3*6)^4$ we get $\mathbf{108}$

Trudy bought 1 foot of fabric. If she cuts the fabric into 3-inch pieces, how many pieces will she have?

WINSTONCH [101]

Answer:

Trudy will have 4 pieces of the fabric.

Step-by-step explanation:

Since, 1 foot of the fabric = 12 inches

If Trudy cuts the fabric into pieces of 3 inch.

Number of pieces she will have = $\frac{\text{Total length of the fabric}}{\text{Length of one piece}}$

= $\frac{12}{3}$

= 4 pieces

Therefore, she will have 4 pieces of the fabric.

What does this equal?

myrzilka [38]

Answer:

x²y²+xy²+3+xy+2y²

Step-by-step explanation:

(2x²y²+x²y+xy²+3)-(x²y²+x²y²+x²y-xy-2y²)

1. remove the parentheses (when there’s - in front of an expression in parentheses change the sign of each term of the expression)

2x²y² + x²y + xy² + 3-x²y² - x²y² - x²y + xy - 2y²

2. eliminate the opposites

2x²y² + xy² + 3 -x²y² + xy +2y²

3. collect like terms

x²y² + xy² + 3 + xy + 2y²
