Answer:

8 C sometimes

9 64x^8 y^11

10 c 1.28r^2/ t^9

Step-by-step explanation:

Algebraic Operations

Some basic rules must be fresh in our minds when trying to simplify complex algebraic expressions. For example, the power rule respect to the product or quotient:

$\displaystyle \left(\frac{x^n.y^m}{z^p}\right)^q= \frac{x^{qn}.y^{qm}}{z^{qp}}$

$\displaystyle \frac{x^n.x^q}{x^p}= x^{n+q-p}$

$\displaystyle x^{-n}=\frac{1}{x^n}$

Let's face the questions at hand

8. A number is raised to a negative exponent is negative?

Following the expressions recalled above, let's pick the expression

$\displaystyle 3^{-2}=\frac{1}{3^2}=\frac{1}{9}$

This is a negative power resulting in a positive number

Now we pick

$\displaystyle (-2)^{-3}=\frac{1}{(-2)^3}=-\frac{1}{8}$

This time, the negative power leads to a negative result, so it doesn't matter the sign of exponent to determine the sign of the result

Answer: C sometimes

9 simplify(4xy^2)^3(xy)^5

$(4xy^2)^3(xy)^5=4^3x^3(y^2)^3x^5y^5$

$=64x^3y^6x^5y^5$

$=64x^8y^{11}$

10 simplify(2t^-3)^3(0.4r)^2

$(2t^{-3})^3(0.4r)^2=2^3(t^{-3})^30.4^2r^2$

$=8t^{-9} 0.16 r^2$

$=1.28t^{-9} r^2$

$\displaystyle \frac{1.28 r^2}{t^9}$

Algebra 1 Please help! thank u sm

Answer:

1. Slyvia is wrong. You treat the numbers normally when dividing the left side, so 3.61/4.1 = .88. When dividing the exponents, you subtract the numerator from the denominator, so -11-7 = -18. So, you do have .88 * 10^-18, at first, but when you are working in scientific notation you want the decimal to be greater than so, which requires us to add an additional -1, to make it 8.8 instead of 0.88. This is because we want to move the decimal place left one more time. This results in our final answer being 8.8 * 10^-19, which is not Slyvia's answer.

2. Dylan's answer is correct. He subtracted the exponents correctly, then moved the decimal place over one place towards the left.

3. Ethan is wrong. He added the exponents, instead of subtracting. However, you cannot do this, because when you are dividing exponents, you must subtract.

Step-by-step explanation:

I have this acronym I learned called MADSPM, which has helped me a lot. I never learned it in Algebra, but I wish that they had taught it. Each letter corresponds with an exponent rule. If this makes sense, here is what it stands for:

When you multiply, you add.

When you divide, you subtract.

When there are parentheses, you multiply.

In this case, it was solely division. So, you just need to remember division = subtraction, when it comes to exponents.

Hopefully this helped. If you need me to explain it better, please let me know, and I will try. Thanks much & have a wonderful day!
