You are watching a game of poker on ESPN with your friends. You are trying to figure out the value of each colored chip that is

being played. Supposed 12 white, 9 red, 8 yellow, 4 blue, and 0 green chips can be exchanged for 2 white, 1 red, 0 yellow, 1 blue and 1 green chip. Also. supposed 1 green= N blue, 1 blue= N yellow, 1 yellow= N red, and 1 red= N white.
what is the whole number rate of exchange for these chips?

is only one exchange rate possible?​

Answer:

  N = 5; only one rate is possible

Step-by-step explanation:

The values of the sets of chips are ...

  12 +9N +8N^2 +4N^3

and

  2 +N +N^3 +N^4

We want to find N such that the difference in value is zero:

  N^4 -3N^3 -8N^2 -8N -10 = 0

A graphing calculator can show us the roots. There is only one positive real root to this equation: N = 5.

The exchange rate N is 5. Only one rate is possible.

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

I’m not sure if this is super accurate, but since P is prime, the only factors it has is 1 and itself, meaning that the square root of it will be irrational

PIT_PIT [208]

Answer:

p(t) = 0 for t = 1

p(t) = 1 for t = 1/8 = 8^-1

Step-by-step explanation:

the graph you will have to do yourself.

just go there and type in

-  log_{8}(x)

well, don't type "log" in letters.

you start by typing the "-" sign, and then you need to look up the functions by clicking on the "funcs" button and look for the log functions .

pick the

log_{a}

option. and then simply enter 8 as the first parameter in the {} brackets and x as the second in the () brackets.

and then you see.

any logarithm is 0 for x (or t) = 1.

because any a⁰ = 1.

and the logarithm gives you that exponent of the base number that leads to the given x value.

in other words : a logarithm is the inverse function of an exponential function.

the exponential function is

y = a^x

and the logarithm then determines

x =  log_{a}(y)

that is all.

and

-  log_{8}(x)  = 1

means that the logarithm itself delivered -1.

and 8^-1 = 1/8

so, p(t) = 1 for t = 1/8

Which expressions are equivalent to − 56 z + 28 −56z+28minus, 56, z, plus, 28? Choose 2 answers: Choose 2 answers: (Choice A) A
Dmitrij [34]

Answer:

(D)-2(28z-14) \: and\:\\(E) -7(8z-4)

Step-by-step explanation:

We are to determine which of these expressions are equivalent to: -56 z + 28

(A)\frac{1}{2}\cdot(-28z+14) \\(B)(-1.4z+0.7)40\\(C)(14-7z)\cdot(-4)\\(D)(8z-4)(-7)\\(E)-2(-28z-14)

-56 z + 28

  • If we factor out -2

-56 z + 28=-2(\frac{ -56 z}{-2} + \frac{28}{-2})=-2(28z-14)

  • If we factor out -7

-56 z + 28=-7(\frac{ -56 z}{-7} + \frac{28}{-7})=-7(8z-4)

Therefore, the two equivalent expressions are:

-2(28z-14) \: and\: -7(8z-4)
