  • Exponential Rule [Powering]:                                                                           \displaystyle (b^m)^n = b^{m \cdot n}
  • Exponential Rule [Rewrite]:                                                                              \displaystyle b^{-m} = \frac{1}{b^m}<u> </u>

Step-by-step explanation:

<u>Step 2: Solve for </u><em><u>x</u></em>

  1. Rewrite:                                                                                                             \displaystyle \bigg( \frac{1}{2^2} \bigg)^{x + 1} = 2^5
  2. Exponential Rule [Rewrite]:                                                                              \displaystyle (2^{-2})^{x + 1} = 2^5
  3. Exponential Rule [Powering]:                                                                          \displaystyle 2^{-2(x + 1)} = 2^5
  4. Set:                                                                                                                    \displaystyle -2(x + 1)} = 5
  5. [Division Property of Equality] Divide -2 on both sides:                                \displaystyle x + 1 = \frac{-5}{2}
  6. [Subtraction Property of Equality] Subtract -1 on both sides:                        \displaystyle x = \frac{-7}{2}

Kirby is four miles from the train station, from which a train is due to leave in 56 minutes. Kirby is walking along at 3 mph, a
Luda [366]
Let's assume that Kirby walks with a speed 
v_1 = 3 mph
for a time t_1, and that he runs with a speed
v_2 = 12 mph
for a time t_2.

The total time available for Kirby to catch the train is:
t=56 min = 0.93 h
and this must be equal to the sum of the two times t1 and t2:
0.93 = t_1 + t_2 

The distance Kirby should cover is
S=4 m
and this should be equal to the sum of the distances covered by walking and by running:
4 = S_1 + S_2 = v_1 t_1 + v_2 t_2 = 3 t_1 + 12 t_2

So we have a system of 2 equations:
0.93 = t_1 + t_2
4 = 3 t_1 + 12 t_2

If we solve the system, we find:
t_1 = 0.80 h = 48 min
t_2 = 0.13 h = 8 min

So, Kirby needs to run at least for 8 minutes in order to catch the train.

Mila [183]

Answer:

15.6=c

Step-by-step explanation:

(12)^2+(10)^2=c^2

144+100=c^2

244=c^2

square root of both sides=244= square root c^2

15.620499=c

15.6=c

Triangle A″B″C″ is formed using the translation (x + 1, y + 1) and the dilation by a scale factor of 3 from the origin. Which eq
FromTheMoon [43]

Answer:

B''C''=3BC

Step-by-step explanation:

we know that

The length of segment B''C'' is equal to the length of segment BC multiplied by the scale factor

step 1

Find the length of segment BC

the formula to calculate the distance between two points is equal to

d=\sqrt{(y2-y1)^{2}+(x2-x1)^{2}}

we have the points

B(1,-3),C(-3,-3)

substitute the values

BC=\sqrt{(-3+3)^{2}+(-3-1)^{2}}

BC=\sqrt{(0)^{2}+(-4)^{2}}

BC=4\ units

The segment B''C'' is equal to the segment BC multiplied by the scale factor

The scale factor is 3

so

B''C''=BC(3)

B''C''=3BC

substitute

B''C''=3(4)=12\ units
