Answer:
when you multiply a whole number by itself it will obviously get bigger.
4 to the 2nd power equals 16 because 4x4 = 16
if you were to multiply a smaller number though, it wouldn't get as big.
Each number you put to the same exponent will not get bigger at the same rate since each number isnt being multiplied by the same thing.
ex. 4 and 6 are raised to the second power both dont get multiplied by the same number 4 is multiplied by 4, and 6 by 6, therefore the bigger the number the bigger it grows.
Fractions get smaller for this reason when you have the fraction 2/3 raised to the second, both numbers must be raised. 2 to the second equals 4 while 3 to the second is 9.
1/2 to the second would then equal 1/4 since 1 to the second equals 1 and 2 to the second equals 4.
Step-by-step explanation:
The answer is e because I look it up
74-17= 57 because if you subtract 10 from 74, it would be 64, then you need to subtract 7 from 64, which gives you 57.
9+7=16 because 10+7 would be 17, but since 9 is one less than 10, you need to subtract one from 17, which gives you 16.
17+(-30)=(-13) because adding 17 to -30 only brings up -30 to -13, and -30<-13.
-41+24=-17. Same reason as question 3, only different numbers.
-36+(-7)=-43 because adding two negatives together is like subtracting two positives from each other.
14+64=78 because adding 10 to 64 is 74 and 74+4=78.
-53-42=-95 because when you subtract a positive from a negative, it decreases the number even more.
-17-(-62)=45 because -62 is less than -17 and it is being subtracted from -17 so the answer becomes positive.
Hope this helps :)
