When a number is raised to a power it is multiplied by itself so the number gets larger. Because the answer is a fraction, this means the power is a negative value.

Find the number 5 has to be raised to be 125 and then make is negative:

5 x 5 x 5 =125

The answer would be a = -3

Hey Guys!
zaharov [31]
<h3>Answer: D)  -3</h3>

Explanation:

Recall that y = f(x) since both are outputs of a function.

If k = 2, then f(x) = 2 leads to y = 2 being a horizontal line drawn through 2 on the y axis. This horizontal line only crosses the cubic curve at one spot. The same can be said if k = 0 and k = -2. So we can rule out choices A,B,C.

On the other hand, if k = -3, then f(x) = -3 has three different solutions. This is because the horizontal line through -3 on the y axis crosses the cubic at 3 different intersection points.

A2 = -8 and a5 = -512<br> Find a10
yawa3891 [41]

Answer:

The value of a₁₀ is -1352

Step-by-step explanation:

a₂ = -8

a₅ = -512

Now,

a₂ = -8 can be written as

a + d = -8 ...(1) and

a₅ = -512 can be written as

a + 4d = -512 ...(2)

Now, from equation (2) we get,

a + 4d = - 512

a + d + 3d = - 512

(-8) + 3d = - 512 (.°. <u>a + d = </u><u>-8</u><u>)</u>

3d = - 512 + 8

3d = - 504

d = - 504 ÷ 3

d = - 168

Now, for the value of a put the value of d = -168 in equation (1)

a + d = -8

a + (-168) = -8

a - 168 = -8

a = 168 - 8

a = 160

Now, For a₁₀

a₁₀ = a + 9d

a₁₀ = 160 + 9(-168)

a₁₀ = 160 - 1512

a₁₀ = -1352

Thus, The value of a₁₀ is -1352

Right angled triangle calc: find a, b=24, c=33.94113
Ksenya-84 [330]
Use the Pythagorean theorem...
a²+b²=c², in this case a²=c²-b<span>²</span>

a²+24²=33.94113<span>²

a</span><span>²+576=1,152.00031

a</span><span>²=576.000306

a=24    (If you need the exact number, not rounded, it is 24.0000064)</span>
