Answer: The answer is 37

Step-by-step explanation:

Step 1: Use Negative Power Rule: x^-a=1/x^a. So 1/(1/5)^2+(1/2)^-3+(1/4)^-1

Step 2: Use Division Distributive Property: (x/y)^a=x^a/y^a. So 1/1/5^2+(1/2)^-3+(1/4)^-1

Step 3: Simplify 5^2 to 25. So 1/1/25+(1/2)^-3+(1/4)^-1

Step 4: Use Negative Power Rule: x^-a=1/x^a. So 1/1/25+1/(1/2)^3+(1/4)^-1

Step 5: Use Division Distributive Property: (x/y)^a=x^a/y^a. So 1/1/25+1/1/2^3+(1/4)^-1

Step 6: Simplify 2^3 to 8. So 1/1/25+1/1/8+(1/4)^-1

Step 7: Use Negative Power Rule: x^-a=1/x^a. So 1/1/25+1/1/8+1/1/4

Step 8: Invert and multiply. 25+1/1/8+1/1/4

Step 9: Invert and multiply. 25+8+1/1/4

Step 10: Invert and multiply. 25+8+4

Step 11: Simplify 25+8 to 33. So 33+4

Step 12: Simplify. So the answer is 37

F(x) = -x + 4 and g(x) = 6x + 3, find (f(x) - g(x))<br><br>A. -5x-1<br>B. 5x +1<br>C. -7x +1<br>

Pepsi [2]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

f(x) - g(x)

= - x + 4 - (6x + 3)

= - x + 4 - 6x - 3 ← collect like terms

= - 7x + 1 → C

I wanna know: [3,5]={3,4,5}? Why?

Agata [3.3K]

Answer:

Yes if [3,5] is a set of integers then it contains elements 3,4,5

As Closed bracket denotes that extreme points are also included and 4 is mid element in between 3 and 5

Given that tangent theta = negative 1, what is the value of secant theta, for StartFraction 3 pi Over 2 EndFraction less-than th

vivado [14]

The value of tangent theta is equal to the negative 1. At this value the value of secant theta is $\sqrt{2}$ .

<h3>What is tangent theta?</h3>

The tangent theta in a triangle is the ratio of sine theta and cos theta. It can be written as,

$\rm tan\theta=\dfrac{sin \theta}{cos \theta}$

Given information-

The value of tangent theta is equal to the negative 1.

$\tan \theta=-1$

The tangent theta in a triangle is the ratio of sine theta and cos theta. It can be written as,

$\rm tan\theta=\dfrac{sin \theta}{cos \theta}$

The value of tangent theta is equal to the negative 1. Thus put the value in above expression as,

$\rm -1=\dfrac{sin \theta}{cos \theta}\\$

Simplify it further as,

$\rm -cos \theta=sin \theta$

When the value of cosine and sine theta is equal, then the angle exist in 4th quadrant with the value of $\dfrac{7\pi}{4}$ . Which extent to the $\sqrt{2}/2$ for the cosine function.
