Answer:
Raising something to a negative exponent is just taking the reciprocal of the amount.
Step-by-step explanation:
Let's assume that you wanted to know what
is.
To find it, you would take the reciprocal of the x amount. So
becomes
.
This works because of the nature of exponents. Exponents represent the number of times you are multiplying a value by itself. So
would be equal to a · a · a. To increase the exponent, you increase the number of times the value is multiplied by itself: To increase
to
, you would have to multiply a with
two more times (a · a · a · a · a). To decrease the exponent, you must divide the value by itself. So to decrease
to
, you would have to divide
by a 3 times.
If the exponent is 0, the value is equal to 1. But you can still decrease the exponent into negative numbers. You just divide 1 by a the desired amount of times:
means that you are dividing 1 by a 3 times.
Hope this helps.
Change 48% to 0.48
0.48 x 18 = 8.64
rounded would be 9
Answer:
x=1
You solve for x by cross multyplying
Answer:
the way i put these numbers is the way the numbers go on the chart
15 25 25 65
10 5 20 35
25 30 45 100
Step-by-step explanation:
So here first you have to have same denominators to subtract and add.
to make same denominator you have to multiply something to them which meets up to their lowest common multiple (LCM). so here the easiest thing is multiply each denominator to the other but remember you have to multiply them to the numerator too.
3×9/5×9-2×5/9×5
so it becomes
27/45-10/45
17/45
as you cant bring to its simplest form since the answer in a prime no. leave it like that.
