It's not specific enough to solve...so far it would only be f(3)
Answer: Choice B

======================================================
Explanation:
The two rules we use are


When applying the first rule to the expression your teacher gave you, we can say that:

Then applying the second rule lets us say

Therefore,

-------------
In short, we just multiplied each exponent inside by the outer exponent 1/2.
So that explains why the exponents go from {1/4,16} to {1/8,8} for x and y in that exact order.
You would add 10.3 and 5.9 which would equal 16.2, and subtract that from 20 and change that decimal into a fraction, which would be 19/50
Dividing fractions is basically the same thing as multiplying but by the reciprocal. I will give an example.
1/2 divided by 1/3
To solve this you do 1/2 multiplied by 3/1 so you switch the numerator and denominator.
x=3 1/4 is not a solution to the equation.
12 5/8=x+9 1/4 Subtract 9 1/4 from each side 3 3/8=x, but 3 1/4=3 2/8
