Answer:

A=4

Step-by-step explanation:

you use the Pythagorean Theorem,

a triangle having a Leg b length of 3 and a Hypotenuse c length of 5 would have a Leg a length of 4.

Here is how I solved for Leg a using the Pythagorean Theorem.

Leg a = sqrt[ (Hypotenuse c)2 - (Leg b)2 ]

Leg a = sqrt[ (5)2 - (3)2 ]

Leg a = sqrt[ 25 - 9 ]

Leg a = sqrt[ 16 ]

Leg a = 4

Evaluate the exponential function ƒ(x) = (1/2)^x

kolezko [41]

For this case we have the following exponential function:
$f(x) = (\frac{1}{2})^x$
Evaluating the function for x = -1 we have:
$f(x)=(\frac{1}{2})^{-1}$
By power properties we can rewrite the function.
We have then:
$f(x)= \frac{1}{(\frac{1}{2})^1}$
$f(x)= \frac{1}{\frac{1}{2}}$
$f(x) = 2$
Answer:
The value that completes the table when x = -1 is:
$f(x) = 2$
