Rewrite using a single positive exponent

Mathematics
1 answer:
Korolek [52]2 years ago

Answer:

9³

Step-by-step explanation:

We need to find the value of \dfrac{9^5}{9^2}.

We know that,

\dfrac{x^a}{x^b}=x^{a-b}

Here, a = 5 and b = 2.

So,

\dfrac{9^5}{9^2}=9^{5-2}\\\\=9^3

So, the answer to the given expression is 9³.

Consider the equation below. (If an answer does not exist, enter DNE.) f(x) = x4 ln(x) (a) Find the interval on which f is incre
Ainat [17]

Answer: (a) Interval where f is increasing: (0.78,+∞);

Interval where f is decreasing: (0,0.78);

(b) Local minimum: (0.78, - 0.09)

(c) Inflection point: (0.56,-0.06)

Interval concave up: (0.56,+∞)

Interval concave down: (0,0.56)

Step-by-step explanation:

(a) To determine the interval where function f is increasing or decreasing, first derive the function:

f'(x) = \frac{d}{dx}[x^{4}ln(x)]

Using the product rule of derivative, which is: [u(x).v(x)]' = u'(x)v(x) + u(x).v'(x),

you have:

f'(x) = 4x^{3}ln(x) + x_{4}.\frac{1}{x}

f'(x) = 4x^{3}ln(x) + x^{3}

f'(x) = x^{3}[4ln(x) + 1]

Now, find the critical points: f'(x) = 0

x^{3}[4ln(x) + 1] = 0

x^{3} = 0

x = 0

and

4ln(x) + 1 = 0

ln(x) = \frac{-1}{4}

x = e^{\frac{-1}{4} }

x = 0.78

To determine the interval where f(x) is positive (increasing) or negative (decreasing), evaluate the function at each interval:

interval                 x-value                      f'(x)                       result

0<x<0.78                 0.5                 f'(0.5) = -0.22            decreasing

x>0.78                       1                         f'(1) = 1                  increasing

With the table, it can be concluded that in the interval (0,0.78) the function is decreasing while in the interval (0.78, +∞), f is increasing.

Note: As it is a natural logarithm function, there are no negative x-values.

(b) A extremum point (maximum or minimum) is found where f is defined and f' changes signs. In this case:

  • Between 0 and 0.78, the function decreases and at point and it is defined at point 0.78;
  • After 0.78, it increase (has a change of sign) and f is also defined;

Then, x=0.78 is a point of minimum and its y-value is:

f(x) = x^{4}ln(x)

f(0.78) = 0.78^{4}ln(0.78)

f(0.78) = - 0.092

The point of <u>minimum</u> is (0.78, - 0.092)

(c) To determine the inflection point (IP), calculate the second derivative of the function and solve for x:

f"(x) = \frac{d^{2}}{dx^{2}} [x^{3}[4ln(x) + 1]]

f"(x) = 3x^{2}[4ln(x) + 1] + 4x^{2}

f"(x) = x^{2}[12ln(x) + 7]

x^{2}[12ln(x) + 7] = 0

x^{2} = 0\\x = 0

and

12ln(x) + 7 = 0\\ln(x) = \frac{-7}{12} \\x = e^{\frac{-7}{12} }\\x = 0.56

Substituing x in the function:

f(x) = x^{4}ln(x)

f(0.56) = 0.56^{4} ln(0.56)

f(0.56) = - 0.06

The <u>inflection point</u> will be: (0.56, - 0.06)

In a function, the concave is down when f"(x) < 0 and up when f"(x) > 0, adn knowing that the critical points for that derivative are 0 and 0.56:

f"(x) =  x^{2}[12ln(x) + 7]

f"(0.1) = 0.1^{2}[12ln(0.1)+7]

f"(0.1) = - 0.21, i.e. <u>Concave</u> is <u>DOWN.</u>

f"(0.7) = 0.7^{2}[12ln(0.7)+7]

f"(0.7) = + 1.33, i.e. <u>Concave</u> is <u>UP.</u>

Show that triangle MPT =Triangle MTP​
exis [7]

Unusual notation.  I won't fuss with it.

a. We have isosceles PRT, so angle  RPT = angle RTP.

By the definition of angle bisector, angle MTP = angle MTF, and angle MPT = angle MPU.

We have m angle RTP = m angle MTF + m angle MTP = 2 m angle MTP

Similarly, m angle RPT = 2 m angle MPT

2 m angle MTP = 2 m angle MPT

angle MPT = angle MPT

That's the first part.

b. That makes MPT isosceles.

c. 2x+124=180

2x = 56

x = 28 degrees

MTP = 28 degrees

d.  We have angle RPT=angle RTP=56 so PRT=180-2(56)=68 degrees

PUT = 180 - UTP - UPT = 180 - 28 - 56 = 96 degrees

Bad drawing, PUT looks acute.

angle PRT = 68 degrees, angle PUT = 96 degrees

I’m stuck on this question please help
Komok [63]
Take the price of pears (£1.30 per kilogram) and multiply it by the amount of pears (7kg). You get 9.1 so now you take the total amount spent (£12.70) and subtract the 9.1 and you get 3.6 now that is the amount you spent on the apples. So take 3.6 and divide it by the amount of apples you got (2kg) you will get 1.8 and that is your overall answer.

Answer:

y = 100°

Step-by-step explanation:

x = 40° (vertical angles are congruent)

y is an exterior angel of a triangle that has two opposite internal angles, x (40°) and 60°.

According to the exterior angle of a triangle, thus:

y = 40 + 60

y = 100°
