The base 16 is the same as 4*4.
From there, the rule is used to get
Afterward, the exponents are added getting 1/2+1/2 = 2/2 = 1. The rule is which only works if the bases are both the same.
Answer:
distance = 5 units
Step-by-step explanation:
In order to solve this problem we can start by plotting the two points you were provided with (see attached picture). This will help us visualize the problem better.
Now, we need to find the distance between those two points, so in order to do so we can use the distance formula:
in this case the x's and y's are given by the given points, since they are written as ordere pairs. And ordered pairs are written in the form (x,y). So for Point C:
C=(-1,4)
and for point D
D=(2.0)
so we can now use those values in our distance formula so we get:
d=5 units.
