One nice thing about this situation is that you’ve been given everything in the same base. To review a little on the laws of exponents, when you have two exponents with the same base being:
– Multiplied: Add their exponents
– Divided: Subtract their exponents
We can see that in both the numerator and denominator we have exponents *multiplied* together, and the product in the numerator is being *divided* by the product in the detonator, so that translates to *summing the exponents on the top and bottom and then finding their difference*. Let’s throw away the twos for a moment and just focus on the exponents. We have
[11/2 + (-7) + (-5)] - [3 + 1/2 + (-10)]
For convenience’s sake, I’m going to turn 11/2 into the mixed number 5 1/2. Summing the terms in the first brackets gives us
5 1/2 + (-7) + (-5) = - 1 1/2 + (-5) = -6 1/2
And summing the terms in the second:
3 + 1/2 + (-10) = 3 1/2 + (-10) = -6 1/2
Putting those both into our first question gives us -6 1/2 - (-6 1/2), which is 0, since any number minus itself gives us 0.
Now we can bring the 2 back into the mix. The 0 we found is the exponent the 2 is being raised to, so our answer is
2^0, which is just 1.
Point-slope form of a line: we need a point (x₀,y₀) and the slope "m".
y-y₀=m(x-x₀)
slope intercept form :
y=m+b
m=slope
If the line is parallel to y=2/3 x-0, the line will have the same slope, therefore the slope will be: 2/3.
Data:
(8,4)
m=2/3
y-y₀=m(x-x₀)
y-4=2/3(x-8)
y-4=2/3 x-16/3
y=2/3 x-16/3+4
y=2/3 x-4/3 (slope intercept form)
Answer: The equation of the line would be: y=2/3 x-4/3.
if we have the next slope "m",then the perendicular slope will be:
m´=-1/m
We have this equation: y=2/3 x+0; the slope is: m=2/3.
The perpendicular slope will be: m`=-1/(2/3)=-3/2
And the equation of the perpendicular line to : y=2/3 x+0, given the point (8,4) will be:
y-y₀=m(x-x₀)
y-4=-3/2 (x-8)
y-4=-3/2 x+12
y=-3/2x + 12+4
y=-3/2x+16
answer: the perpendicular line to y=2/3 x+0 , given the point (8,4) will be:
y=-3/2 x+16
When you evaluate the function f (x) = 4 • 7 ^ x for x = -1 you get:
f (-1) = 4 * 7 ^ -1
f(-1) = 4* 1/7
f (-1) = 0.5714
The next part of the question is not clear. If it refers to the function at x = 2 then:
f (2) = 4 * 7 ^ (2)
f(2) =4*49
f (2) = 196
If it refers to it in x ^ 2
f (x ^ 2) = 4 * 7 ^ (x ^ 2)
Answer:
11. This is counting only odd numbers, or counting by two starting with one.
