No, he needed to multiply 3 and –1 instead of creating a positive exponent in a fraction. No, his value of (negative 4) squared should be positive because an even exponent indicates a positive value.

Answer:

No, his value of (negative 4) squared should be positive because an even exponent indicates a positive value.

Step-by-step explanation:

The expression is not well written. The expression is written as;

(xy^-2)/(3x²y^-4)

According to indices;

a^m ÷ a^n = a^{m-n}

Applying this to solve the question

1/3(x^{1-2})/(y^-2÷y^-4)

= 1/3(x^{-1})(y^{-2+4})

= 1/3(1/x)y²

= 1/(3x) × y²

Substituting x = 3 and y = -4

= 1/3(1/3)×(-4)²

= 1/9(16)

= 16/9

Imothy solution is incorrect.

According to Imothy solution, his value of (negative 4) squared should be positive because an even exponent indicates a positive value.

which of the following is the equation of the line that passes though the point (-2,1) and has a slope of 4
Ierofanga [76]

An equation that goes through (-2, 1) and has a slope of 4 is y = 4x + 9.


You can find this by looking for the y-intercept (b) by using the slope (m), the point and slope intercept form. The work is below for you.


y = mx + b

1 = 4(-2) + b

1 = -8 + b

9 = b


Now we can use that and the slope to create the equation y = 4x + 9

Find the TWO integers whos product is -12 and whose sum is 1<br>​
Deffense [45]

Answer:

\rm Numbers = 4 \ and \ -3.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given :-

The sum of two numbers is 1 .

The product of the nos . is 12 .

And we need to find out the numbers. So let us take ,

First number be x

Second number be 1-x .

According to first condition :-

\rm\implies 1st \ number * 2nd \ number= -12\\\\\rm\implies x(1-x)=-12\\\\\rm\implies x - x^2=-12\\\\\rm\implies x^2-x-12=0\\\\\rm\implies x^2-4x+3x-12=0\\\\\rm\implies x(x-4)+3(x-4)=0\\\\\rm\implies (x-4)(x+3)=0\\\\\rm\implies\boxed{\red{\rm x = 4 , -3 }}

Hence the numbers are 4 and -3
