Answer:This law of exponents can only be used when the bases are equal.
Step-by-step. explanation:
The 8 is in the tenths place it would look like 8/10 .8 its .08 for 8/100
Both problems give you a function in the second column and the x-values. To find out the values of a through f, you need to plug in those x-values into the function and simplify!
You need to know three exponent rules to simplify these expressions:
1)
The
negative exponent rule says that when a
base has a negative exponent, flip the base onto the other side of the
fraction to make it into a positive exponent. For example,

.
2)
Raising a fraction to a power is the same as separately raising the numerator and denominator to that power. For example,

.
3) The
zero exponent rule<span> says that any number
raised to zero is 1. For example,

.
</span>
Back to the Problem:
Problem 1
The x-values are in the left column. The title of the right column tells you that the function is

. The x-values are:
<span>
1) x = 0</span>Plug this into

to find letter a:

<span>
2) x = 2</span>Plug this into

to find letter b:

<span>
3) x = 4</span>Plug this into

to find letter c:

<span>
Problem 2
</span>The x-values are in the left column. The title of the right column tells you that the function is

. The x-values are:
<span>
1) x = 0</span>Plug this into

to find letter d:

<span>
2) x = 2
</span>Plug this into

to find letter e:

<span>
3) x = 4
</span>Plug this into

to find letter f:

<span>

Answer:
(13 + or - (sign) square root(37)) / 6
Step-by-step explanation:
First search up the quadratic formula which is
x = (- b + or - square root(b^2 - 4ac)) / 2a
and to find a, b, and c you need this formula
ax^2 + bx + c = 0 (btw this is the safest solution to finding your answer with a number in-front of a quadratic equation.)
Math:
a = 3, b = -13, c = 11
b = -13, because of the x on the other end of the equation as the equation above "ax^2 + bx + c = 0" you need the zero to proceed to this next step.
Side Note: You only take the number and not the variable, variables are x, y, w, z, or etc.
(- (- 13) + or - square root((-13)^2 - 4(3)(11) ) ) / 2 * 3
13 + or - square root(37) / 6
