Could someone help me? Why does x^4 * x^-4 = 1?

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

when you have a negative exponent, you are going to have a fraction. Example: 2^4 * 2^-4= 2^4 is 16 2^-4 is 1/16.

You get the 16 but because it was a negative exponent, the 16 goes on the bottom. 16 as a fraction is 16/1.

When you multiply 16/1 and 1/16. It comes up to 16/16 or 1.

Does this help?

Answer:

below

Step-by-step explanation:

We can use the product rule of exponents to solve [ x^y * x^z = x^y+z ].

x^4 * x^-4 = 1

x^4+(-4) = 1

x^0 = 1

1 = 1

Best of Luck!

Answer:

The y-coordinate of F is 8.

Step-by-step explanation:

The area of the large triangle = 1/2 * base * height.

From the given coordinates:

The base of the large triangle =  x coordinate of C - x coordinate of A

= 11 - 3 = 8 units.

It's height = y coordinate of A = 12, so

Area of large triangle = 1/2 * 8 * 12 = 48 unit^2.

Using a similar calculation for the small triangle:

Base = 10 - 6 = 4 and height = k units.

So it's area = 1/2 * 4 * k = 2k unit^2.

So from given area of the shaded part:

48 - 2k = 32

-2k = -16

k = 8.
