Answer:

Add the exponents and keep the same base Then find the reciprocal and change the sign of the exponent .

Step-by-step explanation:

Given the expression  (2^3)(2^- 4), we will apply the law of indices below to solve the equation;

a^m \times a^n = a^{m+n}\\a^{-m} =\frac{1}{a^m}

Applying this on the given expression;

(2 ^ 3)(2 ^{-4})

Step 1: Add the exponents and keep the same base as shown;

= (2 ^ 3)(2 ^{-4})\\\\= 2^{3+(-4)}\\\\ = 2^{3-4}\\\\= 2^{-1}

Step 2: Find the reciprocal and change the sign of the exponent

= 2^{-1} \\= \frac{1}{2^1}\\= \frac{1}{2}

Find the mean, median, and mode of the data set. Round to the nearest tenth. 15, 13, 9, 9, 7, 1, 11, 10, 13, 1, 13 mean = 8.5, m
jasenka [17]

Answer:

Mean = 9.3

Median = 10

Mode = 13

Step-by-step explanation:

To get the mean, you would have to add up all of the numbers (102), then divide how many numbers you have with the numbers added up (9.3). To get the median, you would have to put all of the numbers that you have, in order, from least to greatest and cross off each number, one from each side before getting to the number in the middle (unless if you have an even number; works better with odd numbers, which is easier). To get the mode, you would need to find out which number appears the most, and, if there is more than one, you can put the numbers down. Hope this helps.

For the first system, we have

1 - 3x + 3y = -8

or

-3x + 3y = -9

The second equation, however, tells us

-3x + 3y = 13

but -9 ≠ 13, so this system has no solution.

For the second system, notice that multiplying both sides of

4x - 8y = 6

by 1/2 gives

2x - 4y = 3

which is identical to the other equation in the system. Then all point (x, y) that lie on this line are solutions to the system, meaning there are infinitely many solutions.
