The graphs of y =1/x and y = 3/x – 4 can be compared by saying that c<span>ompared to the graph of y =1/x , the graph of y =3/x – 4 is a vertical stretch by a factor of 3 and a translation of 4 units down. This can be seen clearly when you graph the functions on a x-y coordinate plane.</span>

Answer: Choice A</h3>
![x^2\left(\sqrt[4]{x^2}\right)](https://tex.z-dn.net/?f=x%5E2%5Cleft%28%5Csqrt%5B4%5D%7Bx%5E2%7D%5Cright%29)
=====================================================
Explanation:
The fourth root of x is the same as x^(1/4)
I.e,
![\sqrt[4]{x} = x^{1/4}](https://tex.z-dn.net/?f=%5Csqrt%5B4%5D%7Bx%7D%20%3D%20x%5E%7B1%2F4%7D)
The same applies to x^10 as well
![\sqrt[4]{x^{10}} = \left(x^{10}\right)^{1/4}](https://tex.z-dn.net/?f=%5Csqrt%5B4%5D%7Bx%5E%7B10%7D%7D%20%3D%20%5Cleft%28x%5E%7B10%7D%5Cright%29%5E%7B1%2F4%7D)
Multiply the exponents 10 and 1/4 to get 10/4
![\sqrt[4]{x^{10}} = \left(x^{10}\right)^{1/4} = x^{10*1/4} = x^{10/4}](https://tex.z-dn.net/?f=%5Csqrt%5B4%5D%7Bx%5E%7B10%7D%7D%20%3D%20%5Cleft%28x%5E%7B10%7D%5Cright%29%5E%7B1%2F4%7D%20%3D%20x%5E%7B10%2A1%2F4%7D%20%3D%20x%5E%7B10%2F4%7D)
![\sqrt[4]{x^{10}} = x^{10/4}](https://tex.z-dn.net/?f=%5Csqrt%5B4%5D%7Bx%5E%7B10%7D%7D%20%3D%20x%5E%7B10%2F4%7D)
-----------------------
If we have an expression in the form x^(m/n), with m > n, then we can simplify it into an equivalent form as shown below
![x^{m/n} = x^a\sqrt[n]{x^b}](https://tex.z-dn.net/?f=x%5E%7Bm%2Fn%7D%20%3D%20x%5Ea%5Csqrt%5Bn%5D%7Bx%5Eb%7D)
The 'a' and 'b' are found through dividing m/n
m/n = a remainder b
'a' is the quotient, b is the remainder
-----------------------
The general formula can easily be confusing, so let's replace m and n with the proper numbers. In this case, m = 10 and n = 4
m/n = 10/4 = 2 remainder 2
We have a = 2 and b = 2
So
![x^{m/n} = x^a\sqrt[n]{x^b}](https://tex.z-dn.net/?f=x%5E%7Bm%2Fn%7D%20%3D%20x%5Ea%5Csqrt%5Bn%5D%7Bx%5Eb%7D)
turns into
![x^{10/4} = x^2\sqrt[4]{x^2}](https://tex.z-dn.net/?f=x%5E%7B10%2F4%7D%20%3D%20x%5E2%5Csqrt%5B4%5D%7Bx%5E2%7D)
which means
![\sqrt[4]{x^{10}} = {x^2} \sqrt[4]{x^2}](https://tex.z-dn.net/?f=%5Csqrt%5B4%5D%7Bx%5E%7B10%7D%7D%20%3D%20%7Bx%5E2%7D%20%5Csqrt%5B4%5D%7Bx%5E2%7D)
Answer:
6.14125(0.15) = 0.9211875 (below 1)
6.14125 - 0.92118 = 5.22007
Step-by-step explanation:
Given data
1. 10(.15)=1.5
2. 10-1.5=8.5
3. 8.5 (.15)=1.275
4. 8.5-1.275=7.225
continuation the sequence
5) 7.225 (0.15) = 1.08375
6) 7.225 - 1.08375 = 6.14125
7) <u> 6.14125(0.15) = 0.9211875 (below -one)</u>
8 ) <u> 6.14125 - 0.9211875 = 5.2200625 (get number 5)</u>
9) 5.2200625(0.15) = 0.783009
10) 5.2200625 - 0.783009 = 4.4370532
I believe the answer is D.
Then you are able to substitute in X and it can have a infinite number of values catered to the question.
