Answer:7
Step-by-step explanation:
Answer:
After simplifying, the exponent of x is 33 and the exponent of y is 0
Step-by-step explanation:
For us to simplify, we bring the x base together and the y base together
Recall from the law of indices;
x^a/x^b = x^(a-b)
and x^a * x^b = x^(a + b)
We shall be applying these here
Let us bring the x terms together
we have these as;
x^8/x^14 * 1/x^-39 = x^( 8 - 14 -(-39))
= x^(8 + 39-14) = x^33
for y, we have it that;
y^-26/y^-5 * 1/y^-21
= y^(-26 -(-5) - (-21)
= y^-26 + 5 + 21 = y^0
Answer:
A. 2^11
Step-by-step explanation:
(They are basically asking what's 2^4 × 2^7, but with more words.)
I usually do each exponent individually:
2^4 is the same as 2 × 2 × 2 × 2 = 16 (or you could have read the text to figure that out)
2^7 is the same as 2 × 2 × 2 × 2 × 2 × 2 × 2 = 128
Then just multiply 128 and 16 to get 2,048, and see which option also gives you 2,048.
BUT, you can also:
(Combine the exponents together to get your answer. Just remember that if it's multiplication you add them, and if it's division you subtract them.)
2^4 × 2^7
4 + 7 = 11
2^11 (This equals 2,048 btw. You don't even have to check all the options to get the answer).
Hope this helps friend :)
The last part I learned from another user, while answering one of your other questions. I personally find this mind blowing, lol.
