Answer:

12 m

Step-by-step explanation:

This can be solved using the Pythagorean theorem

a^2 = b^2 + c^2

20^2= 16^2 + c^2

400= 256 + c^2

400-256= c^2

144 = c^2

c = √144

c= 12

Lerok [7]

Answer: -3/2

Step-by-step explanation:

There are two methods to find the slope

METHOD 1. Rise/Run

Rise: the y-axis value

Run: the x-axis value

In the graph, rise/run=3/2

The line is going down, so it should be negative

-3/2

Hope this helps!! :)

Which exponential functions have been simplified correctly check all that apply
Fittoniya [83]
Principle: Law of Exponents - Combination of product to a power & power to a power. The first is when raising a product of two integers to a power, the power is distributed to each factor. In equation it is,

(xy)^a = (x^a)(y^a)

The latter is when raising the base with a power to a power, the base will remain the same and the powers will be multiplied. In equation it is, 
(x^a)(x^b) = x^ab

Check:


f(x) = 5*(16)^.33x = 5*(8*2)^0.33x = 5*(8^0.33x)(2^0.33x) = 5*(2^x)*(2^0.33x) = 5*(2^1.33x)

f(x) = 2.3*(8^0.5x) = 2.3*(4*2)^0.5x = 2.3*(2^x)(2^0.5x) = 2.3*(2^1.5x)

f(x) = 81^0.25x = 3^x

f(x) = 0.75*(9*3)^0.5x = 0.75*(3^x)*(3^0.5x) = 0.75*3^1.5x

f(x) = 24^0.33x = (8*3)^0.33x = (2^x)*(3^0.33x)


Therefore, the answer is third equation.

<em>ANSWER: f(x) = 81^0.25x = 3^x</em>
