Step-by-step explanation:
Applying rules of exponents to solve the given problems;
4^3 x 4^5 =
5^8 ÷ 5^-2 =
(6^3 ) ^ 4 =
For these problems, the applicable rules of exponents are;
aᵇ x aⁿ = aᵇ⁺ⁿ
aᵇ ÷ aⁿ = aᵇ⁻ⁿ
(aᵇ)ˣ = aᵇˣ
For the first problem; 4³ x 4⁵
aᵇ x aⁿ = aᵇ⁺ⁿ
4³ x 4⁵ = 4³⁺⁵ = 4⁸
Second problem: aᵇ ÷ aⁿ = aᵇ⁻ⁿ
5⁸ ÷ 5⁻² = 5⁸⁻⁽⁻²⁾ = 5⁸⁺² = 5¹⁰
Third problem; (aᵇ)ˣ = aᵇˣ
(6³)⁴ = 6³ˣ⁴ = 6¹²
Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
Each successive year, he
earned a 5% raise. It means that the salary is increasing in geometric progression. The formula for determining the nth term of a geometric progression is expressed as
Tn = ar^(n - 1)
Where
a represents the first term of the sequence(amount earned in the first year).
r represents the common ratio.
n represents the number of terms(years).
From the information given,
a = $32,000
r = 1 + 5/100 = 1.05
n = 20 years
The amount earned in his 20th year, T20 is
T20 = 32000 × 1.05^(20 - 1)
T20 = 32000 × 1.05^(19)
T20 = $80862.4
To determine the his total
earnings over the 20-year period, we would apply the formula for determining the sum of n terms, Sn of a geometric sequence which is expressed as
Sn = (ar^n - 1)/(r - 1)
Therefore, the sum of the first 20 terms, S20 is
S20 = (32000 × 1.05^(20) - 1)/1.05 - 1
S20 = (32000 × 1.653)/0.05
S20 = $1057920
Answer:
The correct option is A
Step-by-step explanation:
Since (1, 3) are the solutions to the function g(x), then
g(x) = (x – 1)(x – 3) = x² –3x – x + 3 = x² – 4x + 3
We know that f(x) is on the same plane and f(1) = 1.
Let's take g(1) = (1 – 1)(1 – 3) = 0
Therefore, when x = 1; f = 1 and g = 0. Hence
g(1) = f(1) – 1
In order words, g(x) could be f(x) – 1.
The correct option is A
