When dealing with radicals and exponents, one must realize that fractional exponents deals directly with radicals. In that sense, sqrt(x) = x^1/2
Now, how to go about doing this:
In a fractional exponent, the numerator represents the actual exponent of the number. So, for x^2/3, the x is being squared.
For the denominator, that deals with the radical. The index, to be exact. The index describes what KIND of radical (or root) is being taken: square, cube, fourth, fifth, and so on. So, for our example x^2/3, x is squared, and that quantity is under a cube root (or a radical with a 3). Here are some more examples to help you understand a bit more:
x^6/5 = Fifth root of x^6
x^3/1 = x^3
^^^Exponential fractions still follow the same rules of simplifying, so...
x^2/4 = x^1/2 = sqrt(x)
Hope this helps!
Answer:
Any line with slope 1/4 like y=1/4x -5.
Step-by-step explanation:
Parallel lines never cross and therefore have the same exact slope. Since slope intercept form is y=mx+b and m is slope, then y=1/4x+2 has a slope of 1/4. Any line with a slope of 1/4 will be parallel. Example: y=1/4x - 5
<u>Answer:</u>
6.5%
<u>Step-by-step explanation:</u>
We know that a man sold his house for $125,000 and received $116,875 after paying the broker his commission.
We need to find the percentage of the broker's commission.
Calculating this amount as the percentage of the total amount to find the broker's commission percentage.
6.5%
Between 8 and 9 is where you will find the square root of 80 as it equates to about 8.9.
