Solve for x and y <br> 8x-2y=24
TiliK225 [7]

Answer: For y it's y=4x−12 and for x it's x=12+y/4

Step-by-step explanation:

SOLVING FOR X

8x-2y=24

2(4x−y)=24

4x−y=24/2

4x−y=12

4x=12+y

x=12+y/4

SOLVING FOR Y

8x-2y=24

2(4x−y)=24

4x−y=24/2

4x−y=12

−y=12−4x

y=−12+4x

y=4x−12

Hope this helps, have a BLESSED AND WONDERFUL DAY! As well as a great Black History Month and Valentine's day! :-)

Which rational exponent represents a square root?<br> A. 1 / 2<br> B. 3/2<br> C. 1/3<br> D. 1/4
Fofino [41]

Answer:

1/2 rational exponent represents a square root.

Therefore, option A is correct.

Step-by-step explanation:

As we know that raising to the one-half power i.e. \frac{1}{2} is the same

as taking the square root.

  • so x^{\frac{1}{2}} is the same as the square root of x.

For example, taking the square root of 4 will determine:

4^{\frac{1}{2}}

\mathrm{Factor\:the\:number:\:}\:4=2^2

4^{\frac{1}{2}}=\left(2^2\right)^{\frac{1}{2}}

\mathrm{Apply\:exponent\:rule}:\quad \left(a^b\right)^c=a^{bc},\:\quad \:a\ge 0

\left(2^2\right)^{\frac{1}{2}}=2^{2\cdot \frac{1}{2}}

so the expression becomes

4^{\frac{1}{2}}=2^{2\cdot \:\frac{1}{2}}

    =2^1

    =2         ∵ \mathrm{Apply\:exponent\:rule}:\quad \:a^1=a

so, 1/2 rational exponent represents a square root.

Therefore, option A is correct.
