Answer:
1/ n^4
Step-by-step explanation:
n^-4
We know that a negative exponent in the numerator moves it to the denomintor
a^-b = 1/a^b
n^-4 = 1/ n^4
M= 2/7. I am not sure if it will put it in fraction form, but M=two sevenths.
Let's convert the word descriptions into mathematical equations first for illustration.
f(x) = x^2 - x - 12
g(x) = -2.5x - 2
Then, we equate g(x) and f(x). The final equation becomes
x^2 - x - 12 = -2.5x - 2
Then, we simplify by transposing and combining like terms.
x^2 - x + 2.5x -12 + 2 = 0
x^2 + 1.5x - 10 = 0
Since this is a quadratic equation, we find the roots by using the quadratic formula
where a = 1, b = 1.5 and c=-10
Thus, the answer is x = 2.5, -4.
