Natali [406]3 years ago

3 0

Step-by-step explanation:

This leads to another rule for exponents—the Power Rule for Exponents. To simplify a power of a power, you multiply the exponents, keeping the base the same. For example, (23)5 = 215. For any positive number x and integers a and b: (xa)b= xa· b.

Answer:

2^1

7. Factor the expression.<br> 42 - 64

Dmitriy789 [7]

Answer:

-22 = -2^1×11^1

Step-by-step explanation:

Factor the following integer:

-22

Hint: | Is 22 divisible by 2?

The last digit of 22 is 2, which means it is even. Therefore 22 is divisible by 2:

22 = 2 11:

-22 = -2×11

Hint: | Now try to factor 11. Is 11 divisible by 2?

11 is not divisible by 2 since 11 is odd and 2 is even:

-22 = -2×11 (11 is not divisible by 2)

Hint: | Is 11 divisible by 3?

The sum of the digits of 11 is 1 + 1 = 2, which is not divisible by 3. This means 11 is not divisible by 3:

-22 = -2×11 (11 is not divisible by 2 or 3)

Hint: | Is 11 divisible by 5?

The last digit of 11 is not 5 or 0, which means 11 is not divisible by 5:

-22 = -2×11 (11 is not divisible by 2, 3 or 5)

Hint: | Is 11 divisible by 7?

Divide 7 into 11:

| | 1 | (quotient)

7 | 1 | 1 |

- | | 7 |

| | 4 | (remainder)

11 is not divisible by 7:

-22 = -2×11 (11 is not divisible by 2, 3, 5 or 7)

Hint: | Is 11 prime?

No primes less than 11 divide into it. Therefore 11 is prime:

-22 = -2×11

Hint: | Express -22 as a product of prime powers.

There is 1 copy of 2 and 1 copy of 11 in the product:

Answer: -22 = -2^1×11^1

What is the equation of the quadratic graph with a focus of (1, 1) and a directrix of y = −1? PLs HELP!!

Delicious77 [7]

ANSWER
$f(x)= \frac{1}{4} {(x - 1)}^{2}$

EXPLANATION

Since the directrix is
$y = - 1$

the axis of symmetry of the parabola is parallel to the y-axis.

Again, the focus being,

$(1,1)$

also means that the parabola will open upwards.

The equation of parabola with such properties is given by,

${(x - h)}^{2} = 4p(y - k)$
where
$(h,k)$

is the vertex of the parabola.

The directrix and the axis of symmetry of the parabola will intersect at
$(1, - 1)$

The vertex is the midpoint of the focus and the point of intersection of the axis of the parabola and the directrix.

This implies that,
$h = \frac{1 + 1}{2} = 1$

and
$k = \frac{ - 1 + 1}{2} = 0$

The equation of the parabola now becomes,

$(x - 1) ^{2} = 4p(y - 0)$

$|p| = 1$

Thus, the distance between the vertex and the directrix.

This means that,

$p = - 1 \: or \: 1$

Since the parabola opens up, we choose
$p = 1$
Our equation now becomes,

${(x - 1)}^{2} = 4(1)(y - 0)$

This simplifies to
${(x - 1)}^{2} = 4y$

or

$y = \frac{1}{4} {(x - 1)}^{2}$

This is the same as,

$f(x)= \frac{1}{4} {(x - 1)}^{2}$

The correct answer is D .
