Find the value of a if the line joining the points (3a,4) and (a,-3) has a gradient of 1

1 answer:

6 0

Recall that the slope or gradient of a line segment through two points is the ratio of the change in the y coordinate to the change in the x coordinate.

If the gradient is 1, then

1 = (-3 - 4) / (a - 3a)

Solve for a :

1 = -7 / (-2a)

1 = 7/(2a)

2a = 7

a = 7/2

I dont understand this at all. I really need help!

Hello!

$\large\boxed{x^{4}}$

Recall that:

$\sqrt[z]{x^{y} }$ is equal to $x^{\frac{y}{z} }$ . Therefore:

$\sqrt[3]{x^{2} } = x^{\frac{2}{3} }$

There is also an exponent of '6' outside. According to exponential properties, when an exponent is within an exponent, you multiply them together. Therefore:

$(x^{\frac{2}{3} })^{6} = x^{\frac{2}{3}* 6 } = x^{\frac{12}{3} } = x^{4}$
