Ahh yes, negative exponents always give us a scare once and a while. All the negative means is to flip the position of its base. For instance, if x has a negative exponent and x in the denominator, all you would have to do is move x to the numerator with the same power (except it's no longer negative). Before we substitute x and all the other variables which the values given, let's eliminate the negatives first.
After flipping positions/eliminating the negative exponents it should look like this:
which simplifies to
now that everything is simplified, and all negative exponents are eliminated we can substitute x with 2, and y with (-4).
which simplifies to
Final Answer: - \frac{1}{32} [/tex]
A. 8 cats per week. if you simplify 40/5, it equals 8/1
It would be an average of about 8.00 (7.99 to be somewhat exact). You get this by dividing the total amount by 200, the dividing that by 363.
Answer:
The correct option is C) 21.1 and 0.68
Step-by-step explanation:
Consider the provided information.
The mean composite score was 21.1 with a standard deviation of 4.8. The ACT composite score ranges from 1 to 36, with higher scores indicating greater achievement in high school.
Therefore μ = 21.1 and σ = 4.8
It is given that the sample of 50 students;
Thus, sample size ( n ) = 50
According to the central limit theorem,
Therefore
Hence, the correct option is C) 21.1 and 0.68
Option D. D has the matrix of constants [[12], [11], [4]].
Step-by-step explanation:
Step 1:
With the given equations, we can form matrices to represent them.
The coefficients of x, y, and z form a matrix of order 3 ×3, the variables x, y, and z form a matrix of order 1 ×3 and the constants form a matrix of order 1 ×3.
Step 2:
The linear system A is represented as
![\left[\begin{array}{ccc}12&1&1\\1&-11&0\\1&-1&4\end{array}\right]](https://tex.z-dn.net/?f=%5Cleft%5B%5Cbegin%7Barray%7D%7Bccc%7D12%261%261%5C%5C1%26-11%260%5C%5C1%26-1%264%5Cend%7Barray%7D%5Cright%5D)

.
Step 3:
The linear system B is represented as
![\left[\begin{array}{ccc}4&1&1\\1&-11&0\\1&-1&12\end{array}\right]](https://tex.z-dn.net/?f=%5Cleft%5B%5Cbegin%7Barray%7D%7Bccc%7D4%261%261%5C%5C1%26-11%260%5C%5C1%26-1%2612%5Cend%7Barray%7D%5Cright%5D)

Step 4:
The linear system C is represented as
![\left[\begin{array}{ccc}1&1&1\\1&-1&0\\1&-1&1\end{array}\right]](https://tex.z-dn.net/?f=%5Cleft%5B%5Cbegin%7Barray%7D%7Bccc%7D1%261%261%5C%5C1%26-1%260%5C%5C1%26-1%261%5Cend%7Barray%7D%5Cright%5D)

Step 5:
The linear system D is represented as
![= \left[\begin{array}{ccc}12\\11\\4\end{array}\right]](https://tex.z-dn.net/?f=%3D%20%5Cleft%5B%5Cbegin%7Barray%7D%7Bccc%7D12%5C%5C11%5C%5C4%5Cend%7Barray%7D%5Cright%5D)
.
Step 6:
Of the four options, the linear system D has the matrix of constants [[12], [11], [4]]. So the answer is option D. D.
