When we raise something to a power, it really justs means we are multiplying it by itself. 3^2 (3 to the power of 2) means that we are mutliplying 3 by itself: 3•3 = 9 or 3^2 = 9 (there are two 3's)
However, when we rasie something to the 0 power, it equals 1. That is because we are multiplying it by itself 0 times. We are not multiplying it by zero, we are effectively doing nothing at all. 3^0 = 1
9/12 is number 1. and Number 2 is 1/2 =4/8 and that is 1/2
Answer:
2.4
Step-by-step explanation:
The answer is B. Natural numbers are {1,2,3,4...} so basically positive. Intergers consist of 0 so it can range from -#s to +#s
First see you can factor out 4. What is left is x^2 + 6x - 16.
That can be factored as (x+8)(x-2) so the total factorization is
4(x+8)(x-2)
