Phantasy [73]2 years ago

Answer:  a = -2/3

Step-by-step explanation:

Let's start by multiplying both sides by x to simplify:

$4^{1/3} = x^a \times x$

$4^{1/3} = \underbrace{x \times x \times x \times \cdots \times x}_{a\ \textrm{times}} \times \,x$

$4^{1/3} = \underbrace{x \times x \times x \times \cdots \times x \times x}_{a+1\ \textrm{times}}$

4^{1/3} = x^{a+1}

Looking only at the exponents, it seems like 1/3 = a+1, so a = \boxed{-2/3}.

Luis can drive 3 times as fast as rico can ride his bike. If it takes rico 4 hours longer than Luis to travel 72 miles, how fast
beks73 [17]
<span>Let Rico's speed be S
Then Luis' is: 3S
</span>We then get: seventy-two over s equals seventy-two over three s plus four 
216=72+12s  Multiplying by LCD, 3S
216-72=12s
<span>144 = 12S
</span><span>S, or Rico's speed would be 144 over 12 or 12mph</span>
