Answer:

x = -4

Step-by-step explanation:

16 = 4*4 = 4²

64 = 4 * 4* 4 = 4³

$(\dfrac{1}{16})^{3x}=64^{2*(x+8)}\\\\\\(16^{-1})^{3x}=64^{2x + 16}\\\\\\16^{-3x}=64^{2x +16}\\\\(4^{2})^{-3x}=(4^{3})^{2x+16}\\\\4^{-6x}=4^{6x +48}$

As bases are same, compare exponents

6x + 48 = -6x

Subtract 48 from both sides

6x = -6x - 48

Add '6x' to both sides

6x + 6x = -48

12x = -48

Divide both sides by 12

x = -48/12

x = -4

If two similar triangles have side lengths 3cm and 7cm then we can determine that the scale factor for the lengths is: 7/3

Now, we have to work out the area scale factor !

This is simple, since area is given in cm² then all we have to do is square our original scale factor!

So,

7/3² = 49/9

So, we can say that the ratio of the area would be:

x : 49/9x

Simplify (square root 2)( square root of 2^3)

steposvetlana [31]

Answer:

$\large\boxed{(\sqrt2)(\sqrt{2^3})=4}$

Step-by-step explanation:

$(\sqrt2)(\sqrt{2^3})\qquad\text{use}\ \sqrt{ab}=\sqrt{a}\cdot\sqrt{b}\\\\=\sqrt{2\cdot2^3}\qquad\text{use}\ a^n\cdot a^m=a^{n+m}\\\\=\sqrt{2^{1+3}}=\sqrt{2^4}\\\\(1)=\sqrt{2^{2\cdot2}}\qquad\text{use}\ (a^n)^m=a^{nm}\\\\=\sqrt{(2^2)^2}\qquad\text{use}\ \sqrt{a^2}=a\ \text{for}\ a\geq0\\\\=2^2=4\\\\(2)=\sqrt{2\cdot2\cdot2\cdot2}=\sqrt{16}=6\ \text{because}\ 4^2=16$
