For this case we have:

By definition, one of the properties of the power, known as negative integer power, states that:

a ^{-b}can be written as\frac{1}{a ^ b}

Thus,  7 ^{-2} can be written as \frac{1}{7 ^ 2} . So:

\frac{1}{7 ^ 2}= \frac{1}{(7 * 7)}=\frac{1}{49}

Answer:

Power of negative integer exponent:

7^{-2} =\frac{1}{7 ^ 2}= \frac{1}{(7 * 7)}=\frac{1}{49}

The negative power means 1/the number to the given power

This means that 7^-2 can be rewritten as 1/(7^2)
7^2 = 7*7
Therefore:
1/(7^2) = 1/(7*7)
7*7 = 49
Therefore:
1/(7*7) = 1/49

Based on the above calculations:
7^-2 is equal to 1/49

Find the missing side lengths. Leave your answers as radicals in simplest form.
steposvetlana [31]

The length of missing sides x = 5 units and y = 5 units.

<h3>What is Trigonometric ratios?</h3><h3>The six trigonometric ratios are sine (sin), cosine (cos), tangent (tan), cotangent (cot), cosecant (cosec), and secant (sec).</h3>

In ΔABC,

AB (Base) = y  ,      BC(Hypotenuse) = 5\sqrt{2}   ,       CA (perpendicular) = x

and ∠ABC = 45^0

Now,

tan 45^0  = perp. / base

1 = x /y

x= y .................(i)

again,

sin 45^0 = perp. / Hypo.

\frac{1}{\sqrt{2} } = \frac{x}{5\sqrt{2} }

x = 5

put in equation (i), we get

y = 5

Thus, the length of missing side of the given triangle is x = 5 units and y =  5 units.

What is the value of x
Soloha48 [4]

Answer: The horizontal value in a pair of coordinates: how far along the point is. The X Coordinate is always written first in an ordered pair of coordinates (x,y), such as (12,5). In this example, the value "12" is the X Coordinate. Also called "Abscissa"

Step-by-step explanation: You didn't really give me more information to answer this but I still hope that this helped! :)

Express the following numbers as a product of their prime factors <br> 24<br> Please show working
Studentka2010 [4]

Answer:

2 x 2 x 2 x 3

Step-by-step explanation:

Find two numbers that multiply together to form 24:

2 x 12 = 24

Find two numbers that multiply together to form 12, a factor of 24. Replace 12 with these numbers:

2 x (2 x 6) = 2 x 12 = 24

Find two numbers that multiply together to form 6, a factor of 12. Replace 6 with these numbers:

2 x (2 x (2 x 3)) = 2 x (2x6) = 2 x 12 = 24

Two and three cannot be factored any further, therefore the prime factors of 24 are 2, 2, 2, and 3.
