Why does the base matter when simplifying negative exponents?

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

A negative exponent just means that the base is on the wrong side of the fraction line, so you need to flip the base to the other side. For instance, "x–2" (pronounced as "ecks to the minus two") just means "x2, but underneath, as in 1 x 2 \frac{1}{x^2} x21 ".

Harvey flew south 300 miles. He changed planes and then flew east 500 miles. If he travels a straight path back home, how many miles will he fly? Round to the nearest mile.

Answers

Answer:

583 miles

Step-by-step explanation:

Let's draw this out (see attachment).

The straight line path creates the hypotenuse of a right triangle with legs of lengths 300 and 500. So, we use the Pythagorean Theorem, which states that for a right triangle with legs a and b and hypotenuse c:

a² + b² = c²

Here, a = 300 and b = 500. Then:

300² + 500² = c²

90000 + 250000 = c²

340000 = c²

c = √340000 ≈ 583.1 ≈ 583 mi

Thus, the answer is 583 miles.

is 976. find the number.

Answers

Answer:

awd

Step-by-step explanation:

The given conditions can be satisfied by the numbers 16 and 61.

What is place value?

The foundation of our entire number system is place value. In this approach, the value of a digit in a number is determined by where it appears in the number.

Given, The sum of the digits of two numbers is 7. The product the number and its reverse number are formed by Interchanging the digits is 976.

Let "xy" be the given two-digit number.

Thus,

x +y =7....(1)

and (10x+y)(10y + x) = 976

100xy + 10y² + 10x² + xy = 976

101xy + 10y² + 10x² = 976

From equation 1

707x - 101x² + 490 +10x² - 140x + 10x² = 976

-81x² + 567x = 486

x² - 7x + 6 = 0

Thus x = 1, 6

y = 6,1

Therefore, The number that satisfies the given conditions is 16 or 61.

The graph of the system of equations solves the equation  [tex]\frac{1}{2}[/tex] x - 4 = -2x + 1 ⇒ D

Step-by-step explanation:

Let us revise some important notes about the slope and y-intercept of a line

The form of the linear equation is y = m x + b, where m is the slope and b is the y-intercept

If the line has a positive slope then its direction will be to the rightIf the line has a negative slope then its direction will be to the left

The y-intercept (0, b) is the the point of intersection between the line and the y-axis

If the line cuts the y-axis at a point above the x-axis, then b is positiveIf the line cuts the y-axis at a point down the x-axis, then b is negative

To solve our question without any calculation, let us find the direction of the slopes and their y-intercepts

∵ The direction of the blue line is to the left

→ That means m in the equation is negative

∴ Its slope is negative

∵ The line intersects the y-axis at point (0, 1)

→ That means b in the equation = 1

∴ The number in the equation is 2

→ Look at the answer we have only one answers have negative slope and

   y-intercept = 1 in the right hand side ⇒ D

∴ The equation of the blue line is represented by the left side -2x + 1

→ That means the equation of the red line is represented by the left side

∵ The direction of the red line is to the right

→ That means m in the equation is positive

∴ Its slope is positive

∵ The line intersects the y-axis at point (0, -4)

→ That means b in the equation = -4

∴ The number in the equation is -4

→ Only D has a positive slope and y-intercept = -4 in the left side

∴ The equation of the red line is represented by [tex]\frac{1}{2}[/tex] x - 4

The graph of the system of equations solves the equation  [tex]\frac{1}{2}[/tex] x - 4 = -2x + 1

Another way:

You can solve each equation to find the value of x, then substitute it in one side of the equation to find y , the values of x and y must be (2, -3) as the point of intersection of the two lines in the graph

Frank and Jasmine use the same trail for their Saturday walk. Frank walks at an average pace of 2 miles per hour. Jasmine starts when Frank is at the 3 mile marker and walks at an average pace of 4 miles per hour. Write an algebraic equation that could be used to determine how many hours Jasmine will walk before she catches up to Frank.

Answers

Answer:

Jasmine will walk 1hr:30min before she catches up to Frank

Step-by-step explanation:

let the distance of the trail be x

and let the time be t

given that franks average speed is 2 miles per hour

the distance covered by Frank is x-3

the time taken by Frank to cover the distance is

we know that speed=distance/time

2=x-3/t

2t=x-3  

x=2t+3---------1

Jasmine speed= 4 miles per hour

speed=distance/time

4=x/t

x=4t--------2

equating 1 and 2 above we have

2t+3=4t

solving for t we have

4t-2t=3

2t=3

t=3/2

t=1.5

That is 1hr 30 min

A triangle has an area of 12 square units and a height of 8 units. Find its base.

Answers

Answer:

3

Step-by-step explanation:

b= 2 [tex]\frac{A}{Hb}\\[/tex] =   2 · [tex]\frac{12}{8}[/tex] = 3

Answer:

base= 3

Step-by-step explanation:

You need to work backwards to solve this problem

A= 1/2bh

with the information given, the equation should look like this:

12= 1/2b8

To get rid of the fraction, you flip it, and you multiply both sides by that (1/2 fliped is 2)

so  2* 12= 1/2b8 *2

-----------------------------------------------------------------------------

** You can see that the 1/2 and the two cancel each other out. This is why:

1/2* 2/1= 2/2

2/2=1

1 * b8 is just b8

----------------------------------------------------------------------------

So now you have:

24= b8

you want to get b by itself, so you use inverse operations ( you divide both sides by 8)

24/8= b8/8

your final answer is 3=b

you can plug in 3 into the original equation to check your answer!!!

Help Asap !Solve For X In The Diagram.

Answers

Step-by-step explanation:

suppose that angle TSU is y so

23x+5+y = 180

23x+y = 175

now again in traingle TSU

55+14x-5+y = 180

x = 130-y /14

substitute the value of x in 1st equation

ans will be 5

Answer:

x = 6.111

Step-by-step explanation:

The supplement of <AST = 180 - (23x - 5) That supplement is inside the triangle.

Solution

Add the three angles together to get 180

180-(23x - 5) + 14x-5 + 55 = 180         Remove the brackets

180 - 23x + 5 + 14x - 5 + 55 = 180      Combine

-9x + 55 + 180 = 180                        Subtract 180 from both sides.

-9x + 55 = 0                                     Subtract 55 from both sides

-9x = - 55                                         Divide by -9

x = -55/-9

x = 6.111

Check

180 - (23*6.111 - 5) + 14*6.111 - 5 + 55= 180

180 - 140.555 + 5 + 85.555 -5  + 55 = 180

39.445 + 85.555 + 55 = 180

180 = 180

48 divided by what equals eight

Answers

Answer:

6

Step-by-step explanation:

6 is the answer because 6 times 8 equals 48, so if you divide 48 by 8 then the quotient would equal 6.

The number 48 should be divided by 6 to equal eight is 48 ÷ 6 = 8

To find what number 48 should be divided by to equal eight, we can set up the division equation and solve for the unknown value.

Let's represent the unknown number by 'x':

48 ÷ x = 8

Now, to find the value of 'x,' we can isolate it by performing the inverse operation of division, which is multiplication. We can multiply both sides of the equation by 'x':

x * (48 ÷ x) = x * 8

On the left side, 'x' cancels out with the 'x' in the denominator, leaving us with:

48 = 8x

Next, we can solve for 'x' by dividing both sides by 8:

48 ÷ 8 = 8x ÷ 8

6 = x

Therefore, the number 48 should be divided by 6 to equal eight:

48 ÷ 6 = 8
