The rules of exponents are ...
(a^b)/(a^c) = a^(b-c)
a^-b = 1/a^b
Clearly, for division problems if the denominator exponent is larger, the difference 'b-c' will be negative.

You recall that an exponent is the way we show repeated multiplication.
x·x·x = x³
In division, like factors cancel, so ...
[tex]\dfrac{x\cdot x\cdot x}{x\cdot x}=\dfrac{x^3}{x^2}=\dfrac{x}{1}\cdot\dfrac{x\cdot x}{x\cdot x}=x^{3-2}=x^1=x[/tex]
Now, consider the same problem "upside down."
[tex]\dfrac{x\cdot x}{x\cdot x\cdot x}=\dfrac{x^2}{x^3}=\dfrac{1}{x}\cdot\dfrac{x\cdot x}{x\cdot x}=x^{2-3}=x^{-1}=\dfrac{1}{x}[/tex]
6x/x+6
Find all real numbers for which the rational expression is undefined.
Answer:
x=-6
Step-by-step explanation:
For the rational expression, 6x/(x+6) to be undefined, the denominator need to be 0, so x=-6 is the point at which the function is undefined.
The rational expression 6x / (x + 6) is undefined when x equals -6, and it is defined for all other real numbers.
To find the real numbers for which the rational expression 6x / (x + 6) is undefined, we need to identify the values of x that would make the denominator equal to zero. When the denominator is zero, the expression becomes undefined.
In this case, the denominator is (x + 6). Setting the denominator equal to zero, we have:
x + 6 = 0
Solving for x, we subtract 6 from both sides:
x = -6
Therefore, the rational expression 6x / (x + 6) is undefined when x = -6.
When x is equal to -6, the denominator becomes zero, which causes division by zero. Division by zero is undefined in mathematics. Hence, for x = -6, the rational expression is not defined.
For any other real numbers other than x = -6, the expression is defined and can be simplified or evaluated.

Melinda takes out a loan to purchase a car. The balance on her loan after x months is represented by the equation y = 10,000 – 250x and the value of the car after x months is represented by y = 8,000 – 50x. Which statement describes when Melinda’s loan will be equal to the value of the car?
After 10 months, the loan and value of the car will both be equal to $7,500.
After 12 months, the loan and value of the car will both be equal to $7,000.
After 14 months, the loan and value of the car will both be equal to $6,500.
After 16 months, the loan and value of the car will both be equal to $6,000.
Answer:
After 10 months, the loan and value of the car will both be equal to $7,500.
Step-by-step explanation:
Value of the loan after x months:
[tex]y_l = 10000 - 250x[/tex]
Value of the car after x months:
[tex]y_c = 8000 - 50x[/tex]
Which statement describes when Melinda’s loan will be equal to the value of the car?
They are equal when:
[tex]y_l = y_c[/tex]
So
[tex]10000 - 250x = 8000 - 50x[/tex]
[tex]200x = 2000[/tex]
[tex]x = \frac{2000}{200}[/tex]
[tex]x = 10[/tex]
Equal after 10 months:
Value of [tex]y(10) = 8000 - 50(10) = 7500[/tex]
Thus, the correct option is:
After 10 months, the loan and value of the car will both be equal to $7,500.
Which equation represents a slope of −4 and y-intercept of (0,2)?
y = −4x + 2
y = −2x
y = −2x − 4
y = 4x + 2
Answer:
y=-4x+2
Step-by-step explanation:
Hi there!
We want to find out which equation represents a line with a slope of -4 and a y intercept of (0,2)
The most common way to write the equation of the line is in slope-intercept form, which is y=mx+b, where m is the slope and b is the y intercept
We have everything we need to plug into the equation, let's just label the values to avoid confusion
m=-4
b=2 (when you substitute the y intercept as b, b is the value of y in the point)
Now substitute into the equation
y=-4x+2
Hope this helps!
If I toss a fair coin five times and the outcomes are TTTTT, then the probability that tails appears on the next toss is
1) 0.5
2) greater than 0.5
3) 1
4) less than 0.5
5) 0
Answer:
1. 0.5
Step-by-step explanation:
The probability of flipping a coin and landing on heads or tails is 100%. So 3)1 would be incorrect. In probability, we learned that just because something was picked more than once, it does not lower the chances of the thing being picked again. So 5)0 would be incorrect. The chances of getting tails are 50% also 0.5 and the chances of getting heads are 50% also 0.5. So 1 is correct.
There is a 0.5 percent chance that the following coin will land on its side.
What is Probability?Probability refers to potential. A random event's occurrence is the subject of this area of mathematics. The range of the value is 0 to 1.
The sample space, which is typically represented using set notation, contains a list of all the potential ordered outcomes as elements. A sample space with all possible outcomes exists for a series of five fair coin tosses. The example of a fair coin toss is 2*2*2H,T.
{HHHHH,HHHHT,HHHTH,HHTHH,HTHHH........TTTTT} The likelihood that the next coin will land on its side is always equal to It doesn't matter if previous results were TTTTT, HHHHH, or TTHT. The probability that the next number will be a tails is therefore still 0.5 in each of these cases as well as all others.

4a. a_n = 2(1/3 + a_n-1), a_1 = 4
4b. a_n= n/(a_n-1), a_1 = 6
4c. 1/6, 2/3, 8/3, . . .
Problem 4a
The instructions are incomplete. You set up the recursive formula, but didn't ask any question about said formula.
I'll assume that your teacher wants you to list out a few terms. I'll list out the first five terms.
The notation a_1 = 4 is the same as writing [tex]a_1 = 4[/tex] where the '1' is a subscript. It tells us that the first term is 4.
The nth term a_n or [tex]a_n[/tex] is defined as such
[tex]a_n = 2*(1/3 + a_{n-1})\\\\[/tex]
Notice how if we replaced n with 2, then we get
[tex]a_n = 2*(1/3 + a_{n-1})\\\\a_2 = 2*(1/3 + a_{2-1})\\\\a_2 = 2*(1/3 + a_1)\\\\[/tex]
So the second term is directly tied to the first term, or it is dependent on it.
We'll replace a_1 with 4 to get the following
[tex]a_2 = 2*(1/3 + a_1)\\\\a_2 = 2*(1/3 + 4)\\\\a_2 = 2*(1/3 + 12/3)\\\\a_2 = 2*(13/3)\\\\a_2 = 26/3\\\\[/tex]
So the second term is 26/3.
As you can guess, the third term is going to be found in a similar fashion
[tex]a_n = 2*(1/3 + a_{n-1})\\\\a_3 = 2*(1/3 + a_{3-1})\\\\a_3 = 2*(1/3 + a_2)\\\\a_3 = 2*(1/3 + 26/3)\\\\a_3 = 2*(27/3)\\\\a_3 = 2*(9)\\\\a_3 = 18\\\\[/tex]
So 18 is the third term.
We'll repeat for n = 4 to get the fourth term.
[tex]a_n = 2*(1/3 + a_{n-1})\\\\a_4 = 2*(1/3 + a_{4-1})\\\\a_4 = 2*(1/3 + a_3)\\\\a_4 = 2*(1/3 + 18)\\\\a_4 = 2*(1/3 + 54/3)\\\\a_4 = 2*(55/3)\\\\a_4 = 110/3\\\\[/tex]
The fourth term is 110/3.
Lastly, we'll plug in n = 5
[tex]a_n = 2*(1/3 + a_{n-1})\\\\a_5 = 2*(1/3 + a_{5-1})\\\\a_5 = 2*(1/3 + a_4)\\\\a_5 = 2*(1/3 + 110/3)\\\\a_5 = 2*(111/3)\\\\a_5 = 2*(37)\\\\a_5 = 74\\\\[/tex]
The fifth term is 74.
Answer: The first five terms are 4, 26/3, 18, 110/3, 74==============================================================
Problem 4b
Again, the instructions are missing. I'll assume the same thing as problem 4a.
[tex]a_1 = 6[/tex] is the first term
Plug n = 2 into the first equation to get
[tex]a_n = \frac{n}{a_{n-1}}\\\\a_2 = \frac{2}{a_{2-1}}\\\\a_2 = \frac{2}{a_{1}}\\\\a_2 = \frac{2}{6}\\\\a_2 = \frac{1}{3}\\\\[/tex]
The second term is 1/3.
Repeat for n = 3
[tex]a_n = \frac{n}{a_{n-1}}\\\\a_3 = \frac{3}{a_{3-1}}\\\\a_3 = \frac{3}{a_{2}}\\\\a_3 = \frac{3}{1/3}\\\\a_3 = 3\div\frac{1}{3}\\\\a_3 = 3\times\frac{3}{1}\\\\a_3 = 9\\\\[/tex]
The third term is 9
Repeat for n = 4.
[tex]a_n = \frac{n}{a_{n-1}}\\\\a_4 = \frac{4}{a_{4-1}}\\\\a_4 = \frac{4}{a_{3}}\\\\a_4 = \frac{4}{9}\\\\[/tex]
The fourth term is 4/9
Repeat for n = 5
[tex]a_n = \frac{n}{a_{n-1}}\\\\a_5 = \frac{5}{a_{5-1}}\\\\a_5 = \frac{5}{a_{4}}\\\\a_5 = 5 \div a_{4}\\\\a_5 = 5 \div \frac{4}{9}\\\\a_5 = 5 \times \frac{9}{4}\\\\a_5 = \frac{5}{1} \times \frac{9}{4}\\\\a_5 = \frac{5*9}{1*4}\\\\a_5 = \frac{45}{4}\\\\[/tex]
Answer: The first five terms are 6, 1/3, 9, 4/9, 45/4==============================================================
Problem 4c
I'm not much help here for this problem. Not only are the instructions missing, but it's not clear how this sequence is set up. If I had to guess, it's somehow recursively defined. How exactly, I'm not sure. I would ask your teacher for any clarification.

Answer:
A. 1/2
Step-by-step explanation:
The points on a unit circle are (cos(θ), sin(θ)), where θ is the angle from the +x axis to to the ray from the origin through that point.
If the point is (√3/2, 1/2), then sin(θ) = 1/2.
The table above shows the percent of the area of a town
devoted to three uses. If the area devoted to business use
is 7,200 acres less than the area devoted to residential
use, what is the area, in acres, devoted to government
use?
A) 1,400
B) 1,800
C) 5,200
D) 44,000
=========================================================
Explanation:
Let
r = area devoted to residential use
This variable is some positive real number, and it represents the area in acres.
Your teacher says that " the area devoted to business use is 7,200 acres less than the area devoted to residential use"
This means the expression r-7200 represents the area for business use
Note the jump from 25% to 65% is 65/25 = 2.6, meaning that we multiply by 2.6 when going from the business area to the residential area.
So we'll multiply by 2.6 to go from r-7200 to r
We'll have this equation
2.6(r-7200) = r
because it's effectively saying
2.6*(business area) = residential area
--------------------------
Let's isolate r
2.6(r-7200) = r
2.6r-2.6*7200 = r
2.6r - 18720 = r
2.6r - r = 18720
1.6r = 18720
r = 18720/(1.6)
r = 11700
We'll use 11700 acres for the residential portion.
And also r-7200 = 11700-7200 = 4500 acres are set aside for the business district.
--------------------------
The largest region (residential) uses 11700 acres of land.
Note the jump from 10% to 65% involves a multiplier of 6.5 because 65/10 = 6.5
So if g is the amount of government land used, then,
6.5g = r
6.5g = 11700
g = 11700/(6.5)
g = 1800
1800 acres of land are for government use
This is why the answer is choice B.
The area, in acres, devoted to government use is 1800.
Option (B) is correct.
To find the area.
What is percentage?Percentage, a relative value indicating hundredth parts of any quantity.
Given that:
Let
r = area devoted to residential use
This variable is some positive real number, and it represents the area in acres.
This means the expression r-7200 represents the area for business use
Note the jump from 25% to 65% is 65/25 = 2.6, meaning that we multiply by 2.6 when going from the business area to the residential area.
To multiply by 2.6 to go from r-7200 to r
The equation is
2.6(r-7200) = r
because it's effectively saying
2.6*(business area) = residential area
--------------------------
Let's isolate r
2.6(r-7200) = r
2.6r-2.6*7200 = r
2.6r - 18720 = r
2.6r - r = 18720
1.6r = 18720
r = 18720/(1.6)
r = 11700
We'll use 11700 acres for the residential portion.
And also r-7200 = 11700-7200 = 4500 acres are set aside for the business district.
The largest region (residential) uses 11700 acres of land.
Note the jump from 10% to 65% involves a multiplier of 6.5 because 65/10 = 6.5
So if g is the amount of government land used, then,
6.5g = r
6.5g = 11700
g = 11700/(6.5)
g = 1800
So, the area, in acres, devoted to government use is 1800.

The 3rd and 7th terms of an arithmetic progression are 6and 30 respectively determine the common difference, first term,10th term.
Answer:
d = 6 , a₁ = - 6 and a₁₀ = 48
Step-by-step explanation:
The nth term of an arithmetic progression is
[tex]a_{n}[/tex] = a₁ + (n - 1)d
where a₁ is the first term and d the common difference
Given a₃ = 6 and a₇ = 30 , then
a₁ + 2d = 6 → (1)
a₁ + 6d = 30 → (2)
Subtract (2) from (1) term by term to eliminate a₁
4d = 24 ( divide both sides by 4 )
d = 6
Substitute d = 6 into (1)
a₁ + 2(6) = 6
a₁ + 12 = 6 ( subtract 12 from both sides )
a₁ = - 6
Then
a₁₀ = - 6 + (9 × 6) = - 6 + 54 = 48

x = 16×3/4 = 12
Step-by-step explanation:
the only side length we have for both triangles is the short left side.
we see that we get ED from SR and need to transform 4 into 3. how do we do that ?
well,
4×f = 3
f = 3/4
that is the scaling factor, as all side lengths in EDF are created by multiplying the corresponding side in SRT by the same scaling factor (3/4).
therefore,
x = EF = ST×f = 16×3/4 = 4×3 = 12
Answer:
The scale factor is 4/3 and x is 12
Step-by-step explanation:
→ Divide RS by DE
4 ÷ 3 = 4/3
→ Divide the answer by 16
16 ÷ 4/3 = 12
a person who take 40 paces to cover 20m finds that a square field has a side that is 520 paces long .calculate the length of the side and the area of the field
The area of the square field is 67600 m² and the side is 260 m long.
What is square?A quadrilateral with all sides equal and all angles are right angles.
Given that, a person takes 40 paces to cover 20 m of a square field according to him the field has a side that is 520 paces long, we need to find the measure of the side and the area,
Since,
40 paces = 20 m
1 pace = 1/2 m
Therefore,
520 paces = 0.5 x 520 m
= 260 m
Therefore, the square field is 260 m long,
Area of the square field = side² = 260²
= 67600 m²
Hence, the area of the square field is 67600 m² and the side is 260 m long.

50% of teachers prefer to go to the aquarium
Step-by-step explanation:
1.
8 students prefer the aquarium out of 40 students.
Set up an equation:
Variable x = percentage of students
8/40 = x/100
Cross multiply:
8 × 100 = 40 × x
800 = 40x
20 = x
Divide:
20%
Check your work:
40 students × 20%
Convert percentage into decimal:
40 × 0.20
