*****FAN AND MEDAL********* HELP!!!!
Select the symbol that makes the number sentence true. \[4^2/2^-3 (blank) \left| -2 \times 7 \right| \times \left| 2 - 10 \right|\] \[A) < \] \[B) > \] \[C) =\] \[D) \le \] Sorry that took so long this is hard to do on a laptop XD
@Mertsj
is that 2 to the negative third power
yes
the answer is B
how did you get it?
\[\frac{4^2}{2^{-3}}|-2\times7|\times|2-10|\]
Is that the correct problem?
yes, I just couldnt do that on a laptop for some reson :/
yes the answer is B and the problem is correct
First of all, work on the fraction. Do you know that 1/a^-n=a^n?
@Mertsj I have no idea what 1/a^-n=a^n means...:/
its B the left side is 128 and the right side is 112
I know that it BI just want to know how to get it
\[\frac{4^2}{2^{-3}}=4^2(2^3)\]
Do you know this property: \[\frac{1}{a ^{-n}}=a^n\]
yes..
So what is the left side?
you just solve for each side you take 4 squared and divid that by 2 to the negative 3 and then you solve fr the other side
128?
Yes. 16 x 8 = 128
Now let's work on the right side.
-2 x 7 and since it absoute vaule you cant have a negative so it would be 14 , the ndo 2-10 and you would get 8 and multiply 14 by8 to get the value of that side
-2X14=
so then the other side would be 112, ok now I get it thank you @Mertsj
yw
Thank you @rolla you helped alot to :)
ur welcome :) @Stabar
