Choose the correct simplification 2a^0
anything raised to 0 is equal to 1 (note: that only affects the base)
I believe the answer is 1
Remember anything raised to the 0 power...=1 *just notice....only 'a' is raised to the 0 power*
So what's the legit answer is it 2a or 1
Well you have 2a^0 only 'a' is raised to the 0...and anything raised to the 0 is = 1 so you have 2 * 1...which = ?
1
2 times 1... = ?
Equals 1
Lol sorry 2
2 times 1 equals 2 Anything times 1...= that number 100 * 1 = 100 5 * 1 = 5 etc...
So the answer is 2?
That is correct
Thanks I have 3 more question I think I know them but I'm not shre
Choose the correct simplification for x^2/x^5 and the correct simplification for x^6/x^3
Let me see what you think first and we'll work from there...
Okay I think that the first one is x^3
And so is the second one
Well remember...when dividing exponents with the same base...you are subtracting the exponents and leaving the base alone....so the first one x^2 / x^5 = x^(2 - 5) = x^(?)
-3
Right...so the first one is x^-3 The second one.. you have posted above to be x^3...is correct
Okay but it's a multiple question and -3 is not there
So is it just x^3 for the first one?
No...unless you meant x^5/x^2 ?
Itswriitin the other way around
@Directrix
What about (x^9)^2
Which one of these problems are we doing: Choose the correct simplification for x^2/x^5 OR the correct simplification for x^6/x^3 ?
The first one and the one I just wrote
@Directrix
x^2/x^5 = 1/x^3 |dw:1373328198006:dw|
