OpenStudy (anonymous):

hero (hero):
Think about it
OpenStudy (anonymous):

wait but how could d be a possiblity
hero (hero):
Double check your rules of exponents
OpenStudy (anonymous):
WAIT! r u saying that D is also an answer???
hero (hero):
\[4^{2x} = (4^2)^x = 16^x\]
OpenStudy (anonymous):
shoot! r u serious! that was the one I corrected and I already submitted it!

OpenStudy (anonymous):
ugh! why didn't I think of that. that was a silly mistake!!!
hero (hero):
Why did you wait until after you submitted it to check?
OpenStudy (anonymous):
no, its kind of like a timed thing.... if you wait too long the screen changes and goes on the next question
hero (hero):
Well you need to be faster. How long do you get per question?
hero (hero):
And where's your calc? Use that

its not like a specific timing
hero (hero):
How do you know the time isn't specific?
hero (hero):
You have to time it yourself probably.
OpenStudy (anonymous):
i just know that once you take too long (maybe more than like 5 mins or something) it just t let u er the question
hero (hero):
Time it with a question you already know the answer to.

5 minutes is plenty of time.
OpenStudy (anonymous):
ok well here i want to check the next one w/ u
OpenStudy (anonymous):
same directions
hero (hero):
Sounds like a test though.
OpenStudy (anonymous):
3^x
A. 3*(3^(x+1))
B. 3*(3^(x-1))
C. (18^x)/3
D. (18/6)
E. x^3
F. (18^x/6^x)

OpenStudy (anonymous):
so i got.....
D, F,
OpenStudy (anonymous):
is that right?
OpenStudy (anonymous):
I just need help w/ the question I asked right now
OpenStudy (anonymous):
the above comments are abt another question
OpenStudy (anonymous):
for this question I got B, D, & F. Is that correct?

I can write : \(3^x\) as \(3^x\times \frac{3}{3}\)
Or , \(\cfrac{3^x}{3} \times 3\)
\(3^{x-1} \times 3\)
OpenStudy (anonymous):
so is my answer correct?
mathslover (mathslover):
Yeah it is B) only.
OpenStudy (anonymous):
how is it b ONLY? that doesn't really make sense. 18/6 equals 3, so 3^x wold be correct, right?
OpenStudy (anonymous):
same thing with D,?

mathslover (mathslover):
18/6 = 3 \(\ne\) 3^x
mathslover (mathslover):
3 is not equal to 3^x.
OpenStudy (anonymous):
yes but it raised to x
mathslover (mathslover):
3 is 3^1
while, 3^x
OpenStudy (anonymous):
so wouldn't it be correct

mathslover (mathslover):
x is an variable, it can eitherr be 0, 1,2,3 or anything.
So, only B) is correct
mathslover (mathslover):
F is also Right,
mathslover (mathslover):
\(\cfrac{18^x}{6^x } = 3^x\)
OpenStudy (anonymous):
yea, so then it'd be B, D & F correct?
mathslover (mathslover):
No. B and F
Join the QuestionCove community and study together with friends!
Sign Up
OpenStudy (anonymous):
but D is the same thing as F....
mathslover (mathslover):
No, both are different. 18^x / 6^x gives 3^x and 18/6 gives 3 . 3^x and 3 are completely Different.
OpenStudy (anonymous):
because the product law states that:
example:
(2*8)^3 is the same thing as (2^3)*(8^3)
OpenStudy (anonymous):
are you like still thinking
OpenStudy (anonymous):
r u there :( ?

wut?
OpenStudy (anonymous):
next question: 16^x
A. 4*(4^x)
B. 4*(4^2x)
C. 4^2*4^x
D. 4^(2x)
E. 4^x*4^x
F. (4*4)^x
OpenStudy (anonymous):
I said B, D, & F. I'm wondering if that's correct

Bro, we already went over this question before. I think there's something wrong with you.

Originally, you picked E and F. Then I pointed out that D was also correct.
