OpenStudy (anonymous):

\[64^5\]

OpenStudy (anonymous):

can you help me with two others?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

\[x^{(a-b)} = x ^a / x^ b\]

OpenStudy (anonymous):

Sure!

OpenStudy (anonymous):

OpenStudy (anonymous):

Take a look at these rules and see if you can figure it out from them: http://math2.org/math/algebra/exponents.htm

OpenStudy (anonymous):

Let me know if you need help from there.

OpenStudy (anonymous):

I think for 1 A and 2 D?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

\[x^{a}* x ^{b} = x ^{(a+b)}\]

OpenStudy (anonymous):

so for 1: \[4^{3}*4^{4} = 4^{(3+4)}=4^{7}\neq4^{12}\], so the answer is not A. Can you see it now?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

so for one I think b?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

Why b?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

because 3+2 is 5

OpenStudy (anonymous):

but is \[5^{5} > 5^{5}\]?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

no it would be = ?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

That's right!

OpenStudy (anonymous):

So which one is false?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

Sorry I mean true ;)

OpenStudy (anonymous):

c!!

OpenStudy (anonymous):

you got it!

OpenStudy (anonymous):

ok so for 2 it would be a?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

yup!

OpenStudy (anonymous):

thank you. can you help me with another

OpenStudy (anonymous):

Sure!

OpenStudy (anonymous):

OpenStudy (anonymous):

What's \[x(5x)\] ?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

5x^2??

OpenStudy (anonymous):

yes! so what is \[-x(5x)\] ?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

-5x^2

OpenStudy (anonymous):

yup. so then what is \[-x(-4)\]?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

4x

OpenStudy (anonymous):

so put those two together.

OpenStudy (anonymous):

D?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

you got it!

OpenStudy (anonymous):

Thank you!!

OpenStudy (anonymous):

no problem!

OpenStudy (anonymous):

I have one more that I need help with and then that's it I promise lol

OpenStudy (anonymous):

ok shoot!

OpenStudy (anonymous):

OpenStudy (anonymous):

What's 1.4*8?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

11.2?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

yes

OpenStudy (anonymous):

What's \[10^{1}*10^{4}\]?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

100000

OpenStudy (anonymous):

do you know what that is in exponential form?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

10^4??? or 10^5?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

Which one?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

Remember the equation \[x ^{a}*x ^{b}=x ^{(a+b)}\]?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

so 10^5

OpenStudy (anonymous):

yes. another way to determine that is to count the number of zero's.

OpenStudy (anonymous):

so what do we get when we put those two parts together?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

c

OpenStudy (anonymous):

Close.

OpenStudy (anonymous):

You would get \[11.2*10^{5}\] which is equal to what?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

When you move the decimal point one place to the left, what do you do with the exponent?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

1.12

OpenStudy (anonymous):

and what does the \[10^{5}\] become?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

try it on a calculator. \[11.2*10^{5} = 1.12*10^{?}\]

OpenStudy (anonymous):

10^4

OpenStudy (anonymous):

oops I mean 10^6

OpenStudy (anonymous):

that's it! do you understand how that works?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

yes thank you so much

OpenStudy (anonymous):
