Using the properties of integer exponents, match each expression with its equivalent expression.

Answers

From the power rules, the matching of  each expression with its equivalent expression is:

[tex]5^{-3}=\frac{1}{125}[/tex]

[tex]-5^{-3}=-\frac{1}{125}[/tex]

[tex](-5^{-3})^{-1}=-125[/tex]

[tex](-5^{-3})^{0}=1[/tex]

Power Rules

There are different power rules, see some them:

1. Negative exponent. For this rule when you have a negative exponent, you need to invert the number, i.e, the power base is converted to the denominator. After that, you should solve the power with a positive exponent.  See the  examples:

[tex]4^{-3}=\frac{1}{4^3} =\frac{1}{64} \\ \\ {\frac{4}{6} }^{-2}=( {\frac{6}{4} })^{2}=\frac{36}{16}[/tex]

2. Power. For this rule, you should repeat the base and multiply the exponents. See the  example, [tex](2^{2})^3=2^6=64[/tex].

3. Zero Exponent. When you have an exponent equals to zero, the result must be 1.  See the  example, [tex]2^0=1[/tex].

From this for your question, you have:

[tex]5^{-3}=\frac{1}{5^3}=\frac{1}{125}[/tex]

[tex]-5^{-3}=-\frac{1}{5^3}=-\frac{1}{125}[/tex]

A sculptor is planning to order a rectangular block of composite stone to sculpt a lion.

The sculptor anticipates that the lion will be 5 feet long, about 2 feet wide and at the tallest part of the lion's body, have a height of 3.5 feet.

The composite stone weighs 40 pounds per cubic foot.

To the nearest cubic foot, estimate the weight of the smallest rectangular block that the sculptor must purchase in order to create his statue.

Then the weight of the smallest rectangular block will be

Mass = density x volume

The volume will be

Answer:

C. The note on the package only told customers to call in the event that they had a concern, which could bias the results negatively.

Explanation:

Since customers were only told to call if they had concerns, all of the calls were about concerns or problems that they were having - meaning all of the calls were negative. However, they were never informed to call if they were happy or content with the product, meaning they were never informed of the people who had positive comments, only negative.

Linear relationships unit 3 lesson 10 grade 8 openuprespurces

Answers

Answer:

k = 11, if I understand the question.

Step-by-step explanation:

Please rephrase the question if my interpretation is incorrect.  (BTW, isn't (k,9) a dog?)

======================

I'll assume that we want to find the value of k as given by the equation of a line that has a slope of (1/2).  

Let's determine if we can establish an equation with what we know:

1.  It goes through point (3,5), and

2.  It has a slope of (1/2)

We'll look for a line with the form y=mx+b, where m is the slope and b is the y-intercept (the value of y when x=0).

From (2) we know y = (1/2)x + b.

We can find b by using the one known point that lies on the line (3,5).  Use y = (1/2)x + b, insert the point (3,5), and solve for b:

y = (1/2)x + b

5 = (1/2)(3) + b

5 = 1.5 + b

b = 3.5

The line is y = (1/2)x + 3.5.

Now use the point (k,9):

y = (1/2)x + 3.5

9 = (1/2)k + 3.5

(1/2)k = 5.5

k = 11

The point is (11,9) so k = 9

Their reciprocals are:

1/1, 1/2, 1/3, 1/4; and

The sum of them are greater than 2; that is

1/1 + 1/2 + 1/3 + 1/4 = 2.08333333333 > 2

1/1 + 1/2 + 1/3 + 1/4+ (1/5) + (1/6) + (1/7) + (1/8)+ (1/9) + (1/10) + (1/11) = 3.01987734488

I tried to use the law of cosine but the numbers I get are in decimal places and are too small for the angles.

Answers

Answer:

y = √119 ≈ 10.909θ ≈ 65.376°α ≈ 24.624°sin(θ) = (√119)/12 ≈ 0.909059cos(θ) = 5/12 ≈ 0.416667tan(θ) = (√119)/5 ≈ 2.181742csc(θ) = (12√119)/119 ≈ 1.100038sec(θ) = 2.4cot(θ) = (5√119)/119 ≈ 0.458349

Step-by-step explanation:

You can use the Law of Cosines after you find y or θ. Using the given information, you can apply the Pythagorean theorem, the Law of Sines, or the definition of the cosine trig function.

The mnemonic SOH CAH TOA is intended to remind you of the relations between sides and angles in a right triangle. It tells you ...

  Sin = Opposite/Hypotenuse

  Cos = Adjacent/Hypotenuse

Find y

The Pythagorean theorem relates the measures of the sides. It tells you ...

  y² +5² = 12²

  y = √(144 -25) = √119

Find angles

The trig relations above tell you ...

  sin(α) = 5/12   ⇒   α = arcsin(5/12) ≈ 24.624°

 cos(θ) = 5/12   ⇒   θ = arccos(5/12) ≈ 65.376°

Of course, once you find one of the angles, you can find the other. The sum of the two acute angles in a right triangle is 90°.

Find trig functions

Using the definitions above for the trig functions, you have ...

  sin(θ) = y/12 = (√119)/12

  cos(θ) = 5/12

  tan(θ) = y/5 = (√119)/5

Using trig identities, you have ...

  csc(θ) = 1/sin(θ) = 12/√119 = (12√119)/119

  sec(θ) = 1/cos(θ) = 12/5 = 2.4

  cot(θ) = 1/tan(θ) = 5/√119 = (5√119)/119

_____

Additional comment

The attached calculator screen shot shows you the angle θ on the first line, and the value of y on the second line. The csc, sec, and cot are shown on the third line. You will notice the angle mode (DEG) is seen in the lower left corner. If the calculator angle mode is set to radians, you will see the angles as relatively small radian values: θ ≈ 1.141, α ≈ 0.4298.

We have shown both exact values and decimal values you can round to the desired precision.

5x² + 60x + 180 = 0

5 x 180 = 900

you need 2 numbers that multiplies into 900 and adds into 60. these numbers are 30 and 30. now we can rewrite it

5x² + 30x + 30x + 180 = 0.

split it in half and factorise

5x(x + 6) + 30(x + 6) = 0

this means the brackets are:

(5x + 30)(x + 6) = 0

5x + 30 = 0

5x = -30

x = -6

x + 6 = 0

x = -6

therefore, x = -6.
