| Recall that am/bn
= am-n and am/n = n
th root of ( am ) 1) What is 93 / 35 ? ______3___________ 36 / 35 = 3 2) What is 5.50 ? _____1_______ anything raised to the 0 is 1. 3) What is 40% of 251/2 ? _____2______ 40/100 ( square root of 25 ) = 2/5 * 5 = 2 5) Simplify (a9 b-5 ) / (b4 a6 ) ____a3 / b9________ 6) What is (0.001)1/3 ? _____0.1________ The cube root of 0.001 is 0.1 because 0.1 cubed is 0.1 * 0.1 * 0.1 = 0.001. 7) What is 323/5 ? _____8_______ (fifth root of 32) 3 = 23 = 8 8) What is (47 + 48) / 28 ? _____320________ Factor out 47 from the top. 47 (1+ 4) / 44 = 43 * 5 = 320 9) What is ((½)9 211)-2 ? _____1/16______ (211 / 29 )-2 = (22)-2 = 2-4 = 1/16 10) Sketch the Graph of y = 2x looks the same as all exponential functions. Just the y scaling is different. My mistake that I forgot problem 4. Sorry. |
