Answers

Answer 1
Answer:

r⁻⁸ s⁻⁵

using the rule x⁻ⁿ=1/xⁿ

r⁻⁸ s⁻⁵ = (1/r⁸)(1/s⁵)

Answer 2
Answer:

Sample Response: Each base must be treated separately. Since each base is raised to a negative exponent, they should both be in the denominator of the fractions. The simplified form of the expression has 1 in the numerator and r to the 8th power times s to the 5th power in the denominator.

1) While your family is visiting Deep Creek Lake, you and your brother decide to go boating. Thepark rangers require a $25.00 down payment to rent a canoe and a rental fee of $10.00 per hour.

a) Write a linear function to model this scenario.

Answers

Answer:

Y=10x+25

Step-by-step explanation:

Hey so let’s take the number of hours we go boating as “x” and the TOTAL cost of this whole trip as “y”.

So obviously y would equal everything else so we can write

Y=

Next, it says we rent a canoe for $10 an hour. That means we would have to multiply 10 and x to find the cost of the rent.

So

Y=10x

Finally, it says we paid a registration fee of $25. This 25 is not affected by the number of hours or anything else. It is a fixed amount so we can represent it as

Y=10x+25
