What does the term negative exponent mean in math?
the exponent is a negative
What is one half y cubed inside parethesis with exponent of two outside of parenthesis?
(1/2y3)2(.5y3)2Multiply each term's exponent by 2 (remember that .5 = .51).52y(6).25y6 or 1/4y6
When asked to divide a term with a exponent by the same term with an exponent?
If you divide two common bases, you can subtract their exponents as an equivalent operation.
What is a quadratic eqation?
A quadratic equation is an equation where the highest exponent on the variable is 2. For example, the equation, y=2x2+3x-2 is a quadratic equation. The equation y=2x is not quadratic because the highest exponent on x is 1. (If there is no exponent on an x, then the exponent is 1.) The equation, y=x3+3x2-2 is not quadratic because the highest exponent is three. On a graph, a quadratic equation looks like a U or and upside down U. Here are some more example of quadratic equations: y=x2 y=3x2+2x-3 y=x2+5
What is the length of an humpback whale in scientific notation?
1.5 x 101 meters the exponent could be not written because 1 is the 'understood' exponent. 10 means 101
What exponent are all numbers are understood to have?
1, if the exponent is not shown.
What is y to the negative 8 exponent?
A negative exponent means the reciprocal of the positive exponent → y^-8 = 1/(y^8) = 1/(y×y×y×y×y×y×y×y)
What is the reciprocal of a negative exponent when the exponent is a fraction?
The reciprocal of a^(-x/y) is 1/a^(x/y). The fact that the exponent is a fraction makes no difference.
What is the exponent of y in 3xy?
Whenever you see a variable (letter) without any exponent, it's exponent is 1.
What does the term negative exponent mean in math?
the exponent is a negative
What is y mean on maths?
Y is an exponent. It can be any number unless it is specified.
73.35 equals 4.37 plus y?
73.35+4.37+yAdd 4.37 to 73.35 to get 77.72.(d)/(dy) 73.35+4.37+y=77.72+ySince 77.72 does not contain y, the derivative of 77.72 is 0.(d)/(dy) 73.35+4.37+y=0+(d)/(dy) yTo find the derivative of y, multiply the base (y) by the exponent (1), then subtract 1 from the exponent (1-1=0). Since the exponent is now 0, y is eliminated from the term.(d)/(dy) 73.35+4.37+y=0+1Combine all similar expressions.(d)/(dy) 73.35+4.37+y=1The derivative of 73.35+4.37+y is 1.1
What is the general rule for dividing exponents with the same base?
It is the base raised to the exponent used in the numerator minus the exponent for the denominator. That is, a^x / a^y = a^(x-y)
What is one half y cubed inside parethesis with exponent of two outside of parenthesis?
(1/2y3)2(.5y3)2Multiply each term's exponent by 2 (remember that .5 = .51).52y(6).25y6 or 1/4y6
Degree of a term?
the variable's exponent
