A. It is a system of equations that can be solved using substitution method; x = -3

Step-by-step explanation:

y = 4⁻ˣ

y = 8⁻ˣ⁻¹

Use substitution to replace y in the second equation with 4⁻ˣ

4⁻ˣ = 8⁻ˣ⁻¹

Solve by manipulating the 4 and 8 so they have the same base, then set the exponents equal to each other and solve for x

2²⁽⁻ˣ⁾ = 2³⁽⁻ˣ⁻¹⁾

2(-x) = 3(-x - 1)

-2x = -3x - 3

x = -3

Plug the x-value into either of the equations to solve for y

y = 4⁻ˣ

y = 4⁻⁽⁻³⁾

y = 4³

y = 64

Solution is: (-3, 64)

$\begin{array}{c||c}\ \quad \underline{y=4^{-x}\quad} \ &\quad \underline{y=8^{-x-1}}\quad \\\end{array}\\\begin {array}{c|c||c|c}\quad \underline{x} \quad&\quad \underline{y} \quad &\quad \underline{x} \quad&\quad \underline{y} \quad \\ -3&64&-3&64\\&&&\\-2&16&-2&8\\&&&\\-1&4&-1&1\\&&&\\0&1&0&\dfrac{1}{8}\\ &&&\\1&\dfrac{1}{4}&1&\dfrac{1}{64}\\&&&\\2&\dfrac{1}{16}&2&\dfrac{1}{512}\\&&&\\3&\dfrac{1}{64}&3&\dfrac{1}{4096}\\\end{array}$

Notice that they share the same x, y-coordinate: (-3, 64)

answered: payloo

Explanation:

Part A. An ordered pair (x, y) is a solution to an equation when subsituting those values into the equation creates a true statement.

The equation 4^(-x) = 8^(-x-1) is the same as 4^(-x) = y = 8^(-x-1), which is to say that the same ordered pair (x, y) satisfies both of the equations ...

y = 4^(-x)y = 8^(-x-1)

If the same ordered pair (x, y) satsifies both equations, (x, y) is on the graph of both equations, so the graphs intersect at that point.

Part B. See the attachment for the tables.

Part C. The equations can be solved graphically by graphing both equations, then identifying the point where they intersect. The attachment shows that point to be (x, y) = (-3, 64). So, the solution to 4^(-x) = 8^(-x-1) is x=-3.

The equations can also be solved graphically by plotting the graph of ...

... 8^(-x-1) - 4^(-x)

and looking for the value of x that makes the difference be zero. Many graphing calculators easily identify x-intercepts, so this can be an easy way to find the solution.

An airplane consumes fuel at a constant rate while flying through clear skies, and it consumes fuel at a rate of 64 gallons per minute while flying through rain clouds. let c represent the number of minutes the plane can fly through clear skies and r represent the number of minutes the plane can fly through rain clouds without consuming all of its fuel. 56c+64r < 900056c+64r< 9000 according to the inequality, at what rate does the airplane consume fuel while flying through clear skies, and how much fuel does it have before takeoff? the airplane consumes fuel at a rate of gallons per minute while flying through clear skies, and it has gallons of fuel before takeoff. does the airplane have enough fuel to fly for 60 minutes through clear skies and 90 minutes through rain clouds?
