Rewrite the expression in the picture in the form k times x^n.

8 x^-2

Step-by-step explanation:

2 sqrt(x) * 4x ^ -5/2

Rewriting

2 x^1/2  * 4x ^ -5/2

2*4 = 8

x^1/2 * x^ -5/2  

We know a^b * a^c = a^(b+c)

x^ 1/2 * x^ -5/2 = x^ (1/2 -5/2 ) = x^ (-4/2) = x^-2

8 x^-2

8 x^-2

Step-by-step explanation:

2 sqrt(x) * 4x ^ -5/2

2 x^1/2  * 4x ^ -5/2

2*4 = 8

x^1/2 * x^ -5/2  

x^ 1/2 * x^ -5/2 = x^ (1/2 -5/2 ) = x^ (-4/2) = x^-2

8 x^-2

3 is greater then both of those numbers

the system of inequalities is

step-by-step explanation:

step 1

find the equation of the dashed line

we have the points

(0,0) and (3,1)

the line passes through the origin, so, is a direct variation

find the slope

the equation of the dashed line is

the solution of the inequality a s the shaded area above the dashed line

therefore

the equation of the inequality a is

step 2

find the equation of the solid line

we have the points

(4,0) and (0,4)

find the slope

the equation of the solid line is

the solution of the inequality b s the shaded area below the solid line

therefore

the equation of the inequality b is

step 3

the system of inequalities is
