If 5^n x 5^3 = 5^6, then n is _.

A) 18
B) 2
C) 3
D) 9

The rule we'll use is a^b*a^c = a^(b+c). So we add the exponents.

That means 5^n*5^3 = 5^(n+3)

So 5^n*5^3 = 5^6 turns into 5^(n+3) = 5^6

The bases are equal to 5, so the exponents be equal to one another.

n+3 = 6

n+3-3 = 6-3

n = 3

So 5^3*5^3 = 5^(3+3) = 5^6.

n = 3

Step-by-step explanation:

Using the rule of exponents

× ⇔

Given

× 5³ = , then

=

Since the bases on both sides are 5, the equate the exponents

n + 3 = 6 ( subtract 3 from both sides )

n = 3

answer: option a.

step-by-step explanation:

you know that the quadrilateral opqr ( a four sided figure) is inscribed in circle. this means that all its vertices are on the circle.

then, by definition, the opposite angles of the quadrilateral are supplementary, this means that the sum of their measures is 180 degrees.

you can observe in the figure that the angles ∠opq   and the angle ∠orq   are opposite, therefore:

then, can be used to d to calculate the measure of ∠opq

for this pair of functions g(x)=x-2 and f(x)=|x| is (g o f)(a)= |a| -2

step-by-step explanation:

g(x)=x-2

f(x)=|x|

(g o f)(a)=?

(g o f)(x)=g(f(x))

(g o f)(x)=g(|x|)

(g o f)(x)=|x|-2

(g o f)(a)=|a|-2
