question 1 (essay worth 10 points)
(01.02 mc)
part a: if (7^2)x = 1, what is the value of x? explain your answer. (5 points)
part b: if (7^0)x = 1, what are the possible values of x? explain your answer. (5 points)

Step-by-step explanation:

A.

(7^2)^x = 1

(49)^x = 1

thus x = 0

B.

(7^0)^x=1

(1)^x = 1

x can be any real number.

5x+40

5(x + 8)

7x - 49

7(x - 7)

18x + 9

9(2x + 1)

15x - 10

5(3x - 2)

step-by-step explanation:

for number one all you have to do is factor 5 out of 5x + 40

for number 2 factor 7 out of 7x - 49

for number three factor 9 out of 18x + 9

for number four factor 5 out of 15x - 10

the formula of a slope:

from a table we have

substitute:

the slope of f(x) is -1.

the graph of funcfion g(x) is a horizontal line. the slope of a horizontal line is equal 0. therefore the slope of g(x) is 0.

-1 < 0
