(-3)3 (26)
Geoffrey is evaluating the expression
pression (-3) (22) as si
as shown below.
(-3)² (26) (2)° c
(-3) 5 (22) - (-3)0
What are the values of a, b, c, and d?
a=4, b=2, C= 16. d=9
2-4,5--2, с- 16.0-9
a-8, D-8, C- 256, 0-6,561
a-3, 6-8, C-256, d--6,561

Question:

Geoffrey is evaluating the expression (-3)^3(2^6)/(-3)^5(2^2) as shown below.

(-3)^3(2^6)/(-3)^5(2^2) = (2)^a/(-3)^b = c/d

What are the values of a, b, c, and d?

The values are a = 4, b = 2, c = 16, d = 9

Solution:

Given that,

Geoffrey is evaluating the expression

He is evaluating as shown below:

From given,

Use the law of exponent

Therefore,

Thus,

a = 4

b = 2

Simplify further

Thus,

c = 16

d = 9

Thus values are a = 4, b = 2, c = 16, d = 9

-7

step-by-step explanation:

x^2 + 18x + 74 = (x + 9)^2 - 81 + 74

= (x + 9)^2 - 7.

so q = -7.
