Answer:

y = 5x -12

Step-by-step explanation:

point-slope form:

y - y1 = m(x-x1)

m= slope

m= (y2-y1)/ (x2-x1)

we have (4, 8) and (2,-2)

x1 = 4 y1= 8

x2= 2 y2= -2

m=( -2-8) / (2- 4)

m= -10/ -2

m= 5

so we have:

y - 8 = 5(x-4)

y - 8= 5x -20

y= 5x -20 +8

y = 5x -12

Answer:

a. $\sqrt{x^n}$ = $x^\frac{n}{2}$

b. $\sqrt{x^n} = x^\frac{(n-1)}{2}\sqrt{x}$

Step-by-step explanation:

a) When n is even, then it is divisible by 2. Because of this, you can write:

$\sqrt{x^n} = (x^n)^\frac{1}{2}$

$\sqrt{x^n} = x^\frac{n}{2}$

b) When n is odd, then n - 1 is even. This would make it divisible by 2, and there would be a remainder of 1, so we can write:

$\sqrt{x^n} = (x^n^-^1^+^1) ^\frac{1}{2}$

$\sqrt{x^n} = (x^n^-^1$ × $x)^\frac{1}{2}$

$\sqrt{x^n} = x^\frac{(n-1)}{2}$ × $x^\frac{1}{2}$

$\sqrt{x^n} = x^\frac{(n-1)}{2}\sqrt{x}$
