Step-by-step explanation:
4^5 (-2)^9/4^8 (-2)^3
= 4^(5 - 8) (-2^(9 - 3))
= 4^-3 (-2^6)
= (-2)^6/4^3
1). (-2)^a/4^b
a = 6, b = 3
2). c/d
c = -2, d = 4
Answer:
97.98
Step-by-step explanation:
The area of the parallelogram PQR is the magnitude of the cross product of any two adjacent sides. Using PQ and PS as the adjacent sides;
Area of the parallelogram = |PQ×PS|
PQ = Q-P and PS = S-P
Given P(0,0,0), Q(4,-5,3), R(4,-7,1), S(8,-12,4)
PQ = (4,-5,3) - (0,0,0)
PQ = (4,-5,3)
Also, PS = S-P
PS = (8,-12,4)-(0,0,0)
PS = (8,-12,4)
Taking the cross product of both vectors i.e PQ×PS
(4,5,-3)×(8,-12,4)
PQ×PS = (20-36)i - (16-(-24))j + (-48-40)k
PQ×PS = -16i - 40j -88k
|PQ×PS| = √(-16)²+(-40)²+(-88)²
|PQ×PS| = √256+1600+7744
|PQ×PS| = √9600
|PQ×PS| ≈ 97.98
Hence the area of the parallelogram is 97.98
