Question 89210: 1/2-2square root 3
How in the world do you do this. By the way, that is not one half, it is actually a 1 on top and everything else is on bottom with a square root symbol separating the 2 and the three. I just did't know how to type it.

Question 90915: Use the rational exponent equation L=2.43*W^0.3326 to estimate the wingspan L in feet of the bird that weighs W pounds. My bird weighs 2 1/3 ozs. L=2.43*2.33^0.3326

Question 93982: I think this is the right topic, but i am not sure. If you could please help me, that would be great. i really appreciate this. My math worksheet says to simplify- No variable represents a value that would make the expression meaningless. The problem looks a little confusing, so I will explain. The equation reads... (3 over x) plus (1 over x^2) all over (9 over 1) minus (1 over x^2)all of this times (x^2 over x^2). i had to put random dots inbetween all of the numbers because it squished the problem together without something there. I hope this makes sense, thanks.

Question 94556: This is a table so it's tricky typing out in words...
There are 4 rows and 4 columns, and I need to fill in the blanks.
The first column is labeled POWER. The first row in the first column says 2^5.
The fourth row in the first column says r^8. The second column is labeled BASE. The second row in the the second column says 3. The third column is labeled EXPONENT. The second row in the third column says 4. The fourth column is labeled STANDARD FORM. The third row in the fourth column says 125.

phew...
Okay, if you understood that, and if I'm correct, the entire first row should read: 2^5, 2, 5, 32. The second row should read: 3^4, 3, 4, 81. I have no idea about the third row. The last row should read: r^8, r, 8, r^8?
I'm really sorry that was so long and confusing, but I just can't get that third row!
