## anonymous one year ago who can help? its algebra 1

1. Photon336

@julie1.2 sure

2. anonymous

ok good :) its this |dw:1443476050124:dw|

3. anonymous

does it equal 1?

4. Photon336

I thin it's that anything raised to the zeroth power = 1

5. anonymous

yea my teacher told me but i wasn't sure on this one

6. anonymous

there another one can u help?

7. Photon336

@julie1.2 this is what you have right $(d \frac{ 4 }{ 3 })^{0}$

8. anonymous

yea

9. Photon336

that's 1 yeah what else?

10. anonymous

|dw:1443476221196:dw|

11. Photon336

I believe for this we re-write 8, as 2^3 because 2x2x2 =8 |dw:1443476305770:dw|

12. Photon336

and then we set them equal to each other

13. Photon336

|dw:1443476354239:dw| I think this is what we get so far, make sense? @julie1.2 ?

14. anonymous

nope

15. Photon336

we need to make sure that both bases are the same

16. anonymous

17. Photon336

ok so take a look at this ? |dw:1443476448564:dw|

18. anonymous

yea

19. Photon336

so think of this as like @julie1.2 we're trying to solve an equation, but you need to realize that in order to do this both the bases must be the same

20. anonymous

ok

21. Photon336

|dw:1443476598490:dw|

22. anonymous

yea

23. Photon336

ok good so you see why now, so the next step is we need to write 8 in terms of two? does this make sense?

24. anonymous

OH NOW I GOT IT

25. anonymous

keep going

26. Photon336

now let's work on this together

27. Photon336

ONCE WE CHANGE THE BASES SO THAT THEY ARE THE SAME, WE CAN IGNORE THEM AND SET IT UP LIKE AN ALGEBRA PROBELM" sorry for the caps just emphasizing

28. Photon336

This is why I rewrote 8 like this |dw:1443476748988:dw|

29. anonymous

ok

30. Photon336

now the bases are the same @julie1.2 so now we can solve this, |dw:1443476803613:dw|

31. anonymous

ok

32. Photon336

now check this out @julie1.2 for the remainder of this problem we can pretend that the bases aren't there and it goes like this |dw:1443476944187:dw|

33. Photon336

so now we just do algebra

34. Photon336

|dw:1443476979081:dw| so try to solve this @julie1.2 and tell me what you get

35. Photon336

36. anonymous

x=1?

37. Photon336

so @julie1.2 watch |dw:1443477204428:dw|

38. Photon336

you may have subtracted the x's correctly but you for got that on the other side the answer is 12

39. anonymous

oh ok

40. Photon336

@julie.12 I want you to plug in 12 and tell me what you get |dw:1443477329809:dw|

41. Photon336

@julie1.2 ? try this out and see

42. anonymous

i got it its 60=60 thanks!

43. Photon336

ill give you another one @julie1.2 try solving this |dw:1443477852826:dw|
