If = 1 and a > 0, find the value of

Some factoring lets us write

Then

Taking the cube root to solve for , we find

so ultimately

The value of the given expression is    1 - 1 = 0

Step-by-step explanation:

8a^{3b} = 1   can be rewritten as (8a³)^b = 1 = (8a³)^0, which indicates that b = 0.  If b= 0, then 2b = 2(0) = 0.

Then a^(2b) = a^0 = 1, and 1/a^b = 1/1 = 1.

Thus, the value of the given expression is    1 - 1 = 0

well my understanding of this question is they want you to use the y=14.1x -2.3 and put the coordinates they gave you onto the line segment of   y=14.1x -2.3
