What are the values of a and b in the equation (4 x Superscript a Baseline) Superscript b Baseline = StartFraction 256 Over x Superscript 8 EndFraction?
a = 2, b = 4
a = negative 2, b = 4
a = negative 2, b = negative 4
a = 2, b = negative 4

a = negative 2, b = 4

Step-by-step explanation:

We want to find the value of a and b in the equation:

We rewrite the RHS to get:

We now compare to have a=-2 and b=4

take the top number and divide it by a the bottom number

step-by-step explanation:

1/2 1 divied by 2 = .5

it is a. 4.2 because 7.6-3.4 gets the remaining length of 4.2. i might be wrong but i am pretty sure this is the answer.
