Rewrite the expressions in each pair so that they have the same base. c) (1 /2)^2x and (1/ 4)^x - 1

Respuesta :

I'm not completely sure but this is what I would do.
evaluate (1/ 4)^x - 1 as is. But change the (1 /2)^2x to (2/4)^2x. This way both fractions have the same denominator and in this sense, the same base. The 2/4 base still evaluates into 1/2 so nothing, mathematically, is being broken here.
