the power (X/2 for X2 and X/3 for X3). So if the formula for the gradient is Height/Width then, by replacing the height with AXN and the width with X/N we get XN/(X/N). We can simplify this by multiplying both sides by N to get ANXN/X and we can simplify this by dividing both sides by X to get ANXN-1. I shall now you this formula in the graph Y=X4 to test it.
to know what is best and to realize what have to be done, and the younger you are the harder it is.

Beyond Pythagoras Math Investigation Pythagoras Theorem: Pythagoras states that in any right angled triangle of sides 'a', 'b' and 'c' (a being the shortest side, c the hypotenuse): a2 + b2 = c2 [IMAGE] E.g. 1. 32 + 42= 52 9 + 16 = 25 52 = 25 2. 52+ 122= 132 3. 72 + 242 = 252 25 + 144 = 169 49 + 576 = 625 132 = 169 252 = 625 All the above examples are using an odd number for 'a'. It can however, work with an even number. E.g. 1. 102 + 242= 262 100 + 576 =
