$18.46
Because gerome collected $9.23 and I mult. 2 times and my answer is: $18.46
I got C. 92.08
I'm not 100% sure I did this right, but I took the money gained between years nine and eleven and divided it by 2. I tried a few other ways, but none of my answers were choices.
You might have made an error the first time you solved for x. I got x = -0.5.
When you have your log base 4, the way you cancel that out is by making 4 the base on both sides, so you get 4^(log4) to reduce to 1, and you're left with:
2x + 3 = 4^(1/2) ... Simplify
2x + 3 = 2
2x = -1
x = -1/2
If you plug that back in, everything checks out. Maybe double check your use of logarithm/exponent properties?
