Answer:
x = 2
Step-by-step explanation:
X² = 3x - 7 = 0
X² = 3x = 7
(x + 1) (x + 2) = 7
(x + 1) + x = 7 - 2
x + x = 7 - 3
2x = 4
x = 4/2
x = 2
Step-by-step answer:
The base of the exponential function is 1.29 for 7 days, as in
f(x) = 86*(1.29)^x
The new rate for days can be calculated by dividing x by 7 (where x remains the number of weeks), namely
f(x) = 86*1.29^(x/7)
Using the law of exponents, b^(x/a) = b^(x*(1/a)) = (b^(1/a))^x
we simplify by putting b=1.29, a=7 to get
f(x) = 86*(1.29^(1/7))^x
f(x) = 86*(1.037)^x since 1.29^(1/7) evaluates to 1.037
Rounding 1.037 to 1.04 we get a (VERY) approximate function
f(x) = 86 * (1.04^x)
1.04 is very approximate because 1.04^7 is supposed to get back 1.29, but it is actually 1.316, while 1.037^7 gives 1.2896, much closer to 1.29.
Answer:
x = 
Step-by-step explanation:
Given
4x + 6 = 11 ( subtract 6 from both sides )
4x = 5 ( divide both sides by 4 )
x =
= 1.25
Four oranges cost 90 cents, an orange costs 90/4 cents, which is around 22.5 cents. Multiply this by 36 to get the cost of 3 dozen oranges, so 22.5 times 36 is 810, 810 cents, or 8.10 dollars.
