Answer:
you turn them into improper fractions
5/3 divided by 10/9
You never divide fractions, so you times by the reciprocal
5/3*9/10= 45/30
3/2
Step-by-step explanation:
Answer:
364 calories
Step-by-step explanation:
1/2 of 240=120 calories
fruit platter =210 calories
1/3 of 102=34
120+210+34=364 calories
Answer:
use logarithms
Step-by-step explanation:
Taking the logarithm of an expression with a variable in the exponent makes the exponent become a coefficient of the logarithm of the base.

You will note that this approach works well enough for ...
a^(x+3) = b^(x-6) . . . . . . . . . . . variables in the exponents
(x+3)log(a) = (x-6)log(b) . . . . . a linear equation after taking logs
but doesn't do anything to help you solve ...
x +3 = b^(x -6)
There is no algebraic way to solve equations that are a mix of polynomial and exponential functions.

Some functions have been defined to help in certain situations. For example, the "product log" function (or its inverse) can be used to solve a certain class of equations with variables in the exponent. However, these functions and their use are not normally studied in algebra courses.
In any event, I find a graphing calculator to be an extremely useful tool for solving exponential equations.
