Answer:

x = -2.5

Step-by-step explanation:

3^(4x-5)=(1/27)^(2x+10)

We are working with exponents

We can rewrite 1/27 as 3^-3

3^(4x-5)=(3^-3)^(2x+10)

Now we know that a^b^c = a^(b*c)

3^(4x-5)=3^( -3* (2x+10))

3^(4x-5)=3^( -6x -30)

The bases are the same so the exponents must be the same

4x-5 = -6x-30

Add 6x to each side

4x-6+6x = -6x-30+6x

10x-6 = -30

Add 5 to each side

10x-5+5 = -30 +5

10x = -25

Divide by 10

10x/10 = -25/10

x = -2.5

Sushil is 6 years older than Brian. Caroline is 5 years younger than Brian. If the total of their ages is 64, how old is the you
Nadusha1986 [10]

Answer:

16 years old

Step-by-step explanation:

Let's use the letters s, b, and c for Sushil, Brian, and Caroline's ages. Sushil is the oldest, followed by Brian, and then Caroline, the youngest. From the problem description, we can set up three equations:

s = b + 6 <em>(Sushil is 6 years older than Brian)</em>

c = b - 5 <em>(Caroline is 5 years younger than Brian)</em>

s + b + c = 64 <em>(The total of their ages is 64)</em>

Since s and c are already in terms of b, we can substitute them into the last equation and solve to find Brian's age:

(b + 6) + b + (b - 5) = 64

3b + 1 = 64

3b = 63

b = 21

Now that we know Brian's age, we can simply subtract 5 to find Caroline's:

c = b - 5 = 21 - 5 = 16 years old.

Part 1
svetlana [45]

Answer:

A: This polynomial has a degree of 2 , so the equation 12x2+5x−2=0 has two or fewer roots.

B: The quadratic equation 12x2+5x−2=0 has two real solutions, x=−2/3 or x=1/4 , and therefore has two real roots.

Step-by-step explanation:

f(x) = 12x^2 + 5x - 2.

Since this is a quadratic equation, or a polynomial of second degree, one can easily conclude that this equation will have at most 2 roots. At most 2 roots mean that the function can have either 2 roots at maximum or less than 2 roots. Therefore, in the A category, 2nd option is the correct answer (This polynomial has a degree of 2 , so the equation 12x^2 + 5x − 2 = 0 has two or fewer roots).

To find the roots of f(x), set f(x) = 0. Therefore:

12x^2 + 5x - 2 = 0. Solving the question using the mid term breaking method shows that 12*2=24. The factors of 24 whose difference is 5 are 8 and 3. Therefore:

12x^2 + 8x - 3x - 2 = 0.

4x(3x + 2) -1(3x+2) = 0.

(4x-1)(3x+2) = 0.

4x-1 = 0 or 3x+2 = 0.

x = 1/4 or x = -2/3.

It can be seen that f(x) has two distinct real roots. Therefore, in the B category, 1st Option is the correct answer (The quadratic equation 12x2+5x−2=0 has two real solutions, x=−2/3 or x=1/4 , and therefore has two real roots)!!!

A sphere has center (0,0,0) and a radius of 5. Which of the following points lie on the sphere?
Colt1911 [192]
Since the sphere is located at the center and has radius 5.
Out of the following given points,
(5,5,-5) will lie on the sphere, where x and y coordinates will be positive and z coordinate will be negative.
This is because the radius of the circle is 5 units.
