I agree with majo! I’d tell you a similar way so it’s best to just go ahead and give them all the credit since they got here first haha..

Answer:

D. x = 3

Step-by-step explanation:

$\frac{1}{2} ^{x-4}$ - 3 = $4^{x-3}$ - 2

First, convert $4^{x-3}$ to base 2:

$4^{x-3}$ = $(2^{2})^{x-3}$

$\frac{1}{2} ^{x-4}$ - 3 = $(2^{2})^{x-3}$ - 2

Next, convert $\frac{1}{2} ^{x-4}$ to base 2:

$\frac{1}{2} ^{x-4}$ = $(2^{-1})^{x-4}$

$(2^{-1})^{x-4}$ - 3 = $(2^{2})^{x-3}$ - 2

Apply exponent rule: $(a^{b})^{c}$ = $a^{bc}$ :

$(2^{-1})^{x-4}$ = $2^{-1*(x-4)}$

$2^{-1*(x-4)}$ - 3 = $(2^{2})^{x-3}$ - 2

Apply exponent rule: $(a^{b})^{c}$ = $a^{bc}$ :

$(2^{2})^{x-3}$ = $2^{2(x-3)}$

$2^{-1*(x-4)}$ - 3 = $2^{2(x-3)}$ - 2

Apply exponent rule: $a^{b+c}$ = $a^{b}$ $a^{c}$ :

$2^{-1(x-4)}$ = $2^{-1x}$ * $2^{4}$ , $2^{2(x-3)}$ = $2^{2x}$ * $2^{-6}$

$2^{-1 * x}$ * $2^{4}$ - 3 = $2^{2x}$ * $2^{-6}$ - 2

Apply exponent rule: $(a^{b})^{c}$ = $a^{bc}$ :

$2^{-1x}$ = $(2^{x})^{-1}$ , $2^{2x}$ = $(2^{x})^{2}$

$(2^{x})^{-1}$ * $2^{4}$ - 3 = $(2^{x})^{2}$ * $2^{-6}$ - 2

Rewrite the equation with $2^{x} = u$ :

$(u)^{-1}$ * $2^{4}$ - 3 = $(u)^{2}$ * $2^{-6}$ - 2

Solve $u^{-1}$ * $2^{4}$ - 3 = $u^{2}$ * $2^{-6}$ - 2:

$u^{-1}$ * $2^{4}$ - 3 = $u^{2}$ * $2^{-6}$ - 2

Refine:

$\frac{16}{u}$ - 3 = $\frac{1}{64}$ $u^{2}$ - 2

Add 3 to both sides:

$\frac{16}{u}$ - 3 + 3 = $\frac{1}{64}$ $u^{2}$ - 2 + 3

Simplify:

$\frac{16}{u}$ = $\frac{1}{64}$ $u^{2}$ + 1

Multiply by the Least Common Multiplier (64u):

$\frac{16}{u}$ * 64u = $\frac{1}{64}$ $u^{2}$ + 1 * 64u

Simplify:

$\frac{16}{u}$ * 64u = $\frac{1}{64}$ $u^{2}$ + 1 * 64u

Simplify $\frac{16}{u}$ * 64u:

1024

Simplify $\frac{1}{64}$ $u^{2}$ * 64u:

$u^{3}$

Substitute:

1024 = $u^{3}$ + 64u

Solve for u:

u = 8

Substitute back u = $2^{x}$ :

8 = $2^{x}$

Solve for x:

x = 3

Write out a equation of a line which has a slope of 2

butalik [34]

Answer:

There are many lines with slopes of 2. When writing them, they simply need to be y = 2x + b, with which b can be any number.

Step-by-step explanation:

We know this because slope intercept form is y = mx + b, in which m is the slope of the equation.

A pencil case with a cylinder shape with diameter= 10 cm

Mila [183]

Answer:

length of the longest pencil that can fit must be less than 13cm

Step-by-step explanation:

To get the longest pencil that fit the case, we will use the pythagoras theorem;

diameter = 10cm

radius = 10/2

radius = 5cm

Height = 12cm

Get the length of the longest side

l² = r²+h²

l² = 5²+12²

l² = 25 + 144

l² = 169

l = √169

l = 13cm

Hence the length of the longest pencil that can fit must be less than 13cm
