- The best method to test Zoe's claim is an observational study, as with this method it is possible to observe if the claim presents some truth to it. Observational studies are often used in testing claims like Zoe's as they allowed to have a great access to the variable that are behind a claim of that type, and so they are also more accessible.

- The set up I would use is an observational study of a great number of people, over a long period of time, that have to have kale for breakfast every day, with a measurement of their cholesterol over the time. the great number and the long period of study assured that the variable subject of study is statistically represented in an optimal way.

5^(2x-1)+5^(x+1)=250 how do you solve? thank you

zepelin [54]

Answer:

x = 2

Step-by-step explanation:

Exponential Equations

Solve:

$5^{2x-1}+5^{x+1}=250$

Separate each exponential:

$5^{2x}5^{-1}+5^{x}5^{1}=250$

Operating:

$\displaystyle \frac{5^{2x}}{5}+5^{x}5=250$

Multiplying by 5:

$5^{2x}+25\cdot5^x=1250$

Rearranging:

$5^{2x}+25\cdot5^x-1250=0$

Recall that:

$5^{2x}=(5^{x})^2$

$(5^{x})^2+25\cdot5^x-1250=0$

Calling

$y=5^{x}:$

$y^2+25y-1250=0$

Factoring:

$(y-25)(y+50)=0$

There are two possible solutions:

y=25

y=-50

Since

$y=5^{x}$

y cannot be negative, thus:

$5^{x}=25=5^2$

The solution is:

x = 2

Help quick PLEASE FFTKUKUDIKSSK

valentinak56 [21]

4x-4>20

Step 1: Add four to both sides
4x-4+4>20+4
4x>24
Step 2: Divide both sides by 4
4x divided by 4 and 24 divided by 4
Answer: x>6
Kahal accidentally subtracted instead of adding. He made a mistake in step 2.
