Hello from MrBillDoesMath!

Answer:

Take you pick below! (either x 8 or x = 7.01, approx, depending how the question is interpreted)

Discussion:

Interpretation 1

If the question is 2^(x -1) = 128, then as 2^7 = 128,

x-1 = 7 so x = 8

Interpretation 2

If the question is (2^x -1) = 128, then..

2^x = 128 + 1 = 129 =>

log(2^x) = log(129) =>

xlog(2) = log(129) =>

x = log (129) / log2 = 7.01

Regards,

MrB

Caleb is making lemonade and cookies for the school bake sale. He has 10 cups of

Goryan [66]

Answer:

He can make only one batch of cookies.

Step-by-step explanation:

Just by mental math you can say he can make maximum one batch of cookies.

Total sugar = 10 cups

sugar used for lemonade = 2 cups

leftover sugar = 8 cups

For 1 batch of cookie sugar needed = 11/2

which means 5 and 1/2 cups

And he's just left with 8 cups of sugar after lemonade

8 - 5 1/2 = 2 1/2 which is not enough for 2nd batch

That means the maximum number of cookies batches is 1.

Another way to solve it by inequality:

2+Il/2 X < 10

11/2 X < 8

11X < 16

X < 1 6/11

So he can make only one batch of cookies.

Write an equation for an ellipse centered at the origin, which has foci at (0,\pm\sqrt{63})(0,± 63 )left parenthesis, 0, comma

steposvetlana [31]

Answer:

$\frac{x^{2} }{4312 } + \frac{y^{2} }{8281 }$

Step-by-step explanation:

Since the foci are at(0,±c) = (0,±63) and vertices (0,±a) = (0,±91), the major axis is the y- axis. So, we have the equation in the form (with center at the origin) $\frac{x^{2} }{b^{2} } + \frac{y^{2} }{a^{2} }$ .

We find the co-vertices b from b = ±√(a² - c²) where a = 91 and c = 63

b = ±√(a² - c²)

= ±√(91² - 63²)

= ±√(8281 - 3969)

= ±√4312

= ±14√22

So the equation is

$\frac{x^{2} }{(14\sqrt{22}) ^{2} } + \frac{y^{2} }{91^{2} } = \frac{x^{2} }{4312 } + \frac{y^{2} }{8281 }$

How do u find the perimeter of somthing

Kazeer [188]

Lets say that the length of a rectangle is 12 cm and the width is 5 cm, you would add 12+12+5+5 (as in the length on both length sides and the width on both sides) so the perimeter of this rectangle is: 34 cm
