The riddle given by Dr. Watson to Sherlock Holmes is:

217 is to 335
896 is to 543
345 is to ____

We need to find the missing number of the third pair of the riddle. This is a ratio and proportion problem.

217/ 335 = 896/ 543 = 345 / x

The value of x is 209.

Solve 3 ^ x + 6 = 3 ^ 4
aleksklad [387]

Answer:

3.93 (approx.)

Step-by-step explanation:

3 ^ x + 6 = 3 ^ 4 can be rewritten as 3 ^ x  = 3 ^ 4  -   6, or

3^x = 81 - 6  =  75.

Then 3^x = 75, or

x*ln 3 = ln 75

Solving for x:  

x = (ln 75) / (ln 3) = 3.93 (approx.)
