Answer:
x = 2
Step-by-step explanation:
Taking antilogs, you have ...
2³ × 8 = (4x)²
64 = 16x²
x = √(64/16) = √4
x = 2 . . . . . . . . (the negative square root is not a solution)
___
You can also work more directly with the logs, if you like.
3·ln(2) +ln(2³) = 2ln(2²x) . . . . . . . . . . . write 4 and 8 as powers of 2
3·ln(2) +3·ln(2) = 2(2·ln(2) +ln(x)) . . . . use rules of logs to move exponents
6·ln(2) = 4·ln(2) +2·ln(x) . . . . . . . . . . . . simplify
2·ln(2) = 2·ln(x) . . . . . . . . . . . subtract 4ln(2)
ln(2) = ln(x) . . . . . . . . . . . . . . divide by 2
2 = x . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . take the antilogs

Answer:
A = 48, and B = 52
Step-by-step explanation:
Simplify 8 = 2 hours to 4 = 1 hour, then multiply 4 times 12 to get the answer to a. The answer to b would be multiplying 4 times 13.
1/2
All you need to do is either multiply or divide the left side and the right side with the same number
