Mathematics

Tanzania [10]3 years ago
7 0

Answer:

  b = -1

Step-by-step explanation:

Your equation is ...

  (5^3)b -1 = 5^b -3

This is a mix of exponential and linear terms, and cannot be solved algebraically.

___

We suspect you might mean ...

  5^(3b -1) = 5^(b -3)

We can equate the exponents to find a value for b:

  3b -1 = b -3

  2b = -2 . . . . add 1-b to both sides

  b = -1 . . . . . . divide by 2

Citrus2011 [14]
Anything times 1 is equal to itself. Anything times less than one is less than itself. Anything times greater than one is greater than itself. Therefore, 125 times .9, which is less than one, is less than 125

A local bakery has a daily operating cost of $1800 plus a cost of $10 per cake
Delicious77 [7]

Answer:

B. 15c > 1,800 + 10c

Step-by-step explanation:

Profit=Total revenue - total cost

Profit is achieved:

when total revenue is greater than total cost

TR>TC

Or

When total cost is less than total revenue

TC<TR

From the question

Total cost=1800+10c

Total revenue=15c

Profit=TR>TC or TC<TR

15c>1800+10c

Or

1800+10c<15c

Option B. 15c > 1,800 + 10c satisfies the condition that Profit=TR>TC
