First, group your like terms:
30-4.5x+36=102-7.5x-60
30+36-4.5x=102-60-7.5x
66-4.5x=42-7.5x
Second, add 7.5x on both sides:
66+3x=42
Next, subract 66 on both sides:
3x=-24
Now, divide 3 on both sides:
-24/3=-8
x=-8

Evaluate each logarithm. Do not use a calculator. Log (125)(1/25)
svetlana [45]

Answer:

-2/3

Step-by-step explanation:

Log125(1/25)=x

Raise each side to the base of 125

125^Log125(1/25)=125^x

1/25 = 125^x

Rewrite 25 as a power of 5  and 125 as a power of 5

1 / 5^2 = 5^3^x

The if power is in the denominator, we can bring it to the numerator by making it negative

5^-2 = 5^3^x

We know that a^b^c = a^(b*c)

5^-2 = 5^(3*x)

Since the bases are the same, the exponents are the same

-2 = 3x

Divide by 3

-2/3 = 3x/3

-2/3 =x
