Two number that have a sum of 45 twice the greater number is six more than 5 times the lesser number

1 answer:

3 0

The numbers will be X and Y with X being the lesser
x+y=45
2y=5x+6
now use a subtraction method to solve
x+y=45
y=45-x

2 (45-x)=5x+6
90-2x=5x+6
-7×=-84
x=12

y=45-12
y=33
so, x=12 and y=33

Solve the following exponential equations.<br> 2(4^x )+ 4^(x+1 )= 342

Cloud [144]

Answer:

x ≈ 2.91644500708

Step-by-step explanation:

The equation can be simplified to ...

2(4^x) +4(4^x) = 342

6(4^x) = 342

4^x = 57

Taking logarithms, we get ...

x = log₄(57) = log(57)/log(4)

x ≈ 2.91644500708
