Kalon and his friend Marna own a chimney sweep service company. Working together, they can clean a chimney in 1 5/7 hours. If it
QveST [7]
The amount of work done by Kalon in an hour is equal to 1/4. This is based on his time to finish the job. Letting x be the number of hours Marna can finish the job alone will let her finish 1/x of the job in an hour. If their rates are added together and multiplied by the number of hours they worked together, the product should be one whole job.
                          (1/4 + 1/x)(1 5/7) = 1
The value of x is 3. Therefore, it will take 3 hours for Marna to clean the chimney alone.

Solve 5-3^x=-40 round to the nearest ten-thousandth
solong [7]

5-3^x = -40

 subtract 5 from each side to get

-3^x=-45

 divide both sides by -1 to make them positive

3^x = 45

need to do the natural logarithm on both sides to remove the variable from the exponent

 so ln(3^x) = ln(45)

 use logarithm rule to move x out

x ln (3) = ln(45)

 dive each term by ln(3) then simplify to get

ln(3)/ln(45)

 so x = ln(3)/ln(45) which calculates out to 3.46497352

round off to ten thousandths is 3.4650
