Answer:

m = 2, c = - 1

Step-by-step explanation:

Using the point (1, 1), substitute x = 1, y = 1 into the equation

m + c = 1 → (1)

Using the point (2, 3), substitute x = 2, y = 3 into the equation

2m + c = 3 → (2)

Subtract (1) from (2) to eliminate c

(2m - m) + (c - c) = (3 - 1) ← simplify

m = 2

Substitute m = 2 into (1) for corresponding value of c

2 + c = 1 ( subtract 2 from both sides )

c = - 1

Solve log (x + 1) = –x2 + 10 by graphing
Anit [1.1K]
 Your answer would be x = 3.0645

CHECK
log (3.0645 + 1) ?=? -(3.0645)2 + 10
log 4.0645 ?=? -9.3912 + 10
0.609 ?=? 0.609

Hope this helps!

So in short your answer is x = 3.0645

Alan bought a suit on sale for $208. This price was 35% less than the original price.
algol [13]

Answer:

280.8
