Answer:
A) x = (-8log(6)-2log(17))/(-2log(17)+log(6))
Step-by-step explanation:
Taking the logarithm of the equation, you have ...
(x+8)log(6) = (2x-2)log(17)
Subtracting the right side from the equation gives ...
x(log(6) -2log(17)) +8log(6)+2log(17) = 0
Subtracting the constant and dividing by the coefficient of x gives ...
x = -(8log(6) +2log(17))/(log(6) -2log(17)) . . . . . matches selection A
___
You don't need to work out the whole solution to determine the correct answer choice. Once you take the initial log, you find that the x-coefficient includes a multiplier of 2log(17). This term only appears in the denominator of choice A. (The value of x will be found after dividing by the x-coefficient, so you know this must show up in the denominator of the answer.)
If the value of the baseball card increases by 3% per year then we can say that each year the value of the card may be multiplied by 103% = 1.03, thus:
Value after n years = original price*(1.03)^n
Value after 15 years = 75*(1.03)^15
= $116.85
Huh, well the sum is just adding the numbers together, so the answer is 4905.
Answer:
-40.5, 60.75, -91.125
Step-by-step explanation:
first you want to find the common difference. So just divide 12 by -8, which is -1.5 and then multiply 27 by -1.5, which is -40.5 and continue two more times.
Just do each number to they square root
