Answer:

Below.

The multiplicative inverse is basically the opposite reciprocal.

In this case, it is 16

$16 = 4^2$

Answer:

A = $ 4188.38

Step-by-step explanation:

A= $2500

r = 3.5% = 0.035

t = 15years

n = 1

$A = P(1 + r)^t$

$= 2500 ( 1 + 0.035)^{15}\\\\= 2500 (1.67535)\\\\= \$ 4188.38$

Solve for X: 2^3x + 1 = 2^10 please look at photo and give detailed steps!! thank you

mel-nik [20]

Step-by-step explanation:

since the bases are the same all you have to do is just get the powers of both bases which is 3x + 1 and 10

you're then going to equate 3 x + 1 to 10 and then you have to make +1 cross to the other side making it become -1

you then can subtract 1 from 10 leaving you with 9

and at the LHS we have 3x

we are gonna get rid of the three by dividing it into itself and the 9 at the RHS then X = 3
