Kala will use 13.2 gallons of gas to drive a distance of 286 miles.
The answer is (x + 6)(5x - 1).
5x² + 29x - 6 = 5x² + 30x - x - 6 =
= (5x · x + 5x · 6) - (x + 6) =
= 5x(x + 6) - 1(x + 6) =
= (x + 6)(5x - 1)
Step-by-step explanation:
2^(2x) - 5(2^x) = -4
(2^x)^2 - 5(2^x) = -4
Substitute 2^x = z --> x = ln(z)/ln(2)
z^2 - 5z = -4
z^2 - 5z + 4 = 0
(z - 1)(z - 4) = 0
z = 1 --> x = ln(1)/ln(2) = 0
z = 4 --> x = ln(4)/ln(2) = 2
