Solving Exponential Equations (lacking a common base) 4^x-5=8

Mathematics

avanturin [10]3 years ago

Answer:

x= 6 1/2 or 6.5

Step-by-step explanation:

4^x-5 =8

2^2(x-5) =2^3

since the base is equal, the powers are equal

2(x-5) = 3

2x - 10 = 3

2x = 3 + 10

2x = 13

2x/2 = 13/2

x = 6 1/2 or 6.5

Answer:

6.5

Step-by-step explanation:

4^(x-5) = 8

2^[2(x-5)] = 2³

Equating powers:

2(x-5) = 3

x-5 = 3/2

x = 13/2 or 6½

The edge length of a cube is 17 cm. Identify the length of its diagonal. Round to the nearest tenth, if necessary. HELP PLEASE!!
lara31 [8.8K]

Answer:

29.4 cm

Step-by-step explanation:

The length of the space diagonal can be found to be the root of the squares of the three orthogonal edge lengths. For a cube, those edge lengths are all the same, so the diagonal length is ...

d = √(17^2 + 17^2 +17^2) = 17√3 ≈ 29.4 . . . . cm

_____

Consider a rectangular prism with edge lengths a, b, c. Then the face diagonal of the face perpendicular to edge "a" has length ...

(face diagonal)^2 = (b^2 +c^2)

and the space diagonal has length ...

(space diagonal)^2 = a^2 + (face diagonal)^2 = a^2 +b^2 +c^2

So, the length of the space diagonal is ...

space diagonal = √(a^2 +b^2 +c^2)

when the prism is a cube, these are all the same (a=b=c). This is the formula we used above.
