A function f(x) has solutions if we can find a value to plug in that leads to 0. In other words, there are solutions to f(x) = 0. Another term for "solution" is "root" or "x intercept"
An exponential function may cross the x axis at one point only. Though there are plenty of cases when there are no solutions at all. For instance, in the case of f(x) = (2^x) + 10
The right hand side will never be equal to zero no matter what you plug in for x. The graph will never cross the axis.
To answer your question, yes it is possible to have an exponential equation to have no solutions.

<em>x = markers</em>
<em>y = colored pencils</em>
12x = y
x= 72
y = 6
Okay, so what I did was divide 78 by 12 (to find the number of colored pencils) which gave me 6.5. You can't have half a colored pencil, so I rounded the number down to get 6. To find the number of markers, I multiplied 12 and 6 <em>(12x = 6) </em>which gave me 72. To check my answer I added the two amounts, 72 + 6, which gave me 78.
The area is 28cm.
Hope this answer helps!!!
Answer:
2.871*10^9
Step-by-step explanation:
add a decimal point at the end of the number ( 2,871,000,000.) then count how many places it takes to move the decimal point between the first and second number (2.8) then write the rest of the numbers higher than "0" after, giving you the 2.871
to show that the number written is in scientific notation you add 10 to the power of the amount of times you moved the decimal place. In this case, because the decimal point was moved a total of 9 times, it would be 10 to the 9th power (10^9).
