$\bf 5^{x+3}=\cfrac{1}{125}\implies 5^{x+3}=\cfrac{1}{5^3}\implies 5^{x+3}=5^{-3}

\textit{because the bases are the same, the exponents must also be the same}
\\\\\\
x+3=-3\implies \boxed{x=-6}\\\\
-------------------------------\\\\
3^x=4^{2x}\implies log(3^x)=log(4^{2x})\implies xlog(3)=(2x)log(4)
\\\\\\
\cfrac{x}{2x}=\cfrac{log(4)}{log(3)}\implies \cfrac{1}{x}=\cfrac{log(4)}{log(3)}\implies \cfrac{log(3)}{log(4)}=x\implies \boxed{0.79248125\approx x}$

The equation for the pH of a substance is pH = –log[H+], where H+ is the concentration of hydrogen ions. Which equation models t

Zanzabum

Answer: [H+] = 10^-7.2

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that the PH of the solution = 7.2

Using the formula pH = –log[H+]. To get the H+ concentration from the pH, raise both sides by the base of 10. Then we have

10^ -pH = H+. with pH of 7.2,

Thus the answer to this problem is

[H+] = 10^-7.2

Answer:

Thus, option A is correct.

Explanation:

<u>match the proportions</u>

$240,000 → 60%

x → 100%

<u>set up a equation:</u>

$\sf \dfrac{60}{100} = \dfrac{240,000}{x}$

$\sf x = \$400,000$
