First you need to make both bases the same:
Lets remove the ^p and ^4
To make the base of 42 equal to 41, you would have 41^x = 41
X - ln(42) / ln(41) = 1.00648904
Now you have 41^1.00648904(p) = 41^4
Now the bases are equal so we need to set the exponents to equal:
1.00648904(p) = 4
Divide both sides by 1.00648904 to solve for P
P = 4 / 1.00648904
P = 3.97421114
Answer:
To find the area of a rectangle we use the formula:
L x W
Replace those with it's actual value
4 3/4 x 3
19/4 x 3 = 14.25, 14 square inches is the area
This isn't enough information to answer the question. We need to know if he mowed the same lawn 5 times, 5 different lawns, and so on.
If he mowed one lawn 5 times, that would be $150 but if he mowed lawns for different people then the answer is None of the choices are correct because you can eliminate the first two choices for being too low for any possible scenario.
