Answer:

The equation 2.5x -10.5 = 64(0.5^x) is true when x=5

Step-by-step explanation:

we need to solve the equation 2.5x -10.5 = 64(0.5^x)

We have to put the given values of x in the functions f(x) and g(x) and find their values

x f(x) = 2.5x -10.5 g(x) = 64(0.5^x)

2 2.5(2)-10.5 = -5.5 64(0.5^2) = 16

3 2.5(3) - 10.5 = -3 64(0.5^3) = 8

4 2.5(4) - 10.5 = -0.5 64(0.5^4) = 4

5 2.5(5) - 10.5 = 2 64(0.5^5) = 2

6 2.5(6) - 10.5 = 4.5 64(0.5^6) = 1

So, we need to solve the equation 2.5x -10.5 = 64(0.5^x)

This holds when x = 5 as shown in the table above.

The correct answer is 5
Solve for x by simplifying both sides of the equation, then isolating the variable.
X=5

A town's population has been growing linearly. In 2003 the population was 47,000. The population has been growing by 1200 people

blsea [12.9K]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

The population in 2003= 47000

Since the population increase by 1200 every year,

in 2004 the population will be 47000+1200

in 2005 the population will be 47000+(1200+1200) which is the same as

47000+2(1200) where 2 is 2 years after 2003,

Therefore the population x years after 2003 is 47000+x(1200).

P= 47000+1200x

b) The population at 2009 which is 6 years after 2003 will be

47000+(1200)*6=47000+7200= 54200

The population at 2009 is 54200,

A single tennis court is 75% the width of a doubles tennis court. The singles court is 27 feet wide. How wide is the doubles cou

grandymaker [24]

X = 75% * y

Where 'x' is the single tennis court width, and 'y' is the doubles tennis court width.

Plug in what we know:

27 = 75% * y

75% = 0.75

27 = 0.75 * y

27 = 0.75y

Divide 0.75 to both sides:

y = 36

So the doubles court is 36 feet wide.
