Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
Method 1: Taking the log of both sides...
So take the log of both sides...
5^(2x + 1) = 25
log 5^(2x + 1) = log 25 <-- use property: log (a^x) = x log a...
(2x + 1)log 5 = log 25 <-- distribute log 5 inside the brackets...
(2x)log 5 + log 5 = log 25 <-- subtract log 5 both sides of the equation...
(2x)log 5 + log 5 - log 5 = log 25 - log 5
(2x)log 5 = log (25/5) <-- use property: log a - log b = log (a/b)
(2x)log 5 = log 5 <-- divide both sides by log 5
(2x)log 5 / log 5 = log 5 / log 5 <--- this equals 1..
2x = 1
x=1/2
Method 2
5^(2x+1)=5^2
2x+1=2
2x=1
x=1/2
Answer:
Distance travelled by Monarch butterfly = 2000 miles
Distance travelled by desert locust = 2800
Distance travelled by pink-spotted hawk moth= 7800 miles
Step-by-step explanation:
Let the distance travelled by Monarch butterfly be "X" miles
Distance travelled by desert locust is equal to X + 800 miles
Distance travelled by pink-spotted hawk moth is equal to 4X -200 miles
The total distance travelled by the three is equal to 12600 miles

Distance travelled by Monarch butterfly = 2000 miles
Distance travelled by desert locust = 2000 + 800 = 2800
Distance travelled by pink-spotted hawk moth = 4 * 2000 -200 = 7800 miles
Slope = y2 - y1 / x2 - x1
= 8-4 / 3-2
= 4 / 1
= 4
You divide -15 on both sides to keep the x alone
-240/ -15=16
A negative divided by a negative is a positive so x=16
