Answer:

−29

Step-by-step explanation:

2/5(2x − 12) = −28

Multiply each side by 5/2 to clear the fraction

5/2*2/5(2x − 12) = −28*5/2

2x-12 = -70

Add 12 to each side

2x-12+12 = -70+12

2x = -58

Divide by 2

2x/2 = -58/2

x = -29

How do you solve this

AlladinOne [14]

Answer:

domain: all terms are defined for <em>all real numbers</em>
solution: x = 6

Step-by-step explanation:

Rewrite the equation as a single exponential. After taking the log, the solution becomes obvious.

$5^{x-2}-7^{x-3}=7^{x-5}+11\cdot 5^{x-4}\\\\5^{x-2}-11\cdot 5^{x-4}=7^{x-3}+7^{x-5}\\\\5^{x-2}(1-11\cdot 5^{-2})=7^{x-3}(1+7^{-2})\\\\5^{x-2}\dfrac{14}{25}=7^{x-3}\dfrac{50}{49}\\\\1=\dfrac{2\cdot 7^{x-3}5^4}{2\cdot 5^{x-2}7^3}=\left(\dfrac{7}{5}\right)^{x-6}\\\\0=(x-6)\log(1.4)\\\\x=6$
