Solve 13^x+2=5 having a bit of trouble

<em>Solve: </em>13^{x} + 2 = 5

Start by isolating the x-variable as much as you can:
13^{x} = 5 - 2 = 3
13^{x} = 3

Now, if we take the log with base 13 of both sides, then the left hand side will cancel out really easily. This is based on the concept of inverse operations. For example, when we take the square of a square root, we get our initial value. This is because the two operations are inverses of each other, and basically undoes each other.

Logarithms and exponentials are the inverse operations of each other. If we want to extrapolate the power of an exponential, we take the logarithmic function of it, and vice versa.

In this case, we are saying what power of '13' will produce us with 13ˣ, and the only answer will be x itself.

log_{13}(13^{x}) = log_{13}(3)
x = log_{13}(3)

Determine the slope from the given graph below:
Greeley [361]

Step-by-step explanation:

the slope is the ratio of "y coordinate difference / x coordinate difference".

so, let's find 2 good points (I mean by that with integer coordinates). I see e.g.

(-1, -1) and (0, -7)

x changes by +1 (from -1 to 0).

y changes by -6 (from -1 to -7).

so, the slope is -6/1 = -6.

D is the right answer.

A rectangle measures 16 cm by 4 cm. It has the same area as a square. Find the perimeter of the square.
Elis [28]

ok ... in this situation... we need to find the area of the rectangle first as it is equal to the area of square .

so .... area of rectangle = l×b= 16×4

= 64 ∴area of square = 64

area of square = s×s

∴to find one side of the square ... we need to find the root of 64 = 8

∴one side = 8

now : perimeter of square : 4 × sides = 4 × 8 = 32 ║
