Answer:
x = -12,
Step-by-step explanation:
-1 + 5/4x = -16
5/4 x = -16 + 1
5/4 x = -15
x = -15 * 4/5
x = -12.
Answer:
y = 0
Step-by-step explanation:
It is always a good idea to look at the question and make some observations about it. Here, you might observe ...
- all of the bases are powers of 3: 243 = 3^5; 9 = 3^2
- y is a factor of every exponent
The latter observation is important, because it means that when y=0, every exponential expression has a value of 1. Hence y = 0 is a solution.

To solve the equation, you can write it in terms of powers of 3.
(3^5)^(-y) = (3^-5)^(3y)·(3^2)^(-2y)
3^(-5y) = 3^(-15y)·3^(-4y)
3^(-5y) = 3^(-19y)
-5y = -19y . . . . . . . . equating exponents; equivalent to taking log base 3
14y = 0 . . . . . . . . . . add 19y
y = 0 . . . . . . . . . . . one solution
______
The rules of exponents we used are ...
(a^b)(a^c) = a^(b+c)
(a^b)^c = a^(bc)
1/a^b = a^-b
3 hours because all u do is subtract 5 hours and 8 hours and
Answer:
13/4 * 5/2
Step-by-step explanation:
In the question, it says that her coach wants her to run 2 1/2 TIMES the original 3/4 she had ran. Therefore, you would want to make the fractions into improper fractions, and then multiply, which is how you would get 13/4 * 5/2.
Answer:
D. Time; amount; $2800
I hope this is right because I was looking for the answer to the same question and this is the solution I came up with.
Step-by-step explanation:
Time is the independent variable because it is the variable that is changed.
The Amount (dollars) is the dependent variable because it is effected by the independent variable.
