The correct question is
What is the value of x in the following equation (1/5)^x=5^8
Applying logarithms both members
log(1/5)^x=log(5^8)
x*log(1/5)=8*log(5)
x=8*log(5)/log(1/5)
we know that
log (1/5)----> log (1)-log (5)----> 0-log (5)-----> -log (5)
so
x=8*log(5)/-log (5)------> x=-8
the answer is
-8
The mean is the average of the numbers. You add up all numbers and divide the result for how many numbers there are (14)
6+2+59+12+11+9+9+54+54+46+2+32+43+11 = 350
Mean = 350/14 = 25
Answer:
y = -3x - 1
Step-by-step explanation:
The slope intercept form of the equation of a line is:
y = mx + b
where m is the slope, and b is the y-intercept.
First, we find the slope of the line using the two given points.
m = slope = (y2 - y1)/(x2 - x1) = (2 - (-7))/(-1 - 2) = (2 + 7)/(-3) = 9/(-3) = -3
Now we plug in the slope we found into the equation above.
y = -3x + b
We need to find the value of b, the y-intercept. We use the coordinates of one of the given points for x and y, and we solve for b. Let's use point (2, -7), so x = 2, and y = -7.
y = -3x + b
-7 = -3(2) + b
-7 = -6 + b
Add 6 to both sides.
-1 = b
Now we plug in -1 for b.
y = -3x - 1
