Answer: hope this helps I guess?
Step-by-step explanation:
-3x/4 + 9/4 = (1/2)^x + 1
-3x/4 - 2^-x = -5/4
(Using log rules)
㏑|-3x/4| - ㏑|2^-x| = ㏑|-5/4|
㏑|3x/4| - x㏑|2| = ㏑|5/4|
e^㏑|3x/4| - e^㏑|2|x = e^㏑|5/4|
|3x/4| - 2x = 5/4
|3x| - 8x = 5
|3x-8x| = 5
|-5x| = 5
|5x| = 5
x=1, -1
HOW TO SOLVE:
1) use x as a variable
2) the starting equation is:
4x + 3x + 5x = 18
3) add all the like terms on the left side of the equation:
12x = 18
4) Divide by 12 on both sides:
x=1.5
5) Find the lengths of the sides:
- 4x = 4(1.5) = 6
- 3x = 3(1.5) = 4.5
- 5x = 5(1.5) = 7.5
SO, the lengths of the sides of this triangle are: 6, 4.5, and 7.5
