4 shelves of consecutive even numbers
x , x + 2, x + 4, x + 6

5 ft = 60 inches

x + (x + 2) + (x + 4) + (x + 6) = 60....combine like terms
4x + 12 = 60
4x = 60 - 12
4x = 48
x = 48/4
x = 12 <==== one 12 inches

x + 2 = 12 + 2 = 14 <== one is 14 inches
x + 4 = 12 + 4 = 16 <== one is 16 inches
x + 6 = 12 + 6 = 18 <== one is 18 inches

Use Natural Logarithms to solve the equation
Rus_ich [418]

Answer:

A) 0.106

Step-by-step explanation:

8e^3x + 4 = 15

Subtract 4 from each side

8e^3x + 4-4 = 15-4

8e^3x  = 11  

Divide each side by 8

8/8e^3x = 11/8

e^(3x) = 11/8

Take the natural log of each side

ln(e^(3x)) = ln(11/8)

3x = ln(11/8)

Divide by 3

3x/3 = 1/3 ln(11/8)

x = 1/3 ln(11/8)

x =.106151244

To the nearest thousandth

x = .106
