Log(2)/log(1.064) ≈ 11.17 . . . . hours

_____
The population can be given by
  p(n) = p₀×1.064ⁿ . . . . where n is the number of hours
You want to find n whe p(n) = 2*p₀.
  2p₀ = p₀×1.064ⁿ . . . . . . . . . . . . substitute the given information
  2 = 1.064ⁿ . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . divide by p₀
  log(2) = n×log(1.064) . . . . . . . . take logs to make it a linear equation
  log(2)/log(1.064) = n . . . . . . . . divide by the coefficient of n

3x-x-5=2(x+2) -9<br> please help
irga5000 [103]

Answer:

infinite solutions

Step-by-step explanation:

Simplify 3x-x-53x−x−5 to 2x-52x−5.

2x-5=2(x+2)-92x−5=2(x+2)−9

2 Expand.

2x-5=2x+4-92x−5=2x+4−9

3 Simplify 2x+4-92x+4−9 to 2x-52x−5.

2x-5=2x-52x−5=2x−5

4 Since both sides equal, there are infinitely many solutions.
