Answer:

8 and 25

Step-by-step explanation:

We can set up an equation to help solve this problem.

Let x represent the smaller number

x+(x+17)=33

2x+17=33

2x=16

x=8

The smaller number is 8

Add 17 to 8

The larger number is 25

What is the value of x in the equation below?
belka [17]
remember
ln(a^b)=bln(a)
ln(e)=1
so
ln(e^x)=xln(e)=x


1+2e^{x+1}=9
minus \space\ 1 \space\ both \space\ sides
2e^{x+1}=8
divide \space\ both \space\ sides \space\ by \space\ 2
e^{x+1}=4
take \space\ ln \space\ of \space\ both \space\ sides
ln(e^{x+1})=ln(4)
(x+1)ln(e)=ln(4)
x+1=ln(4)
minus \space\ 1 \space\ from \space\ both \space\ sides
x=ln(4)-1
answer \space\ is \space\ C=ln(4)-1

What is 1 divided by 5^-2? Please give clear explanation. thanks.
Pani-rosa [81]
1 / 5^-2

First, let's work out the denominator.
5^ -2 = 1/25. When an exponent is negative, it means to put a 1 over the product. Like we did earlier.

Now we have 1 / (1/25). 

1 / (1/25)
Divide 1 by 25.
1 / 0.04
Divide 1 by 0.04
25

The answer is 25!

Now if you make this answer as the Brainliest I will appreciate it very much. And for a limited time answer, and no scam or joke,  you will receive your very own flying space ship! No scam at all! Try it. Just press the mark as Brainliest and watch your spaceship land in your backyard! But seriously I will appreciate it if you mark this answer as the Brainliest.

What are the coordinates of vertex A of square ABCD?
bonufazy [111]
ABCD is a square . if the coordinates of three of its vertices are A(-1,2a), B(a,2a), C(a,0), find the coordinates of D. BC is obviously 2a (it's a vertical line) then AB must be 2a (notice AB is horizontal) so BC = AC because it is a square 2a = a+1 a=1
