Each step subtracts 3 from the previous number.
14 - 3 = 11
11 - 3 = 8
The sequence will continue:
8 - 3 = 5
5 - 3 = 2
2 - 3 = -1
Etc.
14, 11, 8, 5, 2, -1...
<span> -21.8-(-18.3) (2 negative signs become positive)
=</span><span> -21.8 + 18.3
= - 3.5
Answer
- 3.5</span>
You are trying so solve
<span><span>3^x</span>=8</span>
and since 8 is not an integral power of x you need a calculator.
it is <span><span>ln(8)/</span><span>ln(3)</span></span>
or
<span><span><span>log(8)/</span><span>log(3)</span></span></span>
The answer is .9
