Answer:
Correct answer is f(x) = (625^x)^1/4
Step-by-step explanation:
We know that
625 = 5^4
This means
f(x) = (625^x)^1/4
f(x) = (5^(4x))^1/4
But we know this is equivalent to
f(x) = (5^(4x*(1/4))) =
= 5^(x)
Correct answer is f(x) = (625^x)^1/4
2x+4y=12
y=x-3
Since we know what y equals, we can plug this into the first equation:
2x+4(x-3)=12
We can then distribute:
2x+4x-12=12
And solve for x:
6x-12=12
6x=24
x=4
We can then plug x into the second equation and find y:
y=x-3
y=4-3
y=1
Therefore x=4 and y=1
5% tax of 135.69
Multiply 135.69 * .05 = 6.7845
5% tax of 135.69 is 6.78
135.69+6.78=142.47
14*3=42
142.47 + 42 = 184.47
Gary will pay $184.47 in all.
Hope this helps you! (:
