8.50x+100=308.25
subtract 100 from both sides
8.5x = 208.25
divide 8.5 from both sides
x= 24.5 hours worked

Fifteen more than twice the hours Carla worked last week is the same as three times the hours she worked this week decreased by

lapo4ka [179]

2x-15=3(x-15)
2x-15=3x-45
2x+30=3x
30=x

Let's check this work!

2(30)-15=3(30-15)
60-15=3(15)
45=45

She worked 45 hours each week

*the reason it is 2x-15 and not 15+2x is because "more than" is considered a "turn around word" meaning it is the opposite

Alona [7]

Answer:

$\large\boxed{\ln\sqrt[3]{e^4}=\dfrac{4}{3}}$

Step-by-step explanation:

$\text{Use}\\\\\sqrt[n]{a^m}=a^\frac{m}{n}\\\\\ln a^n=n\ln a\\\\\ln e=1\\-----------\\\\\ln\sqrt[3]{e^4}=\ln e^\frac{4}{3}=\dfrac{4}{3}\ln e=\dfrac{4}{3}\cdot1=\dfrac{4}{3}$

What are the zeros of (x-2)(x^2-9)

WARRIOR [948]

$(x-2)(x^2-9)=0\iff x-2=0\ or\ x^2-9=0\\\\x-2=0\ \ \ \ |add\ 2\ to\ both\ sides\\\\\boxed{x=2}\\\\x^2-9=0\ \ \ \ |add\ 9\ to\ both\ sides\\\\x^2=9\iff x=\pm\sqrt9\to \boxed{x=-3\ or\ x=3}\\\\Answer:\boxed{x=-3\ or\ x=2\ or\ x=3}$
