Answer:
Her answer is wrong because she the object cannot hit the ground at negative seconds. She could’ve have used other methods because she used the quadratic formula. The advantages is that it works for every situation. The disadvantages is that it takes longer. She should’ve used a different method.
Step-by-step explanation:
5^(x+7)=(1/625)^(2x-13)
We move all terms to the left:
5^(x+7)-((1/625)^(2x-13))=0
Domain of the equation: 625)^(2x-13))!=0
x∈R
We add all the numbers together, and all the variables
5^(x+7)-((+1/625)^(2x-13))=0
We multiply all the terms by the denominator
(5^(x+7))*625)^(2x+1-13))-((=0
We add all the numbers together, and all the variables
(5^(x+7))*625)^(2x-12))-((=0
We add all the numbers together, and all the variables
(5^(x+7))*625)^(2x=0
not sure if this is right :/
