PLEASE HELP ASAP! I don’t recall how to do this!

Mathematics

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

For a. we start by dividing both sides by 200:

(1.05)^x=1.885

In order to solve for x, we have to get it out from its position of an exponent.  Do that by taking the natural log of both sides:

ln(1.05)^x=ln(1.885)

Applying the power rule for logs lets us now bring down the x in front of the ln:

x * ln(1.05) = ln(1.885)

Now we can divide both sides by ln(1.05) to solve for x:

x=\frac{ln(1.885)}{ln(1.05)}

Do this on your calculator to find that

x = 12.99294297

For b. we will first apply the rule for "undoing" the addition of logs by multipllying:

ln(x*x^2)=5

Simplifying gives you

ln(x^3)=5

Applying the power rule allows us to bring down the 3 in front of the ln:

3 * ln(x) = 5

Now we can divide both sides by 3 to get

ln(x)=\frac{5}{3}

Take the inverse ln by raising each side to e:

e^{ln(x)}=e^{\frac{5}{3}}

The "e" and the ln on the left undo each other, leaving you with just x; and raising e to the power or 5/3 gives you that

x = 5.29449005

For c. begin by dividing both sides by 20 to get:

\frac{1}{2}=e^{.1x}

"Undo" that e by taking the ln of both sides:

ln(.5)=ln(e^{.1x})

When the ln and the e undo each other on the right you're left with just .1x; on the left we have, from our calculators:

-.6931471806 = .1x

x = -6.931471806

Question d. is a bit more complicated than the others.  Begin by turning the base of 4 into a base of 2 so they are "like" in a sense:

(2^2)^x-6(2)^x=-8

Now we will bring over the -8 by adding:

(2^2)^x-6(2)^x+8=0

We can turn this into a quadratic of sorts and factor it, but we have to use a u substitution.  Let's let u=2^x

When we do that, we can rewrite the polynomial as

u^2-6u+8=0

This factors very nicely into u = 4 and u = 2

But don't forget the substitution that we made earlier to make this easy to factor.  Now we have to put it back in:

2^x=4,2^x=2

For the first solution, we will change the base of 4 into a 2 again like we did in the beginning:

2^2=2^x

Now that the bases are the same, we can say that

x = 2

For the second solution, we will raise the 2 on the right to a power of 1 to get:

2^x=2^1

Now that the bases are the same, we can say that

x = 1

What is the measure of JKL?
Orlov [11]

Answer:

97

Step-by-step explanation:

83 and JKL form a straight line so they add to 180 degrees

83+ JKL = 180

Subtract 180 from each side

83-83+ JKL = 180-83

JKL = 97

Answer:

The first answer choice, 4632.5

Step-by-step explanation:

At the rate of 85 feet per hour, after 5.5 hours the apprentice would have covered 467.5 square feet. Subtracting this from the total amount of 5,100 square feet, you get 4632.5, or the first answer choice. Hope this helps!
