Answer:
x=12
Step-by-step explanation:
(9^5)(9^7)=9^x
282429536481=9^x
<em>Step 1: Flip the equation.</em>
9^x=282429536481
<em>Step 2: Solve Exponent.</em>
9^x=282429536481
log(9^x)=log(282429536481)(Take log of both sides)
x*(log(9))=log(282429536481)
x=log(282429536481)/log(9)
x=12
After, thorough research I believe that there are 265 pine trees and 0 elm trees since decidous and semi-decidous do not grow near conifers.
The value of x when y = 14 is 8.4

<h3>How to solve variation ?</h3>
y, varies directly as x. Therefore,
y ∝ x
Therefore,
y = kx
where
- k =constant of proportionality
Therefore,
10 = 6k
k = 10 / 6
k = 5 / 3
Hence, when y = 14
y = kx
14 = 5 / 3 x
cross multiply
42 = 5x
x = 42 / 5
x = 8.4
