For each sentence below, find the value of x that makes each sentence true.

vitfil [10]

ANSWER

1. $x=\frac{1}{2}$

2. $x=1$

QUESTION 1

The first sentence is $(5^{\frac{1}{5}})^5=25^x$ .

Recall that;

$(a^m)^n=a^{mn}$

We simplify the left hand side by applying this property to get;

$5^{\frac{1}{5}\times 5}=25^x$ .

$\Rightarrow 5^{1}=25^x$ .

We now rewrite the right hand side too in an index form to obtain;

$\Rightarrow 5^{1}=5^{2x}$

We now equate the exponents to get;

$\Rightarrow 1=2x$ .

$\Rightarrow \frac{1}{2}=x$

$\Rightarrow x=\frac{1}{2}$ .

QUESTION 2

The second sentence is $(8^{\frac{1}{3}})^2=4^x$

We simplify the left hand side first to get;

$(2^{3\times \frac{1}{3}})^2=4^x$

$2^2=4^x$

We now rewrite the left hand side too in index form to obtain;

$2^2=2^{2x}$

We equate the exponents to get;

$2=2x$

This implies that;

$1=x$

or

$x=1$

Select the equation that represents the line that passes through (1,7) and is parallel to y = 5x + 4

VladimirAG [237]

Answer:

a

Step-by-step explanation:

it has to have to same slope as the first equation so you have y=5x+b then what you do is plug in the points and solve for b. which gives you 2. so your final equation is y=5x+2

7=5+b

-5 -5

2=b

Let C, S and H be the diameters of cell, sand and hair

Diameter of a cell: $C=1 \cdot 10^{-5}m$

Diameter of a grain of sand: $S=2 \cdot10^{-4}m$

Part A:

$H=0.000025=2.5 \cdot 10^{-5}$ meters, because it takes 5 movements right of the decimal dot, until there is only one digit to its left.

Part B:

we are comparing $S=2 \cdot10^{-4} m$ to $C=1 \cdot10^{-5} m$ ,

$\frac{S}{C}= \frac{2 \cdot 10^{-4}}{1 \cdot 10^{-5}}=\frac{20 \cdot 10^{-5}}{1 \cdot 10^{-5}}=20$

thus S is 20 times larger than C

Part C

$1m=1 \cdot10^9nm$

thus,

$H=2.5 \cdot 10^{-5}m=2.5 \cdot 10^{-5} \cdot 1 \cdot 10^9nm=2.5 \cdot 10^{-5+9}=2.5\cdot10^4nm$

Part D.

$1m=1\cdot 10^9nm\\\\1nm=\displaystyle{ \frac{1m}{10^9}=1\cdot 10^{-9}m}$

thus 300 nm are written in meters as follows:

$300nm= 300\cdot 1\cdot 10^{-9}m=3\cdot 10^2 \cdot 10^{-9}m=3\cdot 10^{-7}m$

Richie spent $120 on 12 rose bushes and 2 gardenias, while Jim spent it $150 on 10 rose bushes and 10 gardenias. What is the cos

Basile [38]

With the given information, we can create several equations:

120 = 12x + 2y
150 = 10x + 10y

With x being the number of rose bushes, and y being the number of gardenias.

To find the values of the variables, we can use two methods: Substitution or Elimination

For this case, let us use elimination. To begin, let's be clear that we are going to be adding these equations together. Therefore, in order to get the value of one variable, we must cancel one of them out - it could be x or y, it doesn't matter which one you decide to cancel out. Let's cancel the x out:

We first need to multiply the equations by numbers that would cause the x's to cancel out - and this can be done as follows:

-10(120 = 12x + 2y)
12(150 = 10x + 10y) => Notice how one of these is negative

Multiply out:

-1200 = -120x - 20y
+ 1800 = 120x + 120y => Add these two equations together
---------------------------------
600 = 100y

Now we can solve for y:

y = 6

With this value of y known, we can then pick an equation from the beginning of the question, and plug y in to solve for x:

120 = 12x + 2y => 120 = 12x + 2(6)

Now we can solve for x:

120 = 12x + 12 => 108 = 12x

x = 9

So now we know that x = 9, and y = 6.

With rose bushes being x, we now know that the cost of 1 rose bush is $9.
With gardenias being y, we now know that the cost of 1 gardenia is $6.
