Hello,
y=2^(-x)
y=2^(2x)+3
==>2^(2x)+3=1/2^x
==>2^(3x)+3*2^x-1=0 (1)
Let's assume u=2^x
(1)==>u^3+3*u-1=0
which as 3 roots
u=0.322185354626 or
u = -0.161092677313 + i1.754380959784 or
u = -0.161092677313 - i1.754380959784.
Let's take the real solution
0.322185354626=2^x
==>x=ln(0.322185354626) / ln(2)
x=-1,6340371790199...
an other way is
f(x)=2^(3x)+3*2^x-1
f(-2)=1/64+3/4-1=-15/64 <0
f(-1)=1/8+1-1=1/8>0
==> there is a solution betheen -2<x<-1
There is no graph for us to see
The answer is C because you just have to plug in the given point to the different answers.
-29 I took this exact question
Answer:
When number of games downloaded is at least 3
Step-by-step explanation:
Let x = number of games downloaded
Members = 50 + 2x
Non members = 20x
50 + 2x = 20x
50 = 20x - 2x
50 = 18x
x = 50/18
x = 2.78
At x = 2.78, both members and non members are paying the same amount
For members to make profits, the value of x must be greater than 2.78
Approximately x = 3
Check:
Members = 50 + 2x
= 50 + 2(3)
= 50 + 6
= 56
Non members = 20x
= 20(3)
= 60
