You might have made an error the first time you solved for x. I got x = -0.5.
When you have your log base 4, the way you cancel that out is by making 4 the base on both sides, so you get 4^(log4) to reduce to 1, and you're left with:
2x + 3 = 4^(1/2) ... Simplify
2x + 3 = 2
2x = -1
x = -1/2
If you plug that back in, everything checks out. Maybe double check your use of logarithm/exponent properties?
3 / (1/8) = 3 × (8/1) = 24

Answer:
200 is 10 times as much as 20 and 1 tenth of 2,000
Step-by-step explanation:
Divide 200 by 10 and you'll get 20 and multiply it by 10 to get 2,000.
A circle is 360 degrees so 1/18 of the circle will be 20 degrees. For 5 parts the total will be 100 degrees (20*5)
