Solve 3x−5 = 9:


Add 5 to both sides, to isolate 3x on the left side: 3x = 5+9 = 14


Solve this for x: x = 14/3

Answer:

<u>x = 7</u>

Step-by-step explanation:

Convert 9 to base 3

9 = 3^{2}

3^{x-5} = 3^{2}

if a^{f(x)} = a^{g(x)}, then f(x) = g(x)

x - 5 = 2

<u>x = 7</u>

A staff gauge measures the height of the water level in a river compared to the average water level. At one gauge the river is 1
Juli2301 [7.4K]

The river will not reach a level of 7 ft. after 5 hours.

A linear equation is in the form:

y = mx + b

where y, x are variables, m is the rate of change and b is the initial value of y.

Let y represent the height of the water level after x hours.

Since the  river is 1 ft below its average water level and  begins to rise by a constant rate of 1.5 ft per hour. Hence:

b = -1, m = 1.5. The equation becomes:

y = 1.5x - 1

To reach a level of 7 ft. That is y = 7:

7 = 1.5x - 1

1.5x = 8

x = 5.3 hours

The river will not reach a level of 7 ft. after 5 hours.

50 people plan to attend the dance and each person will eat 2 slices of cake. If each cake contains 20 slices, how many cakes sh
Naya [18.7K]

Answer:

5

Step-by-step explanation:

You <em>multiply</em> the number of people by the number of each slices each person gets. Which is 100; 50x2.

Each cake has 20 slices so you <em>divide</em> 100 by 20. Which equals 5.

It would take 5 cakes to feed all 50 people 2 slices each.

<em>Hope this helps</em>. :)
