Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
Method 1: Taking the log of both sides...
So take the log of both sides...
5^(2x + 1) = 25
log 5^(2x + 1) = log 25 <-- use property: log (a^x) = x log a...
(2x + 1)log 5 = log 25 <-- distribute log 5 inside the brackets...
(2x)log 5 + log 5 = log 25 <-- subtract log 5 both sides of the equation...
(2x)log 5 + log 5 - log 5 = log 25 - log 5
(2x)log 5 = log (25/5) <-- use property: log a - log b = log (a/b)
(2x)log 5 = log 5 <-- divide both sides by log 5
(2x)log 5 / log 5 = log 5 / log 5 <--- this equals 1..
2x = 1
x=1/2
Method 2
5^(2x+1)=5^2
2x+1=2
2x=1
x=1/2
1. -1
2. 1
3. 5
4. -1
5.-1
6. -3
Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
What I would do is convert everything to have a denominator of 10 so it could be easier to add.
6 would equal 60/10
7 would equal 70/10
2/5 would equal 4/10
now add all together
60/10 + 70/10 + 4/10 +9/10 and you get 143/10. If you wanted to simplify you would get 14 3/10 or 14.30
