2^2x=5^x−1
Take the log pf both sides:
ln(2^2x) = ln(5^x-1)
Expand the logs by pulling the exponents out:
2xln(2) = (x-1)ln(5)
Simpligy the right side:
2xln(2) = ln(5)x - ln(5)
Now solve for x:
Subtract ln(5)x from both sides:
2xln(2) - ln(5)x = -ln(5)
Factor x out of 2xln(2)-ln(5)x
x(2ln(2) - ln(5)) = -ln(5)
Divide both sides by (2ln(2) - ln(5))
X = - ln(5) / (2ln(2) - ln(5))
Im not sure if im correct but I think the answer is 82 hours.
1. find the area of the two triangles, including the shaded section. the formula for this is a=1/2bh
the height and base are both 24 inches. this is because you add the 10 from the side of the square to the 14 that is given
so:
a=1/2(24)(24)
a=(12)(24)
a=288 sq. inches
since there are two triangles, you would multiply the area by 2
a=2(288)
a=576 sq. inches
now, since you only need the unshaded section, you have to take away the shaded section, which is a square. to do this, you must calculate the area of the square and take it away from the area of both triangles.
a=576-(lw)
a=576- (10)(10)
a=576-100
a=476 sq. inches
that is your answer
Solution:
Given, x=-3, y=6, and z=4
Putting these values in the given equation:
-15+(-x)+y
= -15+(-(-3)+6
= -15+3+6
= -15+9
= -6
