To solve for x we proceed as follows:
from the laws of logarithm, given that:
log_a b=c
then
a^c=b
applying the rationale to our question we shall have:
log_5 x=4
hence
5^4=x
x=625
Answer: x=625
32 students choose a favorite topping for their slices.
Let x be the total number of students.
1/2 of the total students, or 1/2x, choose pepperoni.
1/4 of the total students, or 1/4x, choose extra cheese.
1/8 of the total students, or 1/8x, choose sausage.
4 students choose mushrooms.
We know that together, these equal the total number of students, x:
1/2x+1/4x+1/8x+4=x
We will use 8 as the common denominator:
4/8x+2/8x+1/8x+4=x
Combining like terms:
7/8x+4=x
Subtract 7/8x from both sides:
7/8x+4-7/8x=x-7/8x
4=1x-7/8x
4=1/8x
Divide both sides by 1/8:
4÷(1/8) = 1/8x÷(1/8)
4/1÷(1/8) = x
4/1×8/1 = x
32/1 = x
32 = x
1.(first blank) 2
2.(second blank) also 2
So 2 and 2
EXPLANATION:
3 x 2 is 6.
6 x 2 is 12.

S(5) = -16*(5)*2 + 550 = 390
you just replace t with 5
