Answer:

x = 5

Step-by-step explanation:

2x - 7 = -3x + 18

2x - 7 + 7 = -3x + 18 + 7

2x = -3x + 25

2x + 3x = -3x + 25 + 3x

5x = 25

x = 5

Answer:

x=5

Step-by-step explanation:

2x−7=−3x+18

Step 1: Add 3x to both sides.

2x−7+3x=−3x+18+3x

5x−7=18

Step 2: Add 7 to both sides.

5x−7+7=18+7

5x=25

Step 3: Divide both sides by 5.

x=5

Since 1995 the cost of a bag of groceries has increased about 2.5% each year. The equation C = 25(1.025)x will give the value of

Marianna [84]

Answer: 28 years

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

The equation showing the value of the bag after x years is $C=25(1.025)^x$

If the price of the bag increased by 2.5%, from the equation, we can deduce that

Initial cost of the bag is 25

Double of the initial value is 50

Insert it in the equation

$\Rightarrow 50=25(1.025)^x\\\Rightarrow 2=1.025^x\\\text{Taking natural log}\\\Rightarrow \ln 2=x\ln (1.025)\\\\\Rightarrow x=\dfrac{\ln 2}{\ln 1.025}\\\\\Rightarrow x=28.07\approx 28$

It will take 28 years
