Given:

The mean age of 5 people in a room is 26 years.

A person enters the room. The mean age is now 33.

To find:

The age of the person who entered the room.

Solution:

Formula for mean:

\text{Mean}=\dfrac{\text{Sum of observations}}{\text{Number of observations}}

The mean age of 5 people in a room is 26 years.

26=\dfrac{\text{Sum of ages of 5 people}}{5}

26\times 5=\text{Sum of ages of 5 people}

130=\text{Sum of ages of 5 people}

The mean age is now 33. It means, the mean age of 6 people is 33.

33=\dfrac{\text{Sum of ages of 6 people}}{6}

33\times 6=\text{Sum of ages of 6 people}

198=\text{Sum of ages of 6 people}

Now, the age of the person who entered the room is

Required age = Sum of ages of 6 people - Sum of ages of 5 people

                       = 198-130

                       = 68

Therefore, the age of the person who entered the room is 68 years.

27^x = 9^x − 4 Question 1 options: x = 8 x = 4 x = −4 x = −8
Mariulka [41]

Answer:

x = -8

Step-by-step explanation:

Given the equation:

27^x=9^{x-4}

Note that

27=3^3\\ \\9=3^2,

then

27^x=(3^3)^x=3^{3x}\\ \\9^{x-4}=(3^2)^{x-4}=3^{2(x-4)}

Rewrite the equation as

3^{3x}=3^{2(x-4)},

then

3x=2(x-4)\\ \\3x=2x-8\\ \\3x-2x=-8\\ \\x=-8
