Erika is working on solving the exponential equation 50^x = 17; The solution is x = 0.7242.
<h3>What is logarithm?</h3>
When you raise a number with an exponent, there comes a result.
Let's say you get
a^b = c
Then, you can write 'b' in terms of 'a' and 'c' using a logarithm as follows

'a' is called base of this log function. We say that 'b' is the logarithm of 'c' to base 'a'
Erika is working on solving the exponential equation 50^x = 17;
however, she is not quite sure where to start.
The equation is

By taking the log both sides

By using the base formula

So, 

x = 0.7242

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:
step 1
In the isosceles right triangle PQT
PQ=PT ----> because is an isosceles triangle
Applying the Pythagoras Theorem
we have


substitute the values



step 2
In the square QRST

step 3
In the right triangle RSU
Applying the Pythagoras Theorem

we have


substitute the values and solve for SU





To find the midpoint, you add the x values and divide by 2.
(-3 + 10) /2
7/2 = 3.5
So x = 3.5
I'd be more than happy to do all of that, but I can't even start
until I see YOUR picture of the problem. That will show me
if circle-P and circle-q are overlapping, just touching, separate
from each other, same size, different sizes, their radii, and where
the points J and K are. THOSE are the little things I need to know
in order to get started.
You want to know the distance between J and K, but you haven't
given us one single distance or size of anything in the problem ...
nothing at all to work with. That right there makes it impossible.
