Write the equation of the line that is perpendicular to the line 3x + y = 7 and passes through the point (6, -1).

ira [324]

Line:
3x+y=7
y=-3x+7

Slope of Perpendicular Line: 1/3x

For the perpendicular line to contain point (6,-1) the y-intercept would be (0,1), thus the equation of the line would be y=1/3x+1

y=1/3x+1

What is the exact value of x in the exponential equation 2^5x − 57 = 43?

katovenus [111]

Start by getting the term with the exponent on one side
$2^{5x}=100$

take the log of both sides
$log 2^{5x} =log100$

There is a log rule that says we can bring down the exponent
$5xlog2=log100$

Solve for x
$5x= \frac{log100}{log2}$
5x=6.64

answer: x=1.33
