Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
Begin by dividing by 5
2x + 4 = 3
Is this written as 2^(x + 4) = 3? I think it is.
Take the log of both sides
log 2^(x + 4) = log(3)
(x + 4) * log(2) = log 3
log 2 = 0.30103
log 3 = 0.47712
(x + 4) = log2 / log3
x + 4 = 0.63093 Add 4 to both sides
x = -3.369 Rounded to the nearest thousandth
====================
If you mean the question exactly as it is written (the 4 is not part of the power)
5(2^x + 4) = 15
2^x + 4 = 3
2^x = 3 - 4
2^x = - 1
This can't be done 2 to any power should be >0.
if x>0 then this will give an ever increasing number
if xK0 then this will give an ever decreasing answer but still greater than 0.
No value will make 2^x go to something minus.
If I have misread this in some way, leave a note and I will get back to you.
crosses x-axis at (2, 0 ) and y-axis at (0, - 4 )
To find where the graph crosses the x and y axes ( intercepts )
• let x = 0, in the equation for y- intercept
• let y = 0, in the equation for x- intercept
x = 0 : y = 0 - 4 = - 4 ⇒ (0, - 4 )
y = 0 : 2x - 4 = 0 ⇒ 2x = 4 ⇒ x = 2 ⇒ (2, 0 )
Answer:
9 square units
Step-by-step explanation:
The lower number of the fraction is the X value and since it's negative u go 3 to the right(if u loon at point T)and since it's a negative 4 on the top you go 4 down and if you would reverse it you would notice that 0|4 is 1 y value below the straight line so the coordinates are (3|5)
