Step-by-step explanation:

<u>Step 1: Define</u>

g(x) = 1/2x - 11

g(x) = -5

<u>Step 2: Solve for </u><em><u>x</u></em>

  1. Substitute:                    -5 = 1/2x - 11
  2. Isolate <em>x</em> term:              6 = 1/2x
  3. Isolate <em>x</em>:                       12 = x
  4. Rewrite:                        x = 12

What is the true solution to the equation below?
Marina CMI [18]

Answer:

The solution is:

  • x=4

Step-by-step explanation:

Considering the expression

lne^{lnx}+lne^{lnx}^{^2}=2ln8

\ln \left(e^{\ln \left(x\right)}\right)+\ln \left(e^{\ln \left(x\right)\cdot \:2}\right)=2\ln \left(8\right)

\mathrm{Apply\:log\:rule}:\quad \:log_a\left(a^b\right)=b

\ln \left(e^{\ln \left(x\right)}\right)=\ln \left(x\right),\:\space\ln \left(e^{\ln \left(x\right)2}\right)=\ln \left(x\right)2

\ln \left(x\right)+\ln \left(x\right)\cdot \:2=2\ln \left(8\right)

\mathrm{Add\:similar\:elements:}\:\ln \left(x\right)+2\ln \left(x\right)=3\ln \left(x\right)

3\ln \left(x\right)=2\ln \left(8\right)

\mathrm{Divide\:both\:sides\:by\:}3

\frac{3\ln \left(x\right)}{3}=\frac{2\ln \left(8\right)}{3}

\ln \left(x\right)=\frac{2\ln \left(8\right)}{3}.....A

Solving the right side of the equation A.

\frac{2\ln \left(8\right)}{3}

As

\ln \left(8\right):\quad 3\ln \left(2\right)

Because

\ln \left(8\right)

\mathrm{Rewrite\:}8\mathrm{\:in\:power-base\:form:}\quad 8=2^3

⇒ \ln \left(2^3\right)

\mathrm{Apply\:log\:rule}:\quad \log _a\left(x^b\right)=b\cdot \log _a\left(x\right)

\ln \left(2^3\right)=3\ln \left(2\right)

So

\frac{2\ln \left(8\right)}{3}=\frac{2\cdot \:3\ln \left(2\right)}{3}

\mathrm{Multiply\:the\:numbers:}\:2\cdot \:3=6

          =\frac{6\ln \left(2\right)}{3}

\mathrm{Divide\:the\:numbers:}\:\frac{6}{3}=2

          =2\ln \left(2\right)

So, equation A becomes

\ln \left(x\right)=2\ln \left(2\right)

\mathrm{Apply\:log\:rule}:\quad \:a\log _c\left(b\right)=\log _c\left(b^a\right)

         =\ln \left(2^2\right)

         =\ln \left(4\right)

\ln \left(x\right)=\ln \left(4\right)

\mathrm{Apply\:log\:rule:\:\:If}\:\log _b\left(f\left(x\right)\right)=\log _b\left(g\left(x\right)\right)\:\mathrm{then}\:f\left(x\right)=g\left(x\right)          

x=4

Therefore, the solution is

  • x=4

ASAP math help algebra plzzz
skelet666 [1.2K]
This is a geometric sequence because each term is a constant multiple, called the common ratio, of the previous term.  In this case the common ratio, noted as "r", is:

8/-2=-32/8=128/-32=r=-4

The first term is -2

Any geometric sequence can be expressed as:

a(n)=ar^(n-1), a=initial term, r=common ratio, n=term number.

Since we know r and a for this problem already we can say:

a(n)=-2(-4)^(n-1)
