U do the radios first then what ever your anwser is u multipy it by 3.14
(a) If

is the mass (in mg) remaining after

years, then


(b)

(c)
First you need to make both bases the same:
Lets remove the ^p and ^4
To make the base of 42 equal to 41, you would have 41^x = 41
X - ln(42) / ln(41) = 1.00648904
Now you have 41^1.00648904(p) = 41^4
Now the bases are equal so we need to set the exponents to equal:
1.00648904(p) = 4
Divide both sides by 1.00648904 to solve for P
P = 4 / 1.00648904
P = 3.97421114
We are given equation :




Therefore, final factored form it

We can't factor it more.
Therefore,
x+1=0.
x=-1.
Therefore, the real solution of the equation would be -1.
