Step-by-step explanation:

Step 1: Define

h(x) = -5x + 3

h(5) is x = 5

Step 2: Evaluate

Substitute in x [Function]: h(5) = -5(5) + 3
Multiply: h(5) = -25 + 3
Add: h(5) = -22

Solve 9^x + 4 = 11 for x using the change of base formula log base b of y equals log y over log b.

Sauron [17]

Answer:

If you meant $9^x+4=11$ , then the answer is approximately 0.866.

If you meant $9^{x+4}=11$ , then the answer is approximately -2.909 which looks like what you meant based on the choices.

Step-by-step explanation:

$9^x+4=11$

First step is to get the exponential part by itself. The part that has the variable exponent which is the $9^x$ term.

To do this we need to subtract 4 on both sides:

$9^x=11-4$

Simplify:

$9^x=7$

The equivalent logarithmic form is:

$\log_9(7)=x$

I always say to myself the logarithm is the exponent that is how I know what to put opposite the side containing the log.

Anyways if you don't have options for computing $\log_b(a)$ in your calculator you need to use the change of base formula.

$\frac{\log(7)}{\log(9)}=x$

So $x \approx 0.8856$

I don't see this as a choice so maybe you actually meant the following equation:

$9^{x+4}=11$

Let's see if this is the correct interpretation.

So the exponential part is already isolated.

So we just need to put in the equivalent logarithmic form:

$\log_9(11)=x+4$

Now we subtract 4 on both sides:

$\log_9(11)-4=x$

Again if you don't have the option for computing $\log_b(a)$ in your calculator, you will have to use the change of base formula:

$\frac{\log(11)}{\log(9)}-4=x$

$x \approx -2.909$

A sample of students is taken from the school’s A honor roll. The school estimates that there are actually 360 students on the A

zlopas [31]

Answer:

Number of 8th Graders = 360 - X

As you can see this question is not complete and lacks the essential data. But we will try to create a mathematical expression to calculate the number of students on the A honor roll which are from 8th grade.

As we know:

Total number of students on the A honor roll = 360

We are asked to calculate, number of students from 8th grade on the A honor roll.

So, let's assume that "X" represents all the students who are on the A honor roll except 8th grade.

Mathematical Expression:

Number of 8th Graders = Total number of students on the A honor roll - X

Number of 8th Graders = 360 - X

So, if you know the value of X, you can easily calculate the number of students which are from 8th grade on the A honor roll.

I am not sure if it is wrong I am sorrry.
