Kayden is a stunt driver. One time, during a gig where she escaped from a building about to explode, she drove at a constant spe

ed to get to the safe zone that was 160 meters away. After 3 seconds of driving, she was 85 meters away from the safe zone. Let D(t) denote the distance to the safe zone D (measured in meters) as a function of time t (measured in seconds).
Which of the below formulas is the correct function's formula?
A. D(t) = -25t + 160
B. D(t) = 25t + 160
C. D(t) = -25t - 160
D. D(t) = 25t - 160

Step-by-step explanation:

A. D(t) = -25t + 160

this is the correct answer because if you substitute 3 you get 85

So, the value of x is 1.19

The question is an exponential equation

<h3>What is an exponential equation?</h3>

An exponential equation is a mathematical expression between two quantities in which one variable is raised to a power of the other variable.

<h3>How to find x?</h3>

Since 4^{x} + 6^{x} = 9^{x},

Dividing through by 4ˣ, we have

\frac{4^{x} }{4^{x} } + \frac{6^{x} }{4^{x} }  = \frac{9^{x} }{4^{x} } \\1 + (\frac{6}{4})^{x} }  = (\frac{9}{4})^{x} } \\1 + (\frac{3}{2})^{x} }  = (\frac{3^{2} }{2^{2} })^{x} } \\1 + (\frac{3}{2})^{x} }  = (\frac{3}{2})^{2x} }

Let y = (3/2)ˣ

So,

1 + y = y²

y² - y - 1 = 0

Using the quadratic formula to find y,

y = \frac{-b +/- \sqrt{b^{2} - 4ac} }{2a}

where a = 1 b = -1 and c = -1

Substituting the values of the variables into the equation, we have

y = \frac{-(-1) +/- \sqrt{(-1)^{2} - 4\times 1 \times (-1)} }{2\times 1}\\= \frac{1 +/- \sqrt{1 + 4} }{2}\\= \frac{1 +/- \sqrt{5} }{2}\\= \frac{1 - \sqrt{5} }{2} or  \frac{1 + \sqrt{5} }{2}\\= \frac{1 - 2.236}{2} or  \frac{1 + 2.236}{2}\\= \frac{- 1.236}{2} or  \frac{3.236}{2}\\= -0.618 or 1.618

Since y = (3/2)ˣ

Takung logarithm of both sides, we have

㏒y = ㏒(3/2)ˣ

㏒y = x㏒(3/2)

x = ㏒y/㏒(3/2)

x = ㏒y/㏒1.5

Since we do not have logarithm of a negative number, we use y = 1.618.

So, x = ㏒y/㏒1.5

x = ㏒1.618/㏒1.5

x = 0.2090/0.1761

x = 1.19

So, the value of x is 1.19

How to change 3 7/8 into an improper fraction
VladimirAG [237]
3 7/8

So we can use this a \frac{b}{c} = \frac{(a \times c) + b}{c}

So we get

3 \frac{7}{8} = \frac{(3 \times 8) + 7}{8}

= \frac{24+7}{8} = \frac{31}{8}
