An exponential function can be expressed as:
y=ab^x we have two points so we can solve
64/8=(ab^4)/(ab^1)
8=b^3
2=b, now we have:
y=a(2^x), using point (4,64)
64=a(2^4)
64=16a
4=a so
y=4(2^x)
Divide the number of quarts you have by 4 to convert to gallons
Simply take the numerator (3) and denominator (7) and add them together.
3+7 = 10, which means that the ratio will provide parts that are in multiples of 10 depending on the total
so take 10x = 800
x = 80.
Then multiply this by the numerator and denominator
3*80/7*80 = 240/560.
Answer:
It has no solution because, 14x cancels out -14x when you move the variables to the left and leaves the equation as 0 = -12, however we know that 0 does not equal -12 which means this solution is false; therefore this equation has no solution since 0 does not equal -12.
Step-by-step explanation:
5 - 4x - 7 - 10x = -8x - 4 - 6x - 10 (Given)
-2 - 14x = -14x - 14 (Combine like terms)
0 = -12 (Move variables(x) to the left and the constants to the right)
(x+40):12=88-78
(x+40):12=10
x+40=10*12
x+40=120
x=120-40
x=80
