Answer:

<em>x = 2</em>

Step-by-step explanation:

<u>Exponential Equations</u>

Solve:

5^{2x-1}+5^{x+1}=250

Separate each exponential:

5^{2x}5^{-1}+5^{x}5^{1}=250

Operating:

\displaystyle \frac{5^{2x}}{5}+5^{x}5=250

Multiplying by 5:

5^{2x}+25\cdot5^x=1250

Rearranging:

5^{2x}+25\cdot5^x-1250=0

Recall that:

5^{2x}=(5^{x})^2

(5^{x})^2+25\cdot5^x-1250=0

Calling

y=5^{x}:

y^2+25y-1250=0

Factoring:

(y-25)(y+50)=0

There are two possible solutions:

y=25

y=-50

Since

y=5^{x}

y cannot be negative, thus:

5^{x}=25=5^2

The solution is:

x = 2

Solve the equation<br><br> 1.6=7.6-5(k+1.1)
zepelin [54]
7.6 - 5(k + 1.1) = 1.6

7.6 - 5(k + 1.1) - 7.6 = 1.6 - 7.6

-5(k +1.1) = -6

-5(k + 1.1) -6
-------------- = ---------
-5 -5

k + 1.1 = 6
-----
5

k + 1.1 - 1.1 = 6
----- - 1.1
5

k = 0.1

Find the Domain and Range of the following: (6.-1) (-2.2) (18,-1) (-2,3) Domain: Range: Is this relation a function?​
zheka24 [161]

Answer:

Domain: {-2,6,18}

Range: {-1,2,3}

This relation is not a function.

Step-by-step explanation:

The domain is all of the x values given listed in order from least to greatest and not repeating any numbers. The range is the same thing, but with the y values given. This is not a function because multiple ordered pairs have more than one output for the input. Let's take -2 in these ordered pairs. It has two different outputs, 3 and 2. Because of this, it is not a function.

Hope this helps!!

100 POINTS<br><br> PLEASE PROVIDE STEPS<br> THANK YOU!!
kolbaska11 [484]

Answer:

Local minimum at x = 0.

Step-by-step explanation:

Local minimums occur when g'(x) = 0 and g"(x) > 0.

Local maximums occur when g'(x) = 0 and g"(x) < 0.

Set g'(x) equal to 0 and solve:

0 = 2x (x − 1)² (x + 1)²

x = 0, 1, or -1

Evaluate g"(x) at each point:

g"(0) = 2

g"(1) = 0

g"(-1) = 0

There is a local minimum at x = 0.
