The ratio of the rectangle's length to its width is 42/14 which simplifies to 3/1 by factoring out 14 out of the numerator and denominator.
Any ratio that is not 3:1, or a multiple of 3:1, is not equal.
List of Equal Ratios: 6:2, 9:3, 12:4, etc.
Answer: 0.7, 0.251, 0.18, 0.171
Step-by-step explanation:
Answer: changed by $48
Step-by-step explanation: 6 times $4 = $24 + $4 times 6 = $24 total= $48
Also $4 times 12 = $48
Answer:
use logarithms
Step-by-step explanation:
Taking the logarithm of an expression with a variable in the exponent makes the exponent become a coefficient of the logarithm of the base.

You will note that this approach works well enough for ...
a^(x+3) = b^(x-6) . . . . . . . . . . . variables in the exponents
(x+3)log(a) = (x-6)log(b) . . . . . a linear equation after taking logs
but doesn't do anything to help you solve ...
x +3 = b^(x -6)
There is no algebraic way to solve equations that are a mix of polynomial and exponential functions.

Some functions have been defined to help in certain situations. For example, the "product log" function (or its inverse) can be used to solve a certain class of equations with variables in the exponent. However, these functions and their use are not normally studied in algebra courses.
In any event, I find a graphing calculator to be an extremely useful tool for solving exponential equations.
Answer:
170years
Step-by-step explanation:
R/100=2.5%
time= 100=0.025 per year (1/0.025) (5200\1000)-1=168
time=168 years
