Answer:
y = 0
Step-by-step explanation:
It is always a good idea to look at the question and make some observations about it. Here, you might observe ...
- all of the bases are powers of 3: 243 = 3^5; 9 = 3^2
- y is a factor of every exponent
The latter observation is important, because it means that when y=0, every exponential expression has a value of 1. Hence y = 0 is a solution.

To solve the equation, you can write it in terms of powers of 3.
(3^5)^(-y) = (3^-5)^(3y)·(3^2)^(-2y)
3^(-5y) = 3^(-15y)·3^(-4y)
3^(-5y) = 3^(-19y)
-5y = -19y . . . . . . . . equating exponents; equivalent to taking log base 3
14y = 0 . . . . . . . . . . add 19y
y = 0 . . . . . . . . . . . one solution
______
The rules of exponents we used are ...
(a^b)(a^c) = a^(b+c)
(a^b)^c = a^(bc)
1/a^b = a^-b
Answer: y=4x+7 is the equation
Answer:
2.84
Step-by-step explanation:
Recognize that 252 = 7*36
and so:
log base 7 of 252 = log base 7 of 36 + log base 7 of 7, or
log base 7 of 36 + 1
So the most you can simplify log base 7 of 252 is to write 1 + log base 7 of 36.
Or, if you want to use the change of base formula, you could do the following:
log 36
log base 7 of 36 = -------------- = 1.84
log 7
and so log base 7 of 252 would come out to
1 + log base 7 of 36 = 1 + 1.84 = 2.84
Check: does 7^2.84 = 252? YES. So we know that:
1 + log base 7 of 36 = 2.84
A 12-sided die is rolled. The set of equally likely outcomes is {1,2,3,4,5,6,7,8,9,10,11,12}. Find the probability of rolling

Answer: 1/12</h3>
This is because there's one side we want (that's labeled "8") out of 12 sides total. This is of course if each side is equally likely.
Side note: this 12-sided die is known as a dodecahedron.
Answer:=3a+2b−21
Step-by-step explanation:
Let's simplify step-by-step.
3a+2b−7−4−10
=3a+2b+−7+−4+−10
Combine Like Terms:
=3a+2b+−7+−4+−10
=(3a)+(2b)+(−7+−4+−10)
=3a+2b+−21
