Answer:
x=6
Step-by-step explanation:
81^x = 27 ^(x+2)
81 = 3^4 and 27 =3^3 so replace 81 and 27 in the equation
3^4^x = 3^3^(x+2)
When we have a power to a power we can multiply the exponents
a ^b^c = a^(b*c)
3^(4x) = 3^(3*(x+2))
Since the bases are the same, the exponents have to be the same
a^b = a^c means b=c
4x = 3(x+2)
Now we can solve for x
Distribute
4x = 3x+6
Subtract 3x from each side
4x-3x = 3x-3x+6
x = 6
Answer:
c)
Step-by-step explanation:
Use 49 instead of 14 for 7²
Reason: 7² = 7 * 7 = 49
Not 14 as 7*2 = 14
<span>Simplifying
2x + 18y = 36
Solving
2x + 18y = 36
Solving for variable 'x'.
Move all terms containing x to the left, all other terms to the right.
Add '-18y' to each side of the equation.
2x + 18y + -18y = 36 + -18y
Combine like terms: 18y + -18y = 0
2x + 0 = 36 + -18y
2x = 36 + -18y
Divide each side by '2'.
x = 18 + -9y
Simplifying
x = 18 + -9y</span>
Answer:
Answer options
A. Two cities that are 7.5 cm apart on the map are actually 50 km apart.
D. Two cities that are actually 66 km apart are 9.9 cm apart on the map.
Step-by-step explanation:
Step 1
Indicate the scale as shown;
3 cm : 20 km, meaning 3 cm on the map represents 20 km on the ground
A). what does 7.5 cm represent on the ground
Distance on ground=(7.5×20)/3=50 km
B). what does 4 cm represent on the ground
Distance on ground=(4×20)/3=26.67 km
C). what does 45 km on ground represent on the map
Distance on map=(45×3)/20=6.75 cm
D). what does 66 km on ground represent on the map
Distance on the map=(66×3)/20=9.9 cm
