4.5. because ⁼3=9, and 9 divided by 2 is 4.5
Answer:
-1
Step-by-step explanation:
This all comes down to the substitution. I am assuming that (4x2) is meant to be 4x^2 so I will solve as that.
4(-2)^2 = 4(4) = 16
4(-2) = - 8
-2(3)^2 = -2(9) = -18
3(3) = 9
16-8-18+9= -1
Answer:
x= 6 1/2 or 6.5
Step-by-step explanation:
4^x-5 =8
2^2(x-5) =2^3
since the base is equal, the powers are equal
2(x-5) = 3
2x - 10 = 3
2x = 3 + 10
2x = 13
2x/2 = 13/2
x = 6 1/2 or 6.5
You move the decimal point forward until it reaches the one so it looks like this:
1.4 x 10⁵
the exponent, 5, just tells you how many spaces the decimal point moved.
