Answer:

x=7/3

Step-by-step explanation:

8 ^ (x - 1 ) = 16

We need to rewrite 8 as 2^3  and 16 as 2^4

2^3 ^ (x - 1 ) = 2^4

We know that a^b^c = a^(b*c)

2^(3(x-1)) = 2^4

The bases are the same so the exponents are the same

3(x-1) = 4

Distribute

3x-3 = 4

Add 3 to each side

3x-3+3 = 4+3

3x = 7

Divide by 3

3x/3 = 7/3

x=7/3

german

yes sure, i learned this before so

1. a. make a proportion here, of percentage. \frac{225}{250} =\frac{x}{100} if you cross multiply and divide you get 90%.

1. b. obviously the empty seats would be 10%.

2. a. proportion again, \frac{0.90}{6.00} =\frac{x}{100} cross multiply then divide you ge 15%

3. 30% in decimal form is 0.3. multiply it then to the total amount, so 0.3 x 15 = 4.5

What is the y-intercept of y = -2x+6y=−2x+6?
goblinko [34]

Answer:

6

Step-by-step explanation:

Given: y=-2x+6

Since the equation is written in slope-intercept form, it is extremely easy to find the y-intercept. Slope-intercept form is written as:

y=mx+b

Whereas:

y: range

m: slope

x: domain

b: y-intercept

With that in mind, we can immediately tell that 6 is the y-intercept.
