-3x/4 + 9/4 = (1/2)^x + 1
-3x/4 - 2^-x = -5/4
(Using log rules)
㏑|-3x/4| - ㏑|2^-x| = ㏑|-5/4|
㏑|3x/4| - x㏑|2| = ㏑|5/4|
e^㏑|3x/4| - e^㏑|2|x = e^㏑|5/4|
|3x/4| - 2x = 5/4
|3x| - 8x = 5
|3x-8x| = 5
|-5x| = 5
|5x| = 5
x=1, -1
Solution:
As per the problem
A person is born every 5 seconds and a person dies every 12 seconds.
Here the LCD of 5 and 12 is 60.
The number of person born in 60 seconds
The Number of person died in 12 seconds
Hence Population increase in 60 seconds is
Hence time required to increase the population by one 
Answer:
Yes, the relationship can be described by a constant rate of $18.75 per dog
Step-by-step explanation:
see the attached figure to better understand the problem
Let
x ----> the number of dogs
y ---> the amount of money earned
we have the points

step 1
Find the slope with the first and second point


step 2
Find the slope with the first and third point


Compare the slopes
The slopes are the same
That means, that the three points lies on the same line
therefore
Yes, the relationship can be described by a constant rate of $18.75 per dog
Answer:
The person traveled 540 miles by plane and 60 miles by automobile.
Step-by-step explanation:
The options are not given to choose from, but this question can be solved as it will only have one answer.
Let the miles traveled by automobile be = x
Then, miles traveled by airplane will be = 9x
Now, the total trip length was = 600 miles
3a + 6b = 45
2a - 2b = -12....multiply by 3
----------------
3a + 6b = 45
6a - 6b = - 36 ...(result of multiplying by 3)
---------------add
9a = 9
a = 1
3a + 6b = 45
3(1) + 6b = 45
3 + 6b = 45
6b = 45 - 3
6b = 42
b = 7
solution is : (1,7)
