I'm not completely sure but this is what I would do.
evaluate <span>(1/ 4)^x - 1 </span>as is. But change the (1 /2)^2x to (2/4)^2x. This way both fractions have the same denominator and in this sense, the same base. The 2/4 base still evaluates into 1/2 so nothing, mathematically, is being broken here.
Answer:
y=2x+5
Step-by-step explanation:
1/3 * 9x = 3x
1/3 * 3 = 1
3x + 1 = 4x
3x + 1 = 4x
4x=4x
That would be 180 cuz you lose a total of 5 pounds per 6 months so30 pounds. Then 210 minus 30 is 180
