1/3+5/12=4/12+5/12=9/12=3/4 of guests choose meat
1-3/4=1/4 of guests are vegetarians
so

(5/6)^4x=(36/25)^9-x, please help solve for x, and the 9-x is all superscript

stiks02 [169]

$\frac{36}{25}=\frac{6^2}{5^2}=\left(\frac{6}{5}\right)^2=\left(\frac{5}{6}\right)^{-2}\\\\therefore:\\\\\left(\frac{5}{6}\right)^{4x}=\left[\left(\frac{5}{6}\right)^{-2}\right]^{9-x}\\\\\left(\frac{5}{6}\right)^{4x}=\left(\frac{5}{6}\right)^{-2(9-x)}\iff4x=-2(9-x)\\\\4x=-2\cdot9-2\cdot(-x)\\\\4x=-18+2x\ \ \ \ \ |subtract\ 2x\ from\ both\ sides\\\\2x=-18\ \ \ \ \ \ |divide\ both\ sides\ by\ 2\\\\\boxed{x=-9}$

$Use:\\a^{-n}=\left(\frac{1}{a}\right)^n\\\\\left(a^n\right)^m=a^{n\cdot m}\\\\\left(\frac{a}{b} \right)^n=\frac{a^n}{b^n}$

Simplify the expression to a polynomial in standard form. (x-2)(x2 +7x +4)

goldenfox [79]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

(x - 2)(x² + 7x + 4) = x(x² + 7x + 4) - 2*(x² + 7x + 4)

= x*x² + x*7x + 4*x - 2*x² -2* 7x -2* 4

= x³ + 7x² + 4x - 2x² -14x -8

= x³ + 7x² - 2x² + 4x - 14x - 8

= x³ + 5x² - 10x - 8

-7-2x=7(x+8) What is the answer for this expression

sertanlavr [38]

Answer:

x=-7

Step-by-step explanation:

1. Distribute the 7 into the parenthesis: -7-2x=7x+56

2. Combine like terms by doing the opposite operation to the numbers: -7=9x+56 (added 2x to 7x)

3. Subtract 56 to each side of the equation: -63=9x

4. To isolate the variable "x," divide each side by 9: x=-7
