Answer:
x = 5.75
Step-by-step explanation:
4^(x+7) = 8^(2x-3)
But; 4^(x+7) = 2^2(x+7)
8^(2x-3) = 2^3(2x-3)
2^2(x+7) = 2^3(2x-3)
Since the bases are the same;
2(x+7) = 3(2x-3)
2x + 14 = 6x -9
14 + 9 = 6x - 2x
23 = 4x
x = 23/4
<u>x = 5.75</u>
The slope of the parallel line is -6/7
the slope of the perpendicular line is 7/6
the slope of the line = -6/7
the gradient of two parallel lines are equal
the product of the gradient of two perpendicular lines is -1
: the gradient m1*m2 = -1
m2= -1(-6/7)
m2= 7/6
The answer is 2.42
cuz i did the math and stuff
