ANSWER: x = -0.082
EXPLANATION:
1. Apply logarithm to both sides of the
equation. If one of the terms has base 10,
use common logarithm, otherwise, use
natural logarithm
2. Use the different properties of logarithms
to solve for the variable.

-92 _ 7 = 49
7.17-92 = 56
17-92 = 8

2 of 3
Add both sides by 7
Divide both sides by 7
Convert to logarithm
Divide both sides by - 9
For perpendicular lines, m1m2 = -1 or m2 = -1/m1; where m1 and m2 are the slopes of the lines.
Here line 1 is 3x - 7y = 42
7y = 3x - 42
y = 3/7 x - 6; Hence m1 = 3/7
m2 = -1/(3/7) = -7/3
Required equation y - y1 = m2(x - x1)
y - (-8) = -7/3(x - (-3))
y + 8 = -7/3(x + 3)
y + 8 = -7/3 x - 7
y = -7/3 x - 7 - 8
y = -7/3 x - 15
The answer is 10 because you subtract 17-7
280 because 360 divided by 18 is 20. 20 times 14 is 280. hope this helps
