Answer:
x = -1/2
Step-by-step explanation:
This question can be solved by applying the laws of indices
In a^n, a - base
n - index
Given
9^x = 1/3
According to the laws of indices, a/b = b^(-a)
Hence we can write, 1/3 = 3^(-1)
9^x = 3^(2x)
Again according to the laws of indices,
a^b = a^n can be written as;
b = n
That is, if in an equation the bases are the same, the indices are also equal.
So we can write,
3^(2x) = 3^(-1)
2x = -1
Divide both sides of the equation by 2, the coefficient of x
2x/2 = -1/2
x = -1/2
The first one is correct (-2/3, -1/2, 7/12, 0.82) pls mark branliest
<span>The number can be 102, 108, or 114. They can all be formed that way.
32 + 34 + 36 = 102
34 + 36 + 38 = 108
36 + 38 + 40 = 114
</span>The n<span>ext one is 120 . . . . . 38 + 40 + 42</span>
