Let n be a number of balls: n = 14
In one pan you have 8 balls: 8n
In the other pan you have the rest of balls (14 - 8 = 6) along with a <span>weight of 20 grams = 6n + 20
So the pans are balanced:
8n = 6n + 20
Now, just solve the equation:
8n - 6n = 20
2n = 20
n = 20/2
n = 10
So, you know that a ball weights 10 grams.</span>
Answer:
use logarithms
Step-by-step explanation:
Taking the logarithm of an expression with a variable in the exponent makes the exponent become a coefficient of the logarithm of the base.

You will note that this approach works well enough for ...
a^(x+3) = b^(x-6) . . . . . . . . . . . variables in the exponents
(x+3)log(a) = (x-6)log(b) . . . . . a linear equation after taking logs
but doesn't do anything to help you solve ...
x +3 = b^(x -6)
There is no algebraic way to solve equations that are a mix of polynomial and exponential functions.

Some functions have been defined to help in certain situations. For example, the "product log" function (or its inverse) can be used to solve a certain class of equations with variables in the exponent. However, these functions and their use are not normally studied in algebra courses.
In any event, I find a graphing calculator to be an extremely useful tool for solving exponential equations.

Remember
area=pir^2
circumference=2pir
the surface aera if you thinkg about it is
2 times the tops+area around
the tops are circles so 2*pir^2 is tops
the area around is a rectangle that has been wrapped around the cylinder,
the hieght is the legnth and the circumference is width
so 2hpir is the area around
2pir^2 is the areas of the tops
2hpir is the area around
