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
Answer: It would be $4.38
Step-by-step explanation: If you divide the $5 by .8 it will give you what 1/8 of it would be then you multiply it by 7 to get the 7/8 of it.
The answer is 95ft
1. Set up an equation 52-x=-43
2. Subtract 52 from both sides -x=43-52
3. Simplify -x=-95
4. x=95
All the best (if you don't understand the equation let me know if you want help)
I think 24 might be the answer if not its 15
height of mt.= 4000meters
hope it helps...!!!
