Hello from MrBillDoesMath!
Answer:
Take you pick below! (either x 8 or x = 7.01, approx, depending how the question is interpreted)
Discussion:
Interpretation 1
If the question is
2^(x -1) = 128, then as 2^7 = 128,
x-1 = 7 so x = 8
Interpretation 2
If the question is (2^x -1) = 128, then..
2^x = 128 + 1 = 129 =>
log(2^x) = log(129) =>
xlog(2) = log(129) =>
x = log (129) / log2 = 7.01

Answer:
52 32- cent stamps and 26 13-cent stamps
Step-by-step explanation:
Let x be the 32-cent stamps and y be the 13-cent stamps then...
x=2y
32x+13y=2002 (note that $20.02 is 2002 cents)
We can solve using substitution (substitute 2y for x)
32(2y)+13y=2002
64y+13y=2002
77y=2002
y=26
x=2(26)
x=52

Answer:
The temperature in Minneapolis was -9°F. The next day, the temperature was warmer than -9°F.
let increased temperature be x
temperature of next day = -9°f +x
Answer:
F
Step-by-step explanation:
F
zero
Anytime you have zero as a possible answer, you have to consider it carefully. Part of the whole number system is 0. They go up from there. No fraction is a whole number. No decimal is a whole number except those that are equal to a whole number.
The rest are all decimals so they are not whole numbers. Note I just noticed that the other numbers have periods after the choice. There are other whole numbers there if that is the case.
C D E and F are all whole numbers if that is a period after their choice letters.
I would say 8.0 Because if you do 12.6-4.9 you get 7.7 ...hope that helped
