Answer: 9^(x-3) = 9^3

Step-by-step explanation:

Realizing that 729 = 9^3, we can rewrite the equation ...

9^(x -3) = 729

as ...

9^(x -3) = 9^3 . . . . . . matches the second selection

Recognizing that 9 = 3^2, a couple of other equivalent forms can be made.

(3^2)^(x -3) = (3^2)^3

3^(2x-6) = 3^6

or, taking the square root, ...

3^(x -3) = 3^3

None of these forms match any answer choices.

_____

The solution will be found by matching exponents:

x -3 = 3

x = 6

a local high schools cheerleading squad is selling snow cones during lunch to raise money for a national cheerleading competitio

svlad2 [7]

We have:

Volume of cone = 535 cm³ at the maximum
Height of cone= 8cm

We know the formula to find volume of cone is $\frac{1}{3} r^{2} \pi h$

We need to find the radius of the base of the cone
$535= \frac{\pi r^{2}8} {3}$
$535*8= \pi r^{2}$
$\frac{4280}{\pi}= r^{2}$
$r= \sqrt{ \frac{4280}{ \pi} }$
$r=36.9$ to the nearest one decimal place

The width of the opening of the cone is the diameter of the circle. Diameter is twice the radius, hence 2×36.9=73.8 cm

Find the limit of the function by using direct substitution. limit as x approaches zero of quantity x squared plus one.

katen-ka-za [31]

Direct substitution allows us to put the limit value directly into he equation in question.
$\lim_{x \to 0} (x^{2} +1) = (0^{2}+1)=1$
So the answer is 1

How do you solve 2(3k+4)=10

bezimeni [28]

The answer would be: k= 1/3

Here’s how you solve it!

First you want to divide both sides by 2

Now you are left with this:

3k+4=5

Now you want to move 4 to the other side causing it to change into a negative.

3k=5-4

Now subtract 5-4 to get 1

3k= 1

Now divide both sides by 3

K= 1/3

Now you are left with your answer: $K= \frac{1}{3}$

Hope this helps! :3
