Answer:

There are 160 cats at the store.

Step-by-step explanation:

There are 40 black cats, which is 25% of all the cats. You are trying to find all the cats at the store, or 100% of the cats at the store. So:

40 = 25%

40(4) = 25% (4)

160 = 100%

There are 160 cats at the store.

Solve the following exponential equations.<br> 10^(3x−5) = 7^x

zalisa [80]

Answer:

x = 2.3202

Step-by-step explanation:

Given equation:

$10^{(3x-5)} = 7^x$

on taking log both sides, we get

$\log(10^{(3x-5))} =\log(7^x)$

now,

using the property of log function

log(aᵇ) = b × log(a)

therefore,

we get

(3x-5)log(10) = xlog(7)

now,

log(10) = 1

and

log(7) = 0.84509

thus,

( 3x - 5 ) × 1 = 0.84509x

3x - 0.84509x - 5 = 0

2.15491x = 5

x = 2.3202
