Answer:
x ≈ -4.419
Step-by-step explanation:
Separate the constants from the exponentials and write the two exponentials as one. (This puts x in one place.) Then use logarithms.
0 = 2^(x-1) -3^(x+1)
3^(x+1) = 2^(x-1) . . . . . add 3^(x+1)
3×3^x = (1/2)2^x . . . . .factor out the constants
(3/2)^x = (1/2)/3 . . . . . divide by 3×2^x
Take the log:
x·log(3/2) = log(1/6)
x = log(1/6)/log(3/2) . . . . . divide by the coefficient of x
x ≈ -4.419

<em>Comment on alternate solution</em>
Once you get the exponential terms on opposite sides of the equal sign, you can take logs at that point, if you like. Then solve the resulting linear equation for x.
(x+1)log(3) = (x-1)log(2)
x=(log(2)+log(3))/(log(2)-log(3))
Answer:
3
Step-by-step explanation:
1/4 = 2/8
With 7/8 pounds of meat, you can make 3 patties (6/8) and have 1/8 pound leftover
F, D, C
F: 5 x 3 = 15
D: 7 x 3= 21 - 2 = 19
C: 5 x 3 = 15 + 6 = 21
Answer:
21 units. your answer is false.
Step-by-step explanation:
-6 to 0 = 6
0 to 15 = 15
you are counting Units not physical numbers. don't forget that!
correct distance is 21
