Mathematics

Answer:

x = -2/3

Step-by-step explanation:

27 ^(x+2) = 81

Rewrite 27 as a power of 3

27 = 3^3

Rewrite 81 as a power of 3

3^4

3^3^(x+2) = 3^4

We know that a^b^c = a^(b*c)

3^3*(x+2) = 3^4

3^(3x+6) = 3^4

The bases are the same so the exponents are the same

3x+6 = 4

Subtract

6 from each side

3x+6-6 =4-6

3x = -2

Divide by 3

3x/3 =-2/3

x = -2/3

Answer:

x = -2/3

Step-by-step explanation:

We'll employ our knowledge of indices and exponential resolution to solve the problem.

First, we'll make efforts to resolve this figures such that the bases will be of thesame figure.

Our priority will be on "27" and "81"

27= 3*3*3

27 = 3^3

81 = 3*3*3*3

81 = 3^4

Therefore, let's solve now!

27^(x + 2) = 81

3^3 (x + 2) = 3^4

We'll then use the exponent 3 to expand the bracket that is 3(x+2)

3 ^ (3x + 6) = 3^4

The bases in 3 will cancel out! The equation becomes:

3x + 6 = 4

3x = 4 - 6

3x = -2

x = -2/3

Elena-2011 [213]

Answer:

0.66

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that a  survey of athletes at a high school is conducted, and the following facts are discovered: 24% of the athletes are football players, 55% are basketball players, and 13% of the athletes play both football and basketball.

Probability for a randomly chosen person is either a football player or a basketball player

=Prob for football player + Prob for basketball player -Prob for both

= 24%+55%-13%\\=66%

i.e. Probability reqd  =0.66

What is the maximum slope to f(x)= e^(-x^2)?
MA_775_DIABLO [31]
F'(x)=-2x{e^(-x²)}
Equating f'(x)=0,
i.e,

-2x{e^(-x²)}=0....eqn(i)
For maximum slope:
Differentiating (i) wrt x,we get,
4x² {e^(-x²)}-2 {e^(-x²)}=0
{e^(-x²)} [4x²-2]=0
4x²-2=0
x=1/√2

If f(x)=y then f'(x)=dy/dx=slope
So,
Maximum slope
= f'(x)
= -2x{e^(-x²)}
=-2×(1/✓2){e^(-1/✓2)²}
= -✓2{e^(-1/2)}
=(-sqrt 2/sqrt e)
=-sqrt(2/e)➡c is correct
