The correct answer is x = -90.
To find this, solve using the order of operations. See the example below.
x/-3 - 41 = -11 ----> Add 41 to both sides
x/-3 = 30 ----> Multiply each side by -3
x = -90
The answer would be 14,000,000.00
Lets just choose the first one, 3 4 and 5. According to the Pythagorean Theorem,
a^2+b^2=c^2
So lets plug in our numbers.
3^2+4^2=c^2
The answer should be 5, but lets make sure.
3*3 = 9
4*4 = 16
9+16=c^2
25 = c^2
Square root both sides so:
5=c
And sure enough 5 is the last number on that list. The order doesn’t matter as long as the value you are trying to find is the c^2.
If the base were 1, then the final value would never change...it would be a constant...
If the base is between zero and one, it is an exponential decay equation, so the final value would continually get smaller and smaller...
