Answer:
To solve an exponential equation, take the log of both sides, and solve for the variable.
Step-by-step explanation:
Example 1: Solve for x in the equation tex2html_wrap_inline119 .

Answer:
The formula to find the surface area of a sphere is to take the radius of the sphere and square it and multiply that amount by pi and then multiply that by 4. This is written algebraically as S=4πr2, where S is the surface area, r is the radius, and the value of π is 3.14.
Evaluating each expression means to simplify the expression down to it's simplest form.
Answer:
(a) y(x)=53+7x
(b) 179
Step-by-step explanation:
Since the first row has 60 seats and next row has 7 additional seats then we can represent it as
First row=60
Second row=60+7=67
Third row=67+7=74
The difference is always 7. If you deduct 7 from dirst row we get 60-7=53 seats
To get rhe number of seats in any row x then let y be the number of seats in row x
y=53+7(x)
For raw 1
Y=53+7(1)=60
For raw 2
Y=53+7(2)=67
Therefore, the formula for number of seats at any row will be
y(x)=53+7(x)
(b)
Using the above formula
y(x)=53+7(x)
Replace x with 18 hence
Y(18)=53+7*(18)=179 seats
