Answer:

x = 3.3

Step-by-step explanation:

A equation is given to us and we need to solve out for x. The given equation is ,

Take log on both sides with base as " 10" . We have ,

Simplify using the property of log ,  , we have ,

Simplify ,

Again simplify using the property of log ,

We know that log 5 = 0.69 and log 2 = 0.301 , on substituting this , we have ,

Simplify the RHS ,

Add 2 both sides ,

Hence the Value of x is 3.30 .

What is 78.32+6.784?
IceJOKER [234]

Answer: 85.104

Step-by-step explanation: Adding decimals is something you will use a lot. Take the time to learn it now. So when you are adding decimals there are some important things to keep in mind. 1. Line the decimals up. Let me explain. Lets do a example. Lets say its 14.5+ 15.74. The first thing you would need to do is line them up like this-->

14.5

15.74

+____

After you do that, Do you see a black space next to the 14.5? When adding decimals this is a big nono. So what you can do is add a 0. Adding a zero is only applicable when you have one number that has 1 more number(its my best way to explain it).( so like you would add a zero if your equation was like 23.5 +18.99. but you wouldn't do it if it was 17.5+19.4).  Example equation should look like this:

 14.5 0<---- add the zero!

 15.74

+____

Step 2. Put the decimal down to where it lines up. Like this:

 14.5 0

 15.74

+____

     .<------ make sure it lines up!

Step 3. Add regularly. Just ignore the decimal in the equation and just add. The answer would be 30.24. If you don't know how to add, I don't think your old enough for a brainly account:)

Step 4. Remove the zero. Zero as a number means nothing. So its ok in math to add a zero at the end of a decimal. So 4.0 is the same as 4 or 4.0000000000000. So when you have another problem, and your answer is something like 95.320, you can just remove the zero. So it would be 95.32:)

Hope I Helped! (this took me a long time to type out)

how do you solve -2.8k-4.31=-15.79 or 1.9m-3=-12.31 or 2.1a+1.4=-14.245 or 3.8n-4.8=-21.9 ?
Effectus [21]
Consider posting each question separately, please.

Given   <span>-2.8k-4.31=-15.79 :

1) Isolate the "k" term on the left by adding 4.31 to both sides of this equation.
2) Simplify the right side.
3) Divide both sides by -2.8 and you'll have the answer:  k = ?</span>
