3x + 8y - 36 = 0

the point (x, 3/4) is a solution to the equation shown. what is the value of x?

x = 10

Step-by-step explanation:

Coordinate pairs are given in the form (x,y)

So, since (x,3/4) is a solution, we can say

y = 3/4

Now we plug in y = 3/4 into the equation and solve for x:

So, the value of x is 10

The solution is x = 10

- both graphs increase on their domain.

- the graphs of both functions have the same x-intercept.

- neither graph has a y-intercept.

take the logarithm of both sides (the base of the log doesn't matter):

apply the exponent property - this says that :

distribute the log terms on both sides:

group like terms together:

divide through both sides by the coefficient on :

you can do some additional rewriting here using the properties of the logarithm to simplify things if you like:
