question 1- The points P(3, -4), Q(9, -5), and R(5, -1) are the vertices of a triangle. What is the approximate length of side RQ? Round to the hundredth.

question 2- A line passes through the points (0, 4) and (2, -2). A second line passes through the points (1, -9) and (7, -7). At what point do the two lines intersect?

(-5,-28)

i graphed to on desmos.

i think the answer is d im not sure

answer: solve 5\cdot 2^x=2405⋅2  

x

=2405, dot, 2, start superscript, x, end superscript, equals, 240.

solution

to solve for xxx, we must first isolate the exponential part. to do this, divide both sides by 555 as shown below. we do not multiply the 555 and the 222 as this goes against the order of operations!

\begin{aligned} 5\cdot 2^x& =240 2^x& =48 \\ \end{aligned}  

5⋅2  

x

=240
