Consider the two equations below. Explain completely the similarities and

differences in how you would solve each equation. Be clear and complete.

3* = 12 and x3 = 12

Here, the given equations,

and

Similarity: In both equations there is only one variable ( i.e. x)

Difference: is an exponential equation while is a polynomial equation.

Now, when we solve an exponential equation we take log in both sides of the equation as follows:

      ( ∵ )

Hence, the solution of the equation is .

While, when we solve a polynomial we find the roots as follows:

By zero product property,

or

If , then

If ,

Then, by quadratic formula,

Hence, the solutions of the equation are ,    and   .

3 ft

step-by-step explanation:

since the triangle is right use pythagoras' identity to solve for a

the square on the hypotenuse is equal to the sum of the squares on the other two sides, that is

a² + 8² = ( )²

a² + 64 = 73 ( subtract 64 from both sides )

a² = 9 ( take the square root of both sides )

a = = 3

she played for 18.75 hours.

step-by-step explanation:

if she played 2/4 of a hour on tuesday. and there is 60 minutes in an hour and 60 divided by 4 is 7.5. and she played 2/4 of an hour on thursday then again 60 divided by 4 is 7.5, you add 7.5+7.5=56.25. now you have to do 1/4 of an hour, it equals 3.75. now you have to add them all up. 3.75+7.5+7.5=18.75

i hope this and i hope you get it right. it took me a while to get this done for you. : )
