Function expressed by the formula y=-0.5x. Is there a value of x for which y=-150? If there is such a value, compute it.

x=300

Step-by-step explanation:

STEPS FOR SOLVING LINEAR EQUATION

−150=−0.5x

Divide both sides by −0.5.

−0.5

−150

​

=x

Expand  

−0.5

−150

​

 by multiplying both numerator and the denominator by 10.

−5

−1500

​

=x

Divide −1500 by −5 to get 300.

300=x

Swap sides so that all variable terms are on the left hand side.

x=300

Hope this helped!

the answer is:

the correct option:

b.

to solve the problem, we need to remember how to operate to simplify exponential expressions using the logarithms.

we are given the equation:

then, using placing logarith with base 7 on both sides of the equation, we have:

so, rounding the obtained result to two decimal places (nearest hundreth), we have:

hence, we have that the correct option:

b.

have a nice day!
