How do i go about doing this problem?

23. 4 units

24. 4 units

The point C is on the number line at -1 and the point E is at 3. We count the number of units from C to 0, which is 1 and from 0 to E, which is 3. We add the sum, 3 + 1 = 4.

Another way to show it is 3 - (-1) = 3 + 1 = 4.

Thus CE = 4

We repeat the process for BD. -4 -(0) = -4 - 0 = -4. However, distances are positive so we report its opposite, 4.

Thus BD = 4

Therefore CE = 4 and BD = 4

x =-.20752

step-by-step explanation:

4^(x+2)=12

4^(x+2)=12

take the log base 4 on each side

log 4 (4^(x+2) = log 4(12)

we know log b(a^y) = y log b (a)

(x+2) log 4(4) = log 4 (12)

x+2 = log 4 (12)

we know   logb c = loga c/loga b

we want to convert to base 10   so a = 10

by default, we do not write the 10   c = 4   and b = 10

log4 10 = log 12/log 4

log4 10 = log 12/ log 4

x+2 = log 12/ log 4

subtract 2 from each side

x +2 -2 = log 12/ log 4 -2

x = 1.79248125 -2

x =-.20752

it is a secret for it not to be compromised sorry
