9 POWERED C = 243 (INDICES)

9^c = 243

3^(c)*2 = 243

3^(c)*2 = 3^5

Since the bases are the same the powers can be equated.

2*c =5

c = 5/2

c = 2 1/2

Check

9^2.5 = 243

rick has $1400 and sally has $1500

step-by-step explanation:

to find amount of money rick has after 10 years :

principal = $1000 , time = 10 years , rate = 4% annually

to find amount of money sally has after 10 years :

her friend gives to pay her $50 per year, therefore money she has after 10 years = 50 × 10 = $500

also, sally gets $1000 after 10 years,

therefore, total amount of money sally has after 10 years = 500 + 1000 = $1500

so, after 10 years : rick has $1400 and sally has $1500

your answer would be 12
