Solve the system using multiplication for the linear combination method
6x-3y=3
-2x+6y=14

the solution of the equation is 2.23 ⇒ answer b

step-by-step explanation:

* lets revise the meaning of exponential function

- the form of the exponential function is y = ab^x, where a ≠ 0, b > 0 ,  

  b ≠ 1, and x is any real number

- it has a constant base b

- it has a variable exponent x

- to solve an exponential equation, take the log or ln of both sides,  

  and solve for the variable

* lets solve the problem

∵

- the base is 7 and the exponent is x

- insert ㏑ in both sides

∴

- use the rule

∴ x ㏑(7) = ㏑(77)

- to find x divide both sides by ㏑(7)

∴

* the solution of the equation is 2.23 to the nearest 2 decimal places

you are playing an adventure game on your computer. you come across a troll who won't let you pass and there is no other way to get to the other side of the river except over the bridge he is guarding.

the troll is a nerd. he takes great delight in watching people struggle with his problems. very few get them. he only gives you one chance and then he changes the puzzle. you have to solve this one.

before you are four blocks. they are numbered 11,6, -7,21.

he tells that the answer he wants is minus and between -1 and - 2. you can use +, -, ×, ÷   ( and ) as many times as you like or no times at all. you don't like the way he's looking at you, but you need to cross the bridge. what do you do?
