Step-by-step explanation:

Step 1: Define

Point (0, -5)

Point (-2, 1)

Step 2: Find slope m

Simply plug in the 2 coordinates into the slope formula to find slope m

answer: solve 5\cdot 2^x=2405⋅2  

x

=2405, dot, 2, start superscript, x, end superscript, equals, 240.

solution

to solve for xxx, we must first isolate the exponential part. to do this, divide both sides by 555 as shown below. we do not multiply the 555 and the 222 as this goes against the order of operations!

\begin{aligned} 5\cdot 2^x& =240 2^x& =48 \\ \end{aligned}  

5⋅2  

x
