she added instead of multiplied'

Step-by-step explanation:

She probably was supposed to multiply, instead of add.

Step-by-step explanation:

First multiply 24 and 32, which is 768.

Second multiply 768 and 12, which is 9216

9216 is the answer.

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
