1/2(6x – 2) ; 3 – x are they equivelant?

No they are not equivalent

Step-by-step explanation:If you solve the first one it = to 3x-1 and the second one is 3-x

Nope

Step-by-step explanation:

1/2*6x - 1/2*2

3x - 1

3x- 1 ≠  3 - x

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
