Dan and Paul share some money in the ratio 11:5. Dan decides this is unfair so he gives Paul £30 of his share to make the ratio 1:1. How much did Paul originally have?

logv3(x+2)=1

rewrite in exponential form:

logb(x) = y is equal to b^y =x

b = 3, y = 1

now solve for x:

3^1 = x+2)

x = 3-2

x = 1

see the picture for the graph.

what is the answer?

i agree because i see the other persons thinking is clear
