At the neighborhood block party, Hassan served 3 gallons of hot chocolate and 1/2 of a gallon of apple cider. How much more hot chocolate than apple cider did Hassan serve? Write your answer as a fraction or as a whole or mixed number.

2 gallons and 1/2

Step-by-step explanation:

You just have to subtract 1/2 from 3.

3 - 1/2 = 2 1/2

or

3 - .5 = 2.5

And 2 1/2 is how much more he served.

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
