Find the solution of 3^{4x} = 9^{(x-1)/2}.

First, recognise that 3^2 = 9. Recall the rule for multiplying indices, that (a^b)^c = a^{bc}. Then, substitute 3^2 in place of 9 to get 3^{4x} = (3^2)^{(x-1)/2}. Use the rule for multiplying indices, so tha...

f'(x) = 3x^2 - 5cos(3x) + 90. Find f(x) and f''(x).

Finding f(x) requires integrating the function f'(x), because f(x) is the integral of the given function f'(x). So {integralsymbol} f'(x) dx = {integralsymbol} (3x^2 - 5cos(3x) + 90) dx = x^3 - (5/3)sin(3x) ...

Why do windows around the house steam up?

The answer to this question is rather simple. There is a natural pressure/temperature difference between the inside of the house and the outside. The humidity in the warm air is much greater than that of col...

Estimate the answer to: (4.28 x sqrt(99))/7.83

4.28 rounds down to 4; sqrt(99) is approximately 10; 7.83 rounds up to 8 So an appropriate estimate would be: (4x10)/8 = 40/8 = 5
