Set the whole expression = to 0 and solve for x.
3x^(5/3) - 4x^(7/3) = 0. Factor out x^(5/3): x^(5/3) [3 - 4x^(2/3)] = 0
Then either x^(5/3) = 0, or 3 - 4x^(2/3) = 0.
In the latter case, 4x^(2/3) = 3.
To solve this: mult. both sides by x^(-2/3). Then we have
4x^(2/3)x^(-2/3) = 3x^(-2/3), or 4 = 3x^(-2/3). It'd be easier to work with this if we rewrote it as
4 3
--- = --------------------
1 x^(+2/3)
Then
4
--- = x^(-2/3). Then, x^(2/3) = (3/4), and x = (3/4)^(3/2). According to my 3 calculator, that comes out to x = 0.65 (approx.)
Check this result! subst. 0.65 for x in the given equation. Is the equation then true?
My method here was a bit roundabout, and longer than it should have been. Can you think of a more elegant (and shorter) solution?
Answer:
v = 1/(1+i)
PV(T) = x(v + v^2 + ... + v^n) = x(1 - v^n)/i = 493
PV(G) = 3x[v + v^2 + ... + v^(2n)] = 3x[1 - v^(2n)]/i = 2748
PV(G)/PV(T) = 2748/493
{3x[1 - v^(2n)]/i}/{x(1 - v^n)/i} = 2748/493
3[1-v^(2n)]/(1-v^n) = 2748/493
Since v^(2n) = (v^n)^2 then 1 - v^(2n) = (1 - v^n)(1 + v^n)
3(1 + v^n) = 2748/493
1 + v^n = 2748/1479
v^n = 1269/1479 ~ 0.858

Step-by-step explanation:
Xavier, Yolanda and Zara shared some money.
Let x represent Xavier's share
Let y represent Yolanda's share
Let z represent Zara's share.
Yolanda received 40% more money than Xavier. This means that
y = x + 40/100×x = x + 0.4x = 1.4x
Zara received 60% of Yolanda's share. This means that
z = 60/100× 1.4 = 0.6×1.4 = 0.84x
. If Zara received $1,176, then,
0.84x = 1176
x = 1176/0.84 = 1400
y = 1.4 × 1400 = $1960
z = 0.84 × 1400 = $1176
The sum of the money is
1400 + 1960 + 1176 = $4536

What is the nature of substance if the pH is less than 7?
- Acidity is defined as pH below 7. More than 7 pH is considered basic.
- Each whole pH number below 7 is ten times more acidic than the next higher value since the pH scale is logarithmic.
- For instance, pH 4 is 100 times (10 times 10) more acidic than pH 6, while pH 5 is ten times (10 times) more acidic than pH 4.
What is pH?
- The pH scale determines how acidic or basic water is.
- The range is 0 to 14, with 7 representing neutrality.
- Acidity is indicated by pH values below 7, whereas baseness is shown by pH values above 7.
- In reality, pH is a measurement of the proportion of free hydrogen and hydroxyl ions in water.
