For one particular homeroom, the typical ratio of students absent to students present is 1 : 14. One day, students from this same homeroom miss school to compete in a math competition. On that day, there are 22 students in class and the ratio of students absent to students present is 4 : 11. How many students are absent on a typical day for this homeroom?

i think it might be a but you might want a second opinion

answer: solve 5\cdot 2^x=2405⋅2  

x

=2405, dot, 2, start superscript, x, end superscript, equals, 240.

solution

to solve for xxx, we must first isolate the exponential part. to do this, divide both sides by 555 as shown below. we do not multiply the 555 and the 222 as this goes against the order of operations!

\begin{aligned} 5\cdot 2^x& =240 2^x& =48 \\ \end{aligned}  

5⋅2  

x

2  

x

​    

=240

=48
