OpenStudy (anonymous):

Thank you

OpenStudy (solomonzelman):

\(\large\color{slate}{ \frac{\LARGE 3}{\LARGE 2}x+\frac{\LARGE 7}{\LARGE 2}=2^x }\) like this?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

OpenStudy (anonymous):

I have no clue how to solve this equation

OpenStudy (solomonzelman):

OpenStudy (anonymous):

ur in elementary

OpenStudy (solomonzelman):

I can do this, \(\large\color{black}{ y=\frac{\LARGE 3}{\LARGE 2}x+\frac{\LARGE 7}{\LARGE 2}-2^x }\) https://www.desmos.com/calculator/sv45hdkhfa

OpenStudy (solomonzelman):

the points where the graph hits zero, are the solutions

OpenStudy (anonymous):

ok thank you

OpenStudy (anonymous):

is that like -1 and 3

OpenStudy (solomonzelman):

about that

OpenStudy (anonymous):
