Solve the exponential equation.1259x – 2 = 150(1 point)Responses–1.8847–1.8847–0.1069–0.10690.33750.33751.0378
To solve the exponential equation 1259x – 2 = 150, we can first isolate the term with the variable by adding 2 to both sides:
1259x – 2 + 2 = 150 + 2
This simplifies to:
1259x = 152
Next, we want to isolate the variable x. To do this, we can divide both sides of the equation by 1259:
1259x/1259 = 152/1259
Simplifying further:
x = 152/1259
This cannot be simplified any further, so the solution to the equation is x ≈ 0.1209.
