Answer:

3.2

Explanation:

This is the correct answer on ed-genuity.

To find the answer, first change both sides of the equation into change of base formula. You'll end up with:


y_(1) : (logx)/(log2) \\y_(2) : (log3)/(log5) + 1

When you plug these into a graphing calculator, like the one rd-genuity gives you, you'll get 3.2 as the x-value of where the two lines intersect (rounded to the nearest tenth).

Hope this helps! :)
