Q. Let the function h h be defined as h(x)=c2xc+k h(x)=c \cdot 2^{x-c}+k , where c c and k k are constants. If h(c)=20 h(c)=20 , which of the following equations correctly expresses c c in terms of k? k ?
  1. Substitute xx with cc: We are given the function h(x)=c2(xc)+kh(x) = c \cdot 2^{(x-c)} + k and the condition h(c)=20h(c) = 20. We need to find the value of cc in terms of kk. First, let's substitute xx with cc in the function h(x)h(x) to apply the given condition h(c)=20h(c) = 20. cc00
  2. Simplify using exponents: Now, let's simplify the equation using the property of exponents that any number to the power of 00 is 11.
    h(c)=c20+kh(c) = c \cdot 2^0 + k
    h(c)=c1+kh(c) = c \cdot 1 + k
    h(c)=c+kh(c) = c + k
  3. Substitute h(c)h(c) with 2020: We know that h(c)=20h(c) = 20, so we can substitute 2020 for h(c)h(c) in the equation.\newline20=c+k20 = c + k
  4. Isolate cc in equation: To express cc in terms of kk, we need to isolate cc on one side of the equation. We do this by subtracting kk from both sides of the equation.\newline20k=c+kk20 - k = c + k - k\newline20k=c20 - k = c
  5. Final expression for cc: We have now expressed cc in terms of kk. The equation is:\newlinec=20kc = 20 - k\newlineThis is the final answer.
