  • i cant access bios on my hp laptop?

    okay, so I have a hp pavilion g6 laptop. im trying to disable the fn key. right now if I just press the f keys without holding down the fn key, the f keys do some laptop settings like sound,brightness, etc. im trying to make it so I can press the f keys without the fn keys like a regular computer. I want to use the f keys for controls on a game. I tried to do some research but haven't found anything that solves it. I saw where some people fixed it by pressing f10 right after turning on the laptop, I tried that. I got to a blank black screen that said f10...BIOS setup options in the lower left corner. I pressed f10 again, and it doesn't do anything. nothing I tried pressing did anything, it just seemed like it was frozen. so I turned the power button off and on and tried again, same thing happened. does anyone know how I can get into the BIOS to disable the fn key? Also I just got this laptop a few weeks ago. The guy said it had been returned after brief use and the tech guys at best buy tested all of it and made sure its good as new. So basically, I get to the part where it says f10... BIOS setup options, but when I press f10 nothing happens. Whoever has a working solution will get 10 points, thank you

  • help with a log question; solving for x in the exponent?

    ive forgotten how to solve for the variable if its in the exponent, hopefully someone can refresh my memory. heres a couple problems

    log(2)30=x+1

    2^(x+1)=30... how do you solve for x

    250000=10000(1+.1)^r

    and then one more, : write the exponential function whose graph passes through (0,-4) and (-4, -64)

    Thanks for the help
