Step-by-step explanation:
log2x = 1 - log(x+4)
log2x = log10 - log(x+4)
log2x = log[10/(x+4)]
2x = 10/(x+4)
2x(x+4) = 10
2x² + 8x - 10 = 0
÷2 both sides of equation
x² + 4x - 5 = 0
(x+5)(x-1) = 0
x = -5, 1
x isn't be -5 because logA, A need to be > 0
So, x value is 1
Answer:
(2, -3)
Step-by-step explanation:
Apparently, the equations are supposed to be ...
The solution for x can be found by subtracting the second equation from the first:
(4x +y) -(3x +y) = (5) -(3)
x = 2 . . . . . . . matches the second answer choice
Y can be found from either equation:
y = 5 - 4x . . . . . subtract 4x from the first equation
y = 5 -4(2) = -3
The solution is (x, y) = (2, -3).
The value of the number is 80,000
