Answer:

  • 9 digit long

Let the number of digits be n and the number of elements in set be s.

<h3>When n = 1</h3>
  • The set contains 1-digit numbers, 1 through 9,
  • The set consists of 10 - 1 = 9 numbers.

<h3>When n = 2</h3>
  • The set contains 2-digit numbers, 10 through 99,
  • The set contains 100 - 10 = 90 numbers.

<h3>When n = 3</h3>
  • The set contains 3-digit numbers, 100 through 999,
  • The set contains 1000 - 100 = 900 numbers.

The pattern we see helps us determine the relationship between s and n as follows.

When set contains n-digit numbers, the set contains:

  • s = 10ⁿ - 10ⁿ⁻¹ = 10ⁿ⁻¹(10 - 1) = 9*10ⁿ⁻¹ elements

We have s known, substitute it into equation above and solve for n:

  • 900000000 = 9*10ⁿ¹
  • 100000000 = 10ⁿ⁻¹
  • 10⁸ = 10ⁿ⁻¹
  • n - 1 = 8
  • n = 9

The numbers in the set s are 9-digit long.

Answer:

2. m = b³ (= 216)

3. logp(x) = -4

Step-by-step explanation:

2. The given equation can be written using the change of base formula as ...

... log(m)/log(b) + 9·log(b)/log(m) = 6

If we define x = log(m)/log(b), then this becomes ...

... x + 9/x = 6

Subtracting 6 and multiplying by x gives ...

... x² -6x +9 = 0

... (x -3)² = 0 . . . . . factored

... x = 3 . . . . . . . . . value of x that makes it true

Remembering that x = log(m)/log(b), this means

... 3 = log(m)/log(b)

... 3·log(b) = log(m) . . . . . multiply by the denominator; next, take the antilog

... m = b³ . . . . . . the expression you're looking for

___

3. Substituting the given expression for y, the equation becomes ...

... logp(x^2·(p^5)^3) = 7

... logp(x^2) + logp(p^15) = 7 . . . . . use the rule for log of a product

... 2logp(x) + 15 = 7 . . . . . . . . . . . . . use the definition of a logarithm

... 2logp(x) = -8 . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . subtract 15

... logp(x) = -4 . . . . . . divide by 2

COS Find the quotient when the polynomial expression is divided by a binomial Find the quotient ANSWER SOLUTION CHOICES X2+11x+
ryzh [129]

Answer:

x=−1 or x=−9

Step-by-step explanation:

x2+11x+10=x+1

Step 1: Subtract x+1 from both sides.

x2+11x+10−(x+1)=x+1−(x+1)

x2+10x+9=0

Step 2: Factor left side of equation.

(x+1)(x+9)=0

Step 3: Set factors equal to 0.

x+1=0 or x+9=0

x=−1 or x=−9
