Answer:

  (c)  x = 2 and x = -8

Step-by-step explanation:

The rules of logarithms let you rewrite this as a quadratic equation. That equation will have two (2) potential solutions. We know from the domain of the log function that any negative value of x will be an extraneous solution.

__

The rules of logarithms that apply are ...

  \log(a)+\log(b)=\log(ab)\qquad\text{all logarithms to the same base}\\\\\log_b(a)=c\ \Longleftrightarrow\ b^c=a\\\\

__

<h3>take antilogs</h3>

We can rewrite the equation so that only one logarithm is involved. Then we can take antilogs.

  \log_4(x)+\log_4(x+6)=2\\\\\log_4(x(x+6))=2\qquad\text{using the first rule}\\\\4^2=x(x+6)\qquad\text{using the second rule}

__

<h3>solve the quadratic</h3>

Adding (6/2)² = 9 to both sides will "complete the square."

  16 +9 = x² +6x +9 . . . . . . . add 9

  25 = (x +3)²

  ±√25 = x +3 = ±5 . . . . . take the square root(s)

  x = -3 ±5 = {-8, +2}

The two potential solutions are x = 2 and x = -8.

\\ \rm\Rrightarrow log_4x+log_4(x+6)=2

\\ \rm\Rrightarrow log_4(x(x+6))=2

  • Take 4 right

\\ \rm\Rrightarrow x(x+6)=4^2

\\ \rm\Rrightarrow x^2+6x=16

\\ \rm\Rrightarrow x^2+6x-16=0

\\ \rm\Rrightarrow x^2-2x+8x-16=0

\\ \rm\Rrightarrow x(x-2)+8(x-2)=0

\\ \rm\Rrightarrow (x+8)(x-2)=0

\\ \rm\Rrightarrow x=-8\:and\:x=2

Emily wants to know the volume of a beach ball. She deduces that the beach ball has diameter of 12 inches, and then uses the fol
Over [174]

Answer:

D. She used the beach's ball's diameter when she should have used the radius

Step-by-step explanation:

To find the volume of the beach ball, using the volume of a sphere is the right formula to use, which is ⁴/3πr³.

The formula she used is correct.

Since the diameter of the ball is assumed to be 12 inches, what is needed to find the volume is the radius.

Radius (r) = ½(diameter) = ½(12) = 6 in.

This is where Emily made a mistake.

She used the diameter of the beach ball instead of its radius (r) which is needed in the equation.

She should have gotten,

V = ⁴/3(3.14)(6)² = 904.32 cubic inches

Item 16
alexdok [17]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that the dresser is in shape of a rectangular prism

Note that, a rectangular prism has a shape of a cuboid

So, area of the rectangular prism is same as area of a cuboid

A = (2LB + 2LH + 2BH)

Where

L is length

B is breadth

H is height

Then, given the dimension of the rectangular prism to be

2ft by 2ft by 6ft

Then, you can assume that,

Length L = 2ft

Breadth B = 2ft

Height H = 6ft.

NOTE: you can take you assumption anyhow, there is no standard, you will get the same answer.

Then,

A = (2LB + 2LH + 2BH)

A = (2×2×2 + 2×2×6 + 2×2×6)

A = (8 + 24 + 24)

A = 56 ft²

The total surface area of the dresser is 56ft²
