The main reason behind this is using properties of logarithm .

when solving

log_2(x+2)+log_2(x-3)=3

There you use multiplication property and make addition to multiplication then you get extraneous solution because in plenty of cases they occur

(-2)²=(2)²

But

-2≠2

Same happens in case of logarithm

A video game requires at least 4 points to advance. Each solved puzzle is worth two points. Each solved riddle is worth 1 point.

Gwar [14]

Answer:

The graph in the attached figure

Step-by-step explanation:

Let

x -----> the number of solved puzzles

y -----> the number of solved riddles

we know that

$2x+y \geq 4$

The solution of the inequality is the shaded area above the solid line $2x+y=4$

The slope of the solid line is negative $m=-2$

The y-intercept of the solid line is the point (0,4)

The x-intercept of the solid line is the point (2,0)

therefore
