\quad \huge \quad \quad \boxed{ \tt \:Answer }

\qquad \tt \rightarrow \: x = 3

____________________________________

\large \tt Solution  \: :

\qquad \tt \rightarrow \:  log_{2}(x - 1)  log_{2}(x + 5)  = 4

\qquad \tt \rightarrow \:  log_{2} \{(x - 1)(x + 5) \} = 4

[ log (x) + log (y) = log (xy) ]

\qquad \tt \rightarrow \: ( x - 1)(x + 5) =  {2}^{4}

\qquad \tt \rightarrow \:  {x}^{2}  + 5x - x - 5 =  16

\qquad \tt \rightarrow \:  {x}^{2}  + 4x - 5 - 16 = 0

\qquad \tt \rightarrow \:  {x}^{2}  + 4x -21 = 0

\qquad \tt \rightarrow \:  {x}^{2}  + 7x - 3x - 21 = 0

\qquad \tt \rightarrow \:  x(x + 7) - 3(x + 7) = 0

\qquad \tt \rightarrow \: (x + 7)(x - 3) = 0

\qquad \tt \rightarrow \: x =  - 7 \:  \: or \:  \: x = 3

The only possible value of x is 3, since we can't operate logarithm with a negative integer in it.

\qquad \tt \rightarrow \: x = 3

1. Write the equation in standard form. Identify the important features of the graph:
NeTakaya

Answer:

  1. (x-4.5)^2 +(y +5)^2 = 30.25
  2. x = (1/8)y^2 +(1/2)y +(1/2)
  3. y^2/36 -x^2/64 = 1
  4. x^2/16 +y^2/25 = 1

Step-by-step explanation:

1. Complete the square for both x and y by adding a constant equal to the square of half the linear term coefficient. Subtract 15, and rearrange to standard form.

  (x^2 -9x +4.5^2) +(y^2 +10y +5^2) = 4.5^2 +5^2 -15

  (x -4.5)^2 +(y +5)^2 = 30.25 . . . . . write in standard form

Important features: center = (4.5, -5); radius = 5.5.

__

2. To put this in the form x=f(y), we need to add 8x, then divide by 8.

  x = (1/8)y^2 +(1/2)y +(1/2)

Important features: vertex = (0, -2); focus = (2, -2); horizontal compression factor = 1/8.

__

3. We want y^2/a^2 -x^2/b^2 = 1 with a=36 and b=(36/(3/4)^2) = 64:

  y^2/36 -x^2/64 = 1

__

4. In the form below, "a" is the semi-axis in the x-direction. Here, that is 8/2 = 4. "b" is the semi-axis in the y-direction, which is 5 in this case. We want x^2/a^2 +y^2/b^2 = 1 with a=4 and b=5.

  x^2/16 +b^2/25 = 1

Factor –7x3 + 21x2 + 3x – 9 by grouping. What is the resulting expression?
sergeinik [125]
Take the first 2 and take out -7x2. bringing it to (-7x2)(x-3)+(3x-9)
then take out 3 on the right side.
-7x^2 (x-3)+3 (x-3)
factors to (3-7x2)(x-3)
