^ I converted the above to decimals first and then arranged them that way.
1/20 = 0.05 x 100 = 5%
You would be able to cut 144 pieces of wire from the spool because 270/1 7/8 (or 1.875) equals 144
Elsa's answer is incorrect since there is a solution of the given equation. In the given logarithmic problem, we need to simplify the problem by transposing log2(3x+5) in the opposite side. The equation will now be log2x-log2(3x+5)=4. Using properties of logarithm, we further simplify the problem into a new form log (2x/6x+10)=4. Then transform the equation into base form 10^4=(2x/6x+10) and proceed in solving for x value which is equal to 1.667.
Answer:
-1/3
Step-by-step explanation:
Use the formula, (y2 - y1)/(x2 - x1). In this case, there is a negative slope.
Start from point, (1, 9) and go to point (4, 8).
Use the formula:
(y2 - y1)/(x2 - x1)
Y2 = 8
Y1 = 4
X2 = 9
X1 = 1
(8 - 9)/(4 - 1) = -1/3
Therefore, the slope is -1/3
