Based on the amount of oranges bought, those sold at a profit and those sold at a loss, the overall profit is 14.2%

<h3>What is the overall profit?</h3>

Assume that the buying price was $1 each.

The amount earned from 60% of them is:

= 60% x 100,000 x 1

= $60,000

The profit from selling 50% of the remaining is:

= (50% x 40,000) x 1.60

= $32,000

The loss from selling the other 50%:

= (50% x 40,000) x 0.90

= $22,222.22

Total selling price:

= 60,000 + 32,000 + 22,222.22

= $114,222.22

Total profit:

= (114,222.22 - 100,000) / 100,000

= 14.2%

If log2 5 = k, determine an expression for log32 5 in terms of k.
lukranit [14]

Answer:

log_3_2(5)=\frac{1}{5} k

Step-by-step explanation:

Let's start by using change of base property:

log_b(x)=\frac{log_a(x)}{log_a(b)}

So, for log_2(5)

log_2(5)=k=\frac{log(5)}{log(2)}\hspace{10}(1)

Now, using change of base for log_3_2(5)

log_3_2(5)=\frac{log(5)}{log(32)}

You can express 32 as:

2^5

Using reduction of power property:

log_z(x^y)=ylog_z(x)

log(32)=log(2^5)=5log(2)

Therefore:

log_3_2(5)=\frac{log(5)}{5*log(2)}=\frac{1}{5} \frac{log(5)}{log(2)}\hspace{10}(2)

As you can see the only difference between (1) and (2) is the coefficient \frac{1}{5} :

So:

\frac{log(5)}{log(2)} =k\\

log_3_2(5)=\frac{1}{5} \frac{log(5)}{log(2)} =\frac{1}{5} k
