Mathematics
1 answer:
Crank4 years ago
4 0
To solve this problem, we simply divide the new quantity by the old quantity.

57 ÷ 60 = 0.95

Now convert this decimal into a percent.
We convert decimals into percents by moving the decimal point two places to the right and make it into a % sign.

0.95 = 95%

And finally, subtract 95% from 100%.

100% - 95% = 5%

So, the decrease was 5%.

QUESTION 1

The given logarithmic expression is

\log_4(\frac{1}{16})

We rewrite \frac{1}{16} in the index form to base 4.

This implies that;

\log_4(\frac{1}{16})=\log_4(4^{-2})

We now apply the power rule: \log_a(m^n)=n\log_a(m^n).

\log_4(\frac{1}{16})=-2\log_4(4)

Recall that logarithm of the base is 1.

\log_4(\frac{1}{16})=-2(1)

\log_4(\frac{1}{16})=-2

QUESTION 2

The given logarithm is;

\log_2(\sqrt[5]{32})

\log_2(\sqrt[5]{2^5})

This is the same as;

\log_2(2^{5\times \frac{1}{5}})

\log_2(2^{1})

\log_2(2)=1

4. 7 - (-2y) + y - 9....y = 6
     7 - (-2(6) + 6 - 9 = 7 + 12 + 6 - 9 = 16

7. -x + 8 + 7x - (-1).....x = -10
   -(-10) + 8 + 7(-10) + 1 = 10 + 8 - 70 + 1 = -51

      4(1) + 2(5) - 1 - 8 = 4 + 10 - 9 = 5

13. 2x + 5y - 3x + (-8y)....x = -9, y = 9
      2(-9) + 5(9) - 3(-9) - 8(9) = -18 + 45 + 27 - 72 = -18

Lines b and care parallel.
Vinil7 [7]

Answer:

<h3>Option 2 </h3>

angle 2 = 7x + 1 ( vertically opposite angles)

7x + 1 + 18x + 4 = 180° ( forming linear pair).

7x + 18x + 4 +1 = 180°

25x + 5 = 180°

25x = 180 - 5

25x = 175

x = 7°

angle 2 = 7(7)+ 1

= 50°

Solve. 15 − 6(x + 1) = 12<br> Help nowwwww
Gekata [30.6K]

Answer:

Your answer would be 2

Step-by-step explanation:

15 - 6(x+1) =12

15- 6*x +6*1 = 12

15 - 6x + 6 = 12

15 - 6 + 6x = 12

9 + 6x = 12

9 - 9 + 6x = 12 - 9

6x = 3

x = 2
