y = 25\cdot~3^x\\ \\ 1170 = 25\cdot~3^x\\ \\ \frac{1170}{25} = 3^x\\ \\ \frac{243}{5} = 3^x\\ \\ log\ \frac{243}{5} = log~3^x\\ \\ log~243-log~5=x~log~3\\ \\ 
 log~3^5-log~5=x~log~3\\ \\ 5~log~3-log~5 = x~log~3\\ \\ 5(0,48)-0,70= 0,48x\\ \\ 2,4-0,7 = 0,48x\\ \\ 1,7=0,48x\\ \\ x=\frac{1,7}{0,48}\\ \\ \large{\boxed{x=3,54\ h}}

Simplify the expression x^2+x-2/8x^2+4x/3x^2+10x+8
irina [24]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

x² + x  - 2 = x² - x +2x -2 = x(x - 1) + 2*(x-1)  = (x-1)(x+2)

8x² + 4x = 4x ( 2x + 1)

3x² + 10x + 8 = 3x² + 6x + 4x + 4*2  =3x  * (x + 2) + 4 * ( x + 2) = (x + 2)(3x + 4)
