Since the base of our logarithmic function is unknown, we can just call it:

f(x)=\log_k(x)

We are then given the point, (4,-2), so plugging in 4 for x and -2 for f(x) we get:

-2=\log_{k}(4) \implies \\ -2=\frac{\log{4}}{\log{k}} \implies \\ -2\log{k}=\log{4} \implies \\ -2\log{k}=2\log{2} \implies \\ \log{k}=\frac{2\log{2}}{-2} \implies\\ \log{k}=-\log{2} \implies\\ k=10^{-\log{2}} \implies \\ k=\frac{1}{10^\log{2}}} \implies \\ k=\frac{1}{2}

So our base is 1/2.

A rectangle has an area of x^2-11x+30 and the length of x-5. What is the width?
olya-2409 [2.1K]

Answer:

x - 6

Step-by-step explanation:

A = L x W

A / L = W

x^2-11x+30 / x -5  = W (Simplify the numerator)

(x - 6) x ( x - 5) / x - 5  = W     (Cancel the similar ones which is (x - 5) )

x - 6 = W

Hope that helps
