Question:
Approximate log base b of x, log_b(x).
Of course x can't be negative, and b > 1.
Answer:
f(x) = (-1/x + 1) / (-1/b + 1)
Step-by-step explanation:
log(1) is zero for any base.
log is strictly increasing.
log_b(b) = 1
As x descends to zero, log(x) diverges to -infinity
Graph of f(x) = (-1/x + 1)/a is reminiscent of log(x), with f(1) = 0.
Find a such that f(b) = 1
1 = f(b) = (-1/b + 1)/a
a = (-1/b + 1)
Substitute for a:
f(x) = (-1/x + 1) / (-1/b + 1)
f(1) = 0
f(b) = (-1/b + 1) / (-1/b + 1) = 1
The rate of change of the linear equation is 
Explanation:
The given two coordinates are
and 
To determine the rate of change, let us use the formula,

Substituting the coordinates in the equation, we get,

Simplifying, we have,

Dividing, we get,

Thus, the rate of change of the linear equation is

Hello,
a solution is 40,40,40,40,....,40
Answer:
The answer is given below
Step-by-step explanation:
a)
Let us assume Patricia baked x number of cakes. She put half of the cupcakes (i.e x/2) equally into 6 big boxes.
6 big boxes contained
cakes, therefore 1 big box would contain
cakes.
Let us assume she put the other half into 14 small boxes, therefore each small box would contain
cakes.
There were 45 cupcakes in 3 big boxes and 8 small boxes altogether. That is:
Therefore Patricia baked 84 cup cakes
b)
She sold all the small boxes and collected $189, i.e she sold 14 small box for $189. Each small box = $189/14 = $13.5
