gtnhenbr [62]

Answer: 6.6 miles

Step-by-step explanation:

Since he finished 22% of his skiing in the morning, that means he still has 78% (100% - 22%) of his skiing left.

The remaining 78% is equivalent to 23.4 miles. We need to know the total miles of the skiing. This will be:

78% of x = 23.4

0.78 × x = 23.4

0.78x = 23.4

x = 23.4 / 0.78

x = 30 miles

Since the total skiing is 30 miles and he has 23.4 miles left, the miles covered in the morning will be:

= 30 - 23.4

= 6.6 miles

The scale of a map is known to be 1: 500 000. Find the actual distance (in km) between a mall and the bus interchange if the rep

Evgen [1.6K]

Step-by-step explanation:

when the scale says 1:500000, then that means 1 unit in the map corresponds to 500000 units in reality.

and so, 3.2 cm on the map are

3.2 × 500000 cm in reality.

3.2 × 500000 = 1,600,000 cm = 16,000 m = 16 km

Answer:

The perimeter of triangle is 33 meters.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that the triangle is Equivalent Triangle where all angles and sides are equal, so we can assume that:

7x - 17 = 4x - 5

7x - 4x = 17 - 5

3x = 12

x = 12 ÷ 3

x = 4

OR:

4x - 5 = 2x + 3

4x - 2x = 3 + 5

2x = 8

x = 8 ÷ 2

x = 4

Substitute x = 4 into all expressions:

7x - 17 = 7(4) - 17 = 11 meters

4x - 5 = 4(4) - 5 = 11 meters

2x + 3 = 2(4) + 3 = 11 meters

In order to find out the perimeters, you have to add up all the sides:

P = 11 + 11 + 11

P = 33 meters

Please help! Its for my big test tomorrow!

Travka [436]

Answer:

# The solution x = -5

# The solution is x = 1

# The solution is x = 6.4

# The solution is x = 4

# The solution is 1.7427

# The solution is 0.190757

Step-by-step explanation:

* Lets revise some rules of the exponents and the logarithmic equation

# Exponent rules:

1- b^m × b^n = b^(m + n) ⇒ in multiplication if they have same base

we add the power

2- b^m ÷ b^n = b^(m – n) ⇒ in division if they have same base we

subtract the power

3- (b^m)^n = b^(mn) ⇒ if we have power over power we multiply

them

4- a^m × b^m = (ab)^m ⇒ if we multiply different bases with same

power then we multiply them ad put over the answer the power

5- b^(-m) = 1/(b^m) (for all nonzero real numbers b) ⇒ If we have

negative power we reciprocal the base to get positive power

6- If a^m = a^n , then m = n ⇒ equal bases get equal powers

7- If a^m = b^m , then a = b or m = 0

# Logarithmic rules:

1- $log_{a}b=n-----a^{n}=b$

2- $loga_{1}=0---log_{a}a=1---ln(e)=1$

3- $log_{a}q+log_{a}p=log_{a}qp$

4- $log_{a}q-log_{a}p=log_{a}\frac{q}{p}$

5- $log_{a}q^{n}=nlog_{a}q$

* Now lets solve the problems

# $3^{x+1}=9^{x+3}$

- Change the base 9 to 3²

∴ $9^{x+3}=3^{2(x+3)}=3^{2x+6}$

∴ $3^{x+1}=3^{2x+6}$

- Same bases have equal powers

∴ x + 1 = 2x + 6 ⇒ subtract x and 6 from both sides

∴ 1 - 6 = 2x - x

∴ -5 = x

* The solution x = -5

# ㏒(9x - 2) = ㏒(4x + 3)

- If ㏒(a) = ㏒(b), then a = b

∴ 9x - 2 = 4x + 3 ⇒ subtract 4x from both sides and add 2 to both sides

∴ 5x = 5 ⇒ divide both sides by 5

∴ x = 1

* The solution is x = 1

# $log_{6}(5x+4)=2$

- Use the 1st rule in the logarithmic equation

∴ 6² = 5x + 4

∴ 36 = 5x + 4 ⇒ subtract 4 from both sides

∴ 32 = 5x ⇒ divide both sides by 5

∴ 6.4 = x

* The solution is x = 6.4

# $log_{2}x+log_{2}(x-3)=2$

- Use the rule 3 in the logarithmic equation

∴ $log_{2}x(x-3)=2$

- Use the 1st rule in the logarithmic equation

∴ 2² = x(x - 3) ⇒ simplify

∴ 4 = x² - 3x ⇒ subtract 4 from both sides

∴ x² - 3x - 4 = 0 ⇒ factorize it into two brackets

∴ (x - 4)(x + 1) = 0 ⇒ equate each bract by 0

∴ x - 4 = 0 ⇒ add 4 to both sides

∴ x = 4

OR

∵ x + 1 = 0 ⇒ subtract 1 from both sides

∴ x = -1

- We will reject this answer because when we substitute the value

of x in the given equation we will find $log_{2}(-1)$ and this

value is undefined, there is no logarithm for negative number

* The solution is x = 4

# $log_{4}11.2=x$

- You can use the calculator directly to find x

∴ x = 1.7427

* The solution is 1.7427

# $2e^{8x}=9.2$ ⇒ divide the both sides by 2

∴ $e^{8x}=4.6$

- Insert ln for both sides

∴ $lne^{8x}=ln(4.6)$

- Use the rule $ln(e^{n})=nln(e)$ ⇒ ln(e) = 1

∴ 8x = ln(4.6) ⇒ divide both sides by 8

∴ x = ln(4.6)/8 = 0.190757

* The solution is 0.190757
