(Before continuing reading, I took the base to be 3. Please tell me if you didn't want the base to be 3.)
Step-by-step explanation:
I assume 3 is suppose to be the base. Let's list some values that can be written as 3 to some integer.
3^0=1
3^1=3
3^2=9
3^3=27
3^4=81
3^5=243
......
I could have also did negative integer powers, but this is all I really need to convince you that log_3(28) is between 3 and 4.
log_3(28) means the value x such that 3^x=28.
Since 28 is between 27 and 81 in my list above, that means 3^x is between 3^3 and 3^4. This means that x is a value between 3 and 4.
Answer:
-7 3/8
Step-by-step explanation:
The least common denominator of 3, 4, 6, and 8 is 24; converting all of our fractions to that denominator and solving, we have
So our solution is -7 3/8
Answer: 11 magazines
Step-by-step explanation:
1) 20/5 = $4 per magazine
2) 44/4 = 11 magazines
To answer this question you should begin with the coin that has a higher value. If you start with the dime and then just add the correct number of pennies to total $0.40, you will see that you will need 3 dimes ($0.30) and 10 pennies ($0.10).
I used a guess and check strategy starting with 2 dimes.
