Let the Length of River D be : P

Given : River C is 100 Miles Longer than River D

⇒ Length of River C = P + 100

Given : The Sum of Both Rivers is 5570 Miles

⇒ P + (P + 100) = 5570

⇒ 2P + 100 = 5570

⇒ 2P = 5570 - 100

⇒ 2P = 5470

⇒ P = 2735

⇒ Length of River D is : 2735 Miles

⇒ Length of River C is : (P + 100) = (2735 + 100) = 2835 Miles

A patient drinks 5 12ounce cups of coffee daily. The doctor recommends cutting back 60%, how many ounces of coffee can the patie

maksim [4K]

The patient is recommended to take 24 ounces of coffee per day.

<u>Step-by-step explanation:</u>

Patient normal intake of coffee daily = 5 times 12 ounces

= 5 × 12 = 60 ounces

Doctor recommends to cut off 60 % of the normal intake of coffee.

And advised to take only 40 % of the daily intake of coffee.

So 60 % of 60 ounces can be calculated as,

$$\frac{60 \times 60}{100}$ = 36 ounces

40 % of 60 ounces is 24 ounces.

So 60 - 36 = 24 ounces of coffee per day

Rewrite the following expression as a single logarithm. Which letter is the correct answer?

Pepsi [2]

Answer: OPTION B

Step-by-step explanation:

You need to remember the logarithms properties:

$log(a)+log(b)=log(ab)\\\\log(a)-log(b)=log(\frac{a}{b})\\\\log(a)^b=blog(a)$

Then, you can rewrite the expression as a single logarithm:

$log(x+3)^2+log(x-7)^3-log(x-2)^5-log(x^2)\\\\log((x+3)^2(x-7)^3)-log(\frac{(x-2)}{(x^2)})\\\\log(\frac{(x+3)^2(x-7)^3}{x^2(x-2)^5})$

This matches with the option B.
