Answer:

  x = log(1+√2) ≈ 0.38277569

Step-by-step explanation:

Let z = 10^x. Then the equation can be rewritten ...

  z^2 -2z -1 = 0

  z^2 -2z +1 -2 = 0 . . . . rewrite to a form with a square

  (z -1)^2 = 2 . . . . . . . . . add 2

  z -1 = ±√2 . . . . . . . . . . square root

  z = 1 ± √2 . . . . . . . . . . add 1

From the definition of z, we know it must be positive, so the only viable solution here is ...

  z = 10^x = 1+√2

  x = log(1+√2)

  x ≈ 0.38277569

The area of a triangular flower bed in the park has an area of
blagie [28]

Answer:

b = 24 ft

h = 10 ft

Step-by-step explanation:

120 = ½hb

120 = ½h(3h - 6)

240 = h(3h - 6)

240 = 3h² - 6h

 80 = h² - 2h

    0 = h² - 2h - 80

    0 = (h - 10)(h + 8)

    h = 10 ft or -8 ft

 we ignore -8 as it makes no sense for a triangle side length.

b = 3(10) - 6 = 24 ft

Ray Of Light [21]

The square is shown with a side length of 8 inches.

The area of a square is s^2, which can also be written as s x s, where a is the length of the side.

Area of the square would be 8 x 8 = 64 square inches.

The area of a circle is pi x r^2, where r is the radius. R is given as 3 inches.

The area of the circle is 3.14 x 3^2 = 28.26 square inches.

The shaded area is the square minus the circle.

The shaded area = 64 - 28.26 = 25.74 square inches.

The answer is 25.74 square inches.
