Answer:

Answers on edge :)

Step-by-step explanation:

The bases are not the same, so you cannot set 3x - 1 equal to 8.

You can evaluate the logarithm on the right side of the equation to get 3.

You can use the definition of a logarithm to write 3x - 1 = 1000.

This is because logarithm has its own set of properties that is different from algebra. The term log(3x - 1) is equivalent to log 3x/log 1. If we continue to rearrange and find x, the solution would be:

log(3x - 1) = log28
log 3x/log 1 = log 28
log 3x = log 28 * log 1 = 0
3x = 10⁰ = 1
3x = 1
x = 1/3

<em>So, that means 3x - 1 = 3(1/3) - 1 = 0.</em>

A runner traveled 3 mi in the same time that a cyclist traveled 5 mi. The speed of the cyclist was 2 mph greater than that of th
Contact [7]

Answer:

5 mph.

Step-by-step explanation:

Let the runner travel at x miles an hour , then the cyclist travels at 5/ 3 * x

= 5/3 x  miles an hour.

So we have the equation

5/3 x - x = 2    ( since the cyclist was  travelling at 2  mph faster).,

2/3 x = 2

x = 3/2 * 2 = 3 mph.

So the cyclists speed was  3 * 5/3

= 5 mph.

The circle below is centered at the origin and has a radius of 4. What is its
BlackZzzverrR [31]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

The standard form of a circle's equation is

(x-h)^2+(y-k)^2=r^2 where h and k are the circle's center and r is the radius. We are told, and we can see, that the center of the circle is (0, 0) so h = 0 and k = 0. The radius, given as 4, goes into the equation squared, so the equation is

(x-0)^2+(y-0)^2=16 which simplifies down to

x^2+y^2=16, choice C.
