Answer:
x = 4
Step-by-step explanation:
Using the rule of logarithms
x = n , then x = 
Given
(5 + 11x) = 2 , then
5 + 11x = 7² = 49 ( subtract 5 from both sides )
11x = 44 ( divide both sides by 11 )
x = 4
Answer:
The least number of stamps required is 
Step-by-step explanation:
Let the number of
cent stamps be
and
cent stamps be 
We have

The minimum number is obtained when more
cent stamps are used
Here
cannot be greater than
since 
Substitute 

Not possible since
is not a fraction
Substitute 

Not possible since
is not a fraction
Substitute 

Possible
Hence minimum number of stamps is

Let h = height of triangle
h^2 + 12^2 = 15^2
h^2 + 144 = 225
h^2 = 225 - 144
h^2 = 81
sqrt{h^2} = sqrt{81}
h = 9 cm
For part B, we need to find surface area because it represents the perimeter of this 3-D figure. The formula needed is SA = B + LA.
1. First find the lateral area.
LA = perimeter of triangle • height
LA = ph
p = 15 + 15 + 24
p = 30 + 24
p = 54 cm
LA = (54)(9)
LA = 486 cm^2
2. We now find the base of each triangle. This is found by finding the area of each triangle and multiplying by 2.
A = (1/2)bh
A = (1/2)(24)(9)
A = 108 cm^2
A = 2•108 cm^2
A = 216 cm^2 = our B in the surface area formula.
SA = B + LA
SA = 216 cm^2 + 486 cm^2
SA = 702 cm^2
The amount of cardboard needed is 702 cm^2.
Answer:
a) 20 units
b) 2 √10 units
c) 2 √17 units
Step-by-step explanation:
The distance formula is;
D = √(y2-y1)^2 + (x2-x1)^2
a) D = √(-7-9)^2 + (-7-5)^2
D = √256 + 144
D = √400
D = 20
b) D = √(10-8)^2 + (9-2)^2
D = √(2)^2 + 6^2
D = √4 + 36)
D = √40
D = 2 √10 units
c) D = √(1 + 7)^2 + (-8+10)^2
D = √(64 + 4)
D = √68
D = 2 √17 units
A) i think is the correct answer
