The length of an object is measured as 25.8 centimeters. What is the length in scientific notation?

2 answers:

8 0

Scientific notation says, "leave only one guy to the left of the decimal point", so... 25.8 needs to turn to 2.58 then... multiplied by some power of 10, we just need to move the dot over one spot, so 10 at the 1 power, $\bf 2.58\times 10^1\implies 2.58\times 10$

Answer ---> 2.58*10^1

So, when you write 10^n, you have to move the comma n times.

So you move the comma 1 time from 2.58 (moved the comma 1 time on the left) to the right and get 25.8

Log(x-2)+log2=2logy<br>log(x-3y+3)=0

In-s [12.5K]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

$\left\{\begin{array}{ccc}\log(x-2)+\log2=2\log y&(1)\\\log(x-3y+3)=0&(2)\end{array}\right$

$===========================\\\text{DOMAIN:}\\\\x-2>0\to x>2\\y>0\\x-3y+3>0\to x-3y>-3\\=====================\\\\\text{We know:}\ \log_ab=c\iff a^c=b,\\\\\text{therefore}\ \log_ab=0\iff a^0=b\to b=1\\\\\text{From this we have}\\\\\log(x-3y+3)=0\iff x-3y+3=1\qquad\text{add}\ 3y\ \text{to both sides}\\\\x+3=3y+1\qquad\text{subtract 3 from both isdes}\\\\\boxed{x=3y-2}\qquad(*)\\\\\text{Substitute it to (1)}$

$\log(3y-2-2)+\log2=2\log(y)\qquad\text{use}\ \log_ab^n=n\log_ab\\\\\log(3y-4)+\log2=\log(y^2)\qquad\text{subtract}\ \log(y^2)\ \text{from both sides}\\\\\log(3y-4)+\log2-\log(y^2)=0\\\\\text{Use}\ \log_ab+\log_ac=\log_a(bc)\ \text{and}\ \log_ab-\log_ac=\log_a\dfrac{b}{c}\\\\\log\dfrac{(3y-4)(2)}{y^2}=0\qquad\text{use}\ \log_ab=0\Rightarrow b=1\\\\\dfrac{(3y-4)(2)}{y^2}=1\iff y^2=(3y-4)(2)\\\\\text{Use the distributive property}\ a(b+c)=ab+ac$

$y^2=(3y)(2)+(-4)(2)\\\\y^2=6y-8\qquad\text{subtract}\ 6y\ \text{from both sides}\\\\y^2-6y=-8\qquad\text{add 8 to both sides}\\\\y^2-6y+8=0\\\\y^2-2y-4y+8=0\\\\y(y-2)-4(y-2)=0\\\\(y-2)(y-4)=0\iff y-2=0\ \vee\ y-4=0\\\\\boxed{y=2\ \vee\ y=4}\in D$

$\text{Put the values of}\ y\ \text{to }\ (*):\\\\\text{for}\ y=2:\\\\x=3(2)-2\\\\x=6-2\\\\\boxed{x=4}\in D\\\\\text{for}\ y=4:\\\\x=3(4)-2\\\\x=12-2\\\\\boxed{x=10}\in D$

How do you solve this

PilotLPTM [1.2K]

Since 3=30/10, (30+1)/10=31/10. 31s/10=(30+1)/5 ( we get 30 because 5*6=30) = 31/5. Multiplying both sides by 10, we get 31s=62 (since 5 is a factor of 10, we can do 10/5 =2 and multiply 2 by 31). Dividing both sides by 31, we get s =2
