How do you solve these problems?

Rzqust [24]

A)

$\bf log_4(x)=3\\\\
-----------------------------\\\\
log_{{ a}}{{ a}}^x\implies x\qquad \qquad 
\boxed{{{ a}}^{log_{{ a}}x}=x}\impliedby 
\begin{array}{llll}
\textit{we'll use this}\\
\textit{cancellation rule}
\end{array}\\\\
-----------------------------\\\\
4^{\cfrac{}{}log_4(x)}=4^3\implies x=4^3$

b)

$\bf 3^{2y}=81\qquad 
\begin{cases}
81=3\cdot 3\cdot 3\cdot 3\\
\qquad 3^4
\end{cases}\implies 3^{2y}=3^4\impliedby 
\begin{array}{llll}
\textit{same base}\\
exponents\\
must\ be\\
the\ same
\end{array}
\\\\\\
2y=4\implies y=\cfrac{4}{2}\implies y=2$

The following are the ages (years) of 5 people in a room:

slava [35]

Answer:

The age of the person who entered the room is 15

Step-by-step explanation:

We are given:

Ages of 5 people in a room are:

17, 16, 15, 17, 22

A person enters room, and then the mean age of 6 people is 17.

We need to find the age of person who entered the room.

The formula to calculate mean is: $Mean=\frac{Sum\:of\:all\:data\:values}{Number\:of\:data\:Values}$

Now, in question we are given mean of 6 people that is 17

The age of 5 people are given while age of one person who enters the room is unknown.

Let age of person whose age is unknown= x

Now finding x using mean formula

$Mean=\frac{Sum\:of\:all\:data\:values}{Number\:of\:data\:Values}\\17=\frac{17+16+ 15+ 17+ 22+x}{6}\\17=\frac{87+x}{6}\\17*6=87+x\\102=87+x\\x=102-87\\x=15$

So, The value of x: x=15

Hence, the age of the person who entered the room is 15
