Answer:

32/20

Step-by-step explanation:

32 and 20 are both divisible by 4. 4*8=32 and 4*5=20. So this one works. Another way to think about it is if you put them as fractions and reduced them down to their simplest form, they would form the fraction 8/5.Oct 17, 2019

Answer: $x=\frac{12}{7}$

Step-by-step explanation:

Remember the logarithms properties:

$log(m)-log(n)=log(\frac{m}{n})\\\\b^{log_b(a)}=a$

Then,simplifying:

$log_{8}(\frac{x}{-2x+4}) = log_{8}(3)$

Apply base 8 to boths sides and then solve for "x":

$8^{log_{8}(\frac{x}{-2x+4})}=8^{log_{8}(3)}\\\\\frac{x}{-2x+4}=3\\\\x=3(-2x+4)\\\\x=-6x+12\\x+6x=12\\7x=12\\\\x=\frac{12}{7}$
