What is the value of x in the equation log5 x = 4 jmap?

1 answer:

5 0

To solve for x we proceed as follows:
from the laws of logarithm, given that:
log_a b=c
then
a^c=b
applying the rationale to our question we shall have:
log_5 x=4
hence
5^4=x
x=625
Answer: x=625

Find the discriminant of the following quadratic equation<br> x^-5x+3=0

nika2105 [10]

The discriminant of the given quadratic equation as in the task content can be evaluated by means of the formula; D = b²-4ac and it's value is; 13.

<h3>What is the discriminant of the quadratic equation as given in the task content?</h3>

According to the task content, it follows that the quadratic equation whose discriminant is to be determined is; x²-5x+3=0.

By comparison with the standard form equation of a quadratic graph which goes thus; ax²+bx +c = 0, in which case, the determinant is given by the expression; b² - 4ac.

We can consequently evaluate the determinant of the quadratic equation in discuss as follows;

Determinant = b² -4ac = (-5)² - (4×1×3) = 25 - 12

Hence, the determinant in this case is; 13.

A. 11x - 9

INCORRECT, this has two terms 11x and 9

B. 20x⁹

CORRECT, this only has one term!

C. 20x⁹ - 7x

INCORRECT, this has two terms 20x⁹ and 7x

D.9/x

INCORRECT, this is not a polynomial

5 Michiko has a metal container in the shape of a cuboid. The container is 2.4 m long, 1.2 m wide and 0.6 m high. Michiko plans

konstantin123 [22]

Answer:

a) Michiko needs to buy 18 tins of paint.

b) cost of paint would be $152.82

Step-by-step explanation:

Surface area of cuboid = 2lw + 2lh + 2hw

Length (l) = 2.4 m

Width (w) = 1.2 m

Height (h) = 0.6 m

SF = 2(2.4 × 1.2) + 2(2.4 × 0.6) + 2(0.6 × 1.2)

= 5.76 + 2.88 + 1.44

= 10.08 meter²

Paint coverage is 4.5 meter² per liter.

Total paint used in one coat =

= 2.24 liters

Paint used in double coats = 2.24 × 2 = 4.48 liters

a) Size of one tin paint = 250 ml

1 liters = 1000 ml

4.48 liters = 4.48 × 1000 = 4480 ml

Number of tins needed by Michiko =

= 17.92 ≈ 18 tins

b) Cost of one tin of metal paint = $8.49

∴ cost of 18 tins of paint = $152.82

a) Michiko needs to buy 18 tins of paint.

b) cost of paint would be $152.82

g If the economy improves, a certain stock stock will have a return of 23.4 percent. If the economy declines, the stock will hav

dusya [7]

Answer:

$E(X) = 23.4* 0.67 -11.9*0.33= 11.759 \%$

Now we can find the second central moment with this formula:

$E(X^2) = \sum_{i=1}^n X^2_i P(X_i)$

And replacing we got:

$E(X^2) = (23.4)^2* 0.67 +(-11.9)^2*0.33= 413.5965$

And the variance is given by:

$Var(X) = E(X^2) - [E(X)]^2$

And replacing we got:

$Var(X) = 413.5965 -(11.759)^2 =275.5105$

And finally the deviation would be:

$Sd(X) = \sqrt{275.5105}= 16.599 \%$

Step-by-step explanation:

We can define the random variable of interest X as the return from a stock and we know the following conditions:

$X_1 = 23.4 , P(X_1) =0.67$ represent the result if the economy improves

$X_2 = -11.9 , P(X_1) =0.33$ represent the result if we have a recession

We want to find the standard deviation for the returns on the stock. We need to begin finding the mean with this formula:

$E(X) = \sum_{i=1}^n X_i P(X_i)$

And replacing the data given we got:

$E(X) = 23.4* 0.67 -11.9*0.33= 11.759 \%$

Now we can find the second central moment with this formula:

$E(X^2) = \sum_{i=1}^n X^2_i P(X_i)$

And replacing we got:

$E(X^2) = (23.4)^2* 0.67 +(-11.9)^2*0.33= 413.5965$

And the variance is given by:

$Var(X) = E(X^2) - [E(X)]^2$

And replacing we got:

$Var(X) = 413.5965 -(11.759)^2 =275.5105$

And finally the deviation would be:

$Sd(X) = \sqrt{275.5105}= 16.599 \%$
