21 picks
altogether (2x+5x)=21
7x=21
x=3
2*3=6 orange picks

or
x=orange, y = greens
x+y=21
x/y=2/5,---->   y=5x/2
x+5x/2=21
2x/2+5x/2=21
7x/2=21
7x=42,
x=6  orange picks

What is the true solution In 20+In 5=2 In x?
S_A_V [24]

Answer:

x = 10

Step-by-step explanation:

Using the rules of logarithms

• log x + log y ⇔ log(xy)

• logx^{n} ⇔ n log x

• log x = log y ⇒ x = y

Given

ln20 + ln5 = 2 lnx , then

ln(20 × 5) = lnx^{2}

ln 100 = lnx^{2}, hence

x² = 100 ( take the square root of both sides )

x = 10

Given the following functions f(x) and g(x), solve (f/g)(-4) and select the correct answer below. F(x)=4x-4 G(x)=x-1
yan [13]
To start set up a fraction with the f(x) on top and g(x) on bottom
(f/g)(x) = (4x - 4)/(x - 1)  - This is the function that we are going to use

Plug in -4 for x
(f/g)(-4) = (4(-4) - 4)/(-4 - 1) = (-16 - 4)/(-5) = (-20)/(-5) = 4

So...
(f/g)(-4) = 4

The dog’s leash is 60 inches long. If the dog walks back and forth with its leash pulled tight while the leash is tied to the li
labwork [276]

Answer:

150.08 inches

Step-by-step explanation:

The question simply requires that we find the length of the arc that the dog walks.

Its leash rotates through 150° and the length of the leash (radius) is 60 inches.

The length of an arc is given as:

L = α/360 * 2πR

where α = angle of arc

R =radius

Therefore:

L = 150/360 * 2 * π * 60

L = 150.08 inches

The dog walks 150.08 inches
