Let's represent the smaller number by x and the larger number x+23
x+x+23=65                                      x+23=21+23=44                                                                                                        So the two numbers are 21 and 44
2x+23=65
2x+23-23=65-23
2x=42
2x/2=42/2
x=21

Log(x)²=(logx)², find the value of x​
Gnesinka [82]

Answer:

x = 7.39

Step-by-step explanation:

log(x)²=(logx)², find the value of x​

log x² = log x * log x

2log x = log x * log x

2 = log x

Take the exponent pf both sides

e² = e^logx

e²  = x

x  = e²

x = 7.39

Carlos finds the absolute value of -5.3, and then finds the opposite of his answer. Jason finds the opposite of -5.3 and then fi
polet [3.4K]
The absolute value is how far away a number is from the number line, so it is always positive. If Carlos finds the opposite of the absolute value, that means he found the negative version. So Jason's final value will be greater.
