Answer:
it is slightly less than 12
Step-by-step explanation:
Only a function that actually shows the word "ln" or "log" or "log to the base b" is a log function.
Taking a closer look at #3: y = log 0.25^x, we see that this can be simplified by writing the base (10) as follows: 10 10
and then using y as the exponent of the first 10 and log 0.25^x as the exponent of the second 10:
10^y = 10^(log 0.25^x)
You were not asked to do this, but this discussion may be of interest and help to you down the line.
10^y = 0.25^x
Answer:
the quotient x minus 0.3 is equal to 1.7
Step-by-step explanation:
First plug in the numbers for x and y
-2.31-(-5.9)
When a negative is being subtracted you replace it with an addition symbol. So, now the equation is -2.31+5.9
Answer: 3.59
Short Answer B
Argument
A
A will give you x = +/- 5i
x^2 + 25 = 0
x^2 = - 25 Take the square root.
sqrt(x^2) = +/- sqrt(-25)
x = +/- (5)i which is a complex number.
B
Is the answer
x^2 = 25
sqrt(x)^2 = sqrt(25)
x = +/- 5
C
Can't be factored just by looking at it. You can show that C is not true just by putting 5 into the equation
f(x) = x^2 + 10x - 25
f(5) = 25 + 10*5 - 25
f(5) = 50
C is not true.
D
D can be eliminated as C was
f(x) = x^2 - 5x - 25
f(5) = -25 ( l'll let you show this is not true). 5 is not a solution because it does not make f(x) = 0
