Let's set these equations up first before anything.
4/5 mi and 1/20 mi per hour.
Multiply 4/5 by a number that will get your denominator (5) to 20.
5 x 4 is 20, so multiply 4/5 by 4.
16/20 miles, or, 16 hours, since 1/20 mi is made per hour.
Your answer is 16 hours.
Hope this helps :)

Use the equation and type the ordered-pairs. y = log 3 x {(1/3, a0), (1, a1), (3, a2), (9, a3), (27, a4), (81, a5)

vagabundo [1.1K]

Answer:

Considering the given equation $y = log_{3}x\\$

And the ordered pairs in the format $(x, y)$

I don't know if it is log of base 3 or 10, but I will assume it is 3.

For $(\frac{1}{3}, a_{0} )$

$x=\frac{1}{3}$

$y=a_{0}$

$y = log_{3}x\\y = log_{3}(\frac{1}{3} )\\y=-\log _3\left(3\right)\\y=-1$

So the ordered pair will be $(\frac{1}{3}, -1 )$

For $(1, a_{1} )$

$x=1$

$y=a_{1}$

$y = log_{3}x\\y = log_{3}1\\y = log_{3}(1)\\Note: \log _a(1)=0\\y = 0$

So the ordered pair will be $(1, 0 )$

For $(3, a_{2} )$

$x=3$

$y=a_{2}$

$y = log_{3}x\\y = log_{3}3\\y = 1$

So the ordered pair will be $(3, 1 )$

For $(9, a_{3} )$

$x=9$

$y=a_{3}$

$y = log_{3}x\\y = log_{3}9\\y=2\log _3\left(3\right)\\y=2$

So the ordered pair will be $(9, 2 )$

For $(27, a_{4} )$

$x=27$

$y=a_{4}$

$y = log_{3}x\\y = log_{3}27\\y=3\log _3\left(3\right)\\y=3$

So the ordered pair will be $(27, 3 )$

For $(81, a_{5} )$

$x=81$

$y=a_{5}$

$y = log_{3}x\\y = log_{3}81\\y=4\log _3\left(3\right)\\y=4$

So the ordered pair will be $(81, 4 )$

A survey team is trying to estimate the height of a mountain above a level plain. From one point on the plain, they observe that

Alex73 [517]

Answer: 3528.25

Step-by-step explanation:Make a sideview sketch

you should have 2 triangles, one right-angled containing the height and a scalene triangle with angles 24° , 153° (the supplement of 27°) and 3°

the side opposite the 3° angle is 1000

by let the side opposite the 24° be x, (also the hypotenuse of the right-angled triangle)

x/sin24 = 1000/sin3

x = 1000sin24/sin3

let the height of the mountain be h

sin 27 = h/x

h = x sin27 = (1000sin24/sin3)(sin27)

= 3528.25

adam bought a box of fruit that weighed 6 1/4 pounds. if he bought a second box that weighed 8 1/8 pounds , what is the combined

Serhud [2]

Answer:

14 3/8 pounds

Step-by-step explanation:

6 pounds plus 8 pounds= 14 pounds. 1/4 + 1/8= 3/8. 1/4 can be turned into 2/8, and 2/8 plus 1/8 equals 3/8. Hope this helps :)
