Answer:

x = log 10/log 3

Step-by-step explanation:

3^x - 4 = 6

3^x = 10

We take log base 3 of both sides since log_3 3^x is simply x.

log_3 3^x = log_3 10

x = log_3 10

We have an answer for x, but it is a log base 3. We want log base 10.

Now we use the change of base formula.

log_b y = log y/log b

x = log 10/log 3

Carlos cut StartFraction 5 Over 12 EndFraction of a yard of cloth into 5 pieces of equal length. What was the length of each pie
erastovalidia [21]

Answer:

Each piece of cloth is (1/12) of a yard long.

Step-by-step explanation:

Carlus cut 5/12 of a yard of cloth into 5 pieces of equal length.

To find the length of each piece of cloth, we need to find the quotient between the length of the piece of cloth, and the number of pieces in which we divide it.

This is:

length = \frac{(5/12)yd}{5} = \frac{5yd}{12*5} = \frac{1yd}{12} \frac{5}{5}  = \frac{1 }{12} yd

This means that the length of each piece of cloth is (1/12) of a yard long.

Limit of x^2-81/x+9<br> As x goes toward -9
Semmy [17]
Hello,

Use the factoration

a^2 - b^2 = (a - b)(a + b)

Then,

x^2 - 81 = x^2 - 9^2

x^2 - 9^2 = ( x - 9).(x + 9)

Then,

Lim (x^2- 81) /(x+9)

= Lim (x -9)(x+9)/(x+9)

Simplity x + 9

Lim (x -9)

Now replace x = -9

Lim ( -9 -9)

Lim -18 = -18
_______________

The second method without using factorization would be to calculate the limit by the hospital rule.

Lim f(x)/g(x) = lim f(x)'/g(x)'

Where,

f(x)' and g(x)' are the derivates.

Let f(x) = x^2 -81

f(x)' = 2x + 0
f(x)' = 2x

Let g(x) = x +9

g(x)' = 1 + 0
g(x)' = 1

Then the Lim stay:

Lim (x^2 -81)/(x+9) = Lim 2x /1

Now replace x = -9

Lim 2×-9 = Lim -18

= -18

Did I do this right? If not please explain!
andrew11 [14]
Yep! Good job, you did it correctly.
Your y-intercept is equal to the constant of the equation (y-int = -2). Your movement/direction (or rise over run) is equal to the variable. Since your variable is x (which can also be written as 1x) means you move up one and over one (rise over run). This is because 1/1 is equal to 1.
