Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

The answer is Since 0 in ln(3x) - 0 is not a logarithm, the property of logarithms cannot be used here.

The difference shown cannot be written as a quotient of logarithms.

The step ln(x2) = ln(3x) - (0) reduces to

ln(x2) = ln(3x).

The possible solutions are 0 and 3, with 0 being extraneous.

A 120-inch strip of metal 12 inches wide is to be made into a small open trough by bending up two sides on the long side, at rig

mezya [45]

Answer:

x= 3 inch should be turned up on each side

Step-by-step explanation:

Let the height of trough be x.

Width of trough be 12 - 2x.

and length of trough = 120 inch

Volume of trough, V = L×W×H = 120 × (12-2x) × x = 120x(12 - 2x)

For maximum volume, we find V' = 0

i.e 1440 -480x = 0

or x = $\frac{1440}{480}$

or x= 3

Hence x= 3 inch should be turned up on each side

In 2013, the population of China was estimated to be 1,360,760,100. Round off the number of people

Aleksandr [31]

Answer:

a) 1,360,760,000

b) 1,361,000,000

c) 1,400,000,000

d) 1,360,800,000

Step-by-step explanation:

We have to round off the given population number to certain digits.

The following are the rules to round of a number:

First identify the digit to be rounded.
If this digit is followed by 5,6,7,8,9 then we round up the number that is increase the digit by 1 and all the numbers to right becomes zero.
If this digit is followed by 0,1,2,3,4 then we round down the number that is decrease the digit by 1 and all the numbers to right becomes zero.

a) to the nearest thousand.

Thousands place: 0

Right Digit: 1

We round down the number

Rounded to the nearest 1,000 or t he thousands Place = 1,360,760,000

b) to the nearest million

Millions place: 0

Right Digit: 7

We round up the number

Rounded to the nearest million places = 1,361,000,000

c) to nearest hundred million

Hundred million place: 3

Right Digit: 6

We round up the number

Rounded to the nearest million places = 1,400,000,000

d) to the nearest hundred thousand.

hundred thousand place: 7

Right Digit: 6

We round up the number

Rounded to the nearest million places = 1,360,800,000

Use the Pythagorean theorem to find the height.

Height = sqrt(26^2-10^2)

Height = 24 cm

Volume = 20^2 x 24/3

Volume = 7,200 cm^3

The graph below have the same shape f(x)=x^2 what is the equation of the graph of g(x)

Artist 52 [7]

Answer: OPTION B

Step-by-step explanation:

By definition, the parent function is the simplest form of a function. In this case, you have the quadratic parent function $f(x)=x^{2}$

As you can see in the graph, the function g(x) is the obtained by shifting the parent function f(x) two units to the right, which is represented with:

$f(x-2)=(x-2)^2$

Therefore, the equation of the function g(x) is:

$g(x)=(x-2)^2$
