Answer:

83.56/p

Step-by-step explanation:

Let the weight of the players = p

Let the weight of the reserve players = r

Since there 9 players, there weight = 9p

And since there 3 reserve players, there weight = 3r

(9p + 3r) / 12 = 188

9p + 3r = 12 * 188

9p + 3r = 2256

Solve for r

r = 2256 / 27p

r = 83.56/p

Condense the following logs into a single log:

mamaluj [8]

QUESTION 1

The given logarithm is

$8\log_g(x)+5\log_g(y)$

We apply the power rule of logarithms; $n\log_a(m)=\log_(m^n)$

$=\log_g(x^8)+\log_g(y^5)$

We now apply the product rule of logarithm;

$\log_a(m)+\log_a(n)=\log_a(mn)$

$=\log_g(x^8y^5)$

QUESTION 2

The given logarithm is

$8\log_5(x)+\frac{3}{4}\log_5(y)-5\log_5(z)$

We apply the power rule of logarithm to get;

$=\log_5(x^8)+\log_5(y^{\frac{3}{4}})-\log_5(z^5)$

We apply the product to obtain;

$=\log_5(x^8\times y^{\frac{3}{4}})-\log_5(z^5)$

We apply the quotient rule; $\log_a(m)-\log_a(n)=\log_a(\frac{m}{n} )$

$=\log_5(\frac{x^8\times y^{\frac{3}{4}}}{z^5})$

$=\log_5(\frac{x^8 \sqrt[4]{y^3} }{z^5})$

Patricia and Joe Payne are divorced. The divorce settlement stipulated that Joe pay $485 a month for their daughter Suzanne unti

$

$\bf A=5280\left[ \cfrac{\left( 1+\frac{0.06}{1} \right)^{1\cdot 4}-1}{\frac{0.06}{1}} \right]$

Joe is making $485 payments monthly, but the amount gets interest on a yearly basis, not monthly, so the amount that yields interest is 485*12

also, keep in mind, we're assuming is compound interest, as opposed to simple interest
