Answer: x = 8
---------------------------------------------
---------------------------------------------
I'm going to use the notation log(2,x) to indicate "log base 2 of x". The first number is the base while the second is the expression inside the log (aka the argument of the log)
log(2,x) + log(2,(x-6)) = 4
log(2,x*(x-6)) = 4
x*(x-6) = 2^4
x*(x-6) = 16
x^2-6x = 16
x^2-6x-16 = 0
(x-8)(x+2) = 0
x-8 = 0 or x+2 = 0
x = 8 or x = -2
Recall that the domain of log(x) is x > 0. So x = -2 is not allowed. The same applies to log(2,x) as well.
Only x = 8 is a proper solution.
------------------------
You can use the change of base rule to check your work
log base 2 of x = log(2,x) = log(x)/log(2)
log(2,(x-6)) = log(x-6)/log(2)
So,
(log(x)/log(2)) + (log(x-6)/log(2)) = 4
(log(8)/log(2)) + (log(8-6)/log(2)) = 4
(log(8)/log(2)) + (log(2)/log(2)) = 4
(log(2^3)/log(2)) + (log(2)/log(2)) = 4
(3*log(2)/log(2)) + (log(2)/log(2)) = 4
3+1 = 4
4 = 4
The answer is confirmed
Answer: D) Not possible to solve
couse we don't know the meaning of 2x + 4y + 10z
Answer:
About <em>4 hours.</em>
Step-by-step explanation:
To find the answer we will <em>add both percentages</em> of <u><em>Watching TV</em></u> and <u><em>Homework</em></u>. 8% + 13% = <em>21%</em>. Now we will <em>divide 100 by 21</em> and we get<em> 4 hours a day.</em>
Answer:
From the graph attached, we know that
by the corresponding angle theorem, this theorem is about all angles that derive form the intersection of one transversal line with a pair of parallels. Specifically, corresponding angles are those which are placed at the same side of the transversal, one interior to parallels, one exterior to parallels, like
and
.
We also know that, by definition of linear pair postulate,
and
are linear pair. Linear pair postulate is a math concept that defines two angles that are adjacent and for a straight angle, which is equal to 180°.
They are supplementary by the definition of supplementary angles. This definition states that angles which sum 180° are supplementary, and we found that
and
together are 180°, because they are on a straight angle. That is, 
If we substitute
for
, we have
, which means that
and
are also supplementary by definition.
