Answer:
x = - 5, x = 2
Step-by-step explanation:
Using the rules of logarithms
log x - log y = log (
)
x = n ⇔ x = 
note that log x =
x
Given
log (x² + 3x) - log10 = 0, then
log(
) = 0, thus
=
= 1 ( multiply both sides by 10 )
x² + 3x = 10 ( subtract 10 from both sides )
x² + 3x - 10 = 0 ← in standard form
(x + 5)(x - 2) = 0 ← in factored form
Equate each factor to zero and solve for x
x + 5 = 0 ⇒ x = - 5
x - 2 = 0 ⇒ x = 2
Solution is x = - 5, x = 2
If each player will receive 7/8 of a cup, and there are a total of 20 cups of lemonade, then the number of servings that can be made is equal to:
20 cups divided by (7/8 cup per player)
20 / (7/8) = 20 * (8/7) = 160/7 = 22 and 6/7 (round down since we're looking for complete servings)
This means that 22 complete servings can be made.
Answer:
Maureen ignored the negative(minus) sign in 1.7 thereby turning it into positive 1.7
Step-by-step explanation:
-1.7 + (-6.3)
Correct simplification
-1.7 + (-6.3)
Open parenthesis
= - 1.7 - 6.3
= -8
NOTE:
- * + = -
- * - = +
+ * - = -
+ * + = +
Maureen's simplification
-1.7 + (-6.3)
= 1.7 - 6.3
= -4.6
Maureen ignored the negative(minus) sign in 1.7 thereby turning it into positive 1.7
Answer:
12 units²
Step-by-step explanation:
The area (A) of a trapezoid is calculated as
A =
h (b₁ + b₂ )
where h is the perpendicular height and b₁, b₂ the parallel bases
Here h = 4 ( perpendicular distance between the bases ) and
b₁ = SR = 2, b₂ = TA = 4 , then
A =
× 4 × (2 + 4) = 2 × 6 = 12 units²
Answer:
49.4 degrees
Step-by-step explanation:
In Triangle AXY,

We want to determine the angle of elevation from the point Vera is standing to the top of the flagpole, which is the angle at V in the diagram.
In Triangle XVY
|VY|=36 feet

Therefore, the angle of elevation from the point Vera is standing to the top of the flagpole is 49.4 degree to the nearest tenth of a degree.
