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:
2nd degree
Step-by-step explanation:
If

is an integer, you can use induction. First show the inequality holds for

. You have

, which is true.
Now assume this holds in general for

, i.e. that

. We want to prove the statement then must hold for

.
Because

, you have

and this must be greater than

for the statement to be true, so we require

for

. Well this is obviously true, because solving the inequality gives

. So you're done.
If you

is any real number, you can use derivatives to show that

increases monotonically and faster than

.
Answer: 72.78% of the drivers are traveling between 70 and 80 miles per hour based on this distribution.
Step-by-step explanation:
Let X be a random variable that represents the speed of the drivers.
Given: population mean : M = 72 miles ,
Standard deviation: s= 3.2 miles
The probability that the drivers are traveling between 70 and 80 miles per hour based on this distribution:
![P(70\leq X\leq 80)=P(\frac{70-72}{3.2}\leq \frac{X-M}{s}\leq\frac{80-72}{3.2})\\\\= P(-0.625\leq Z\leq 2.5)\ \ \ \ \ [Z=\frac{X-M}{s}]\\\\=P(Z\leq2.5)-P(Z\leq -0.625)\\\\\\ =0.9938-0.2660\ \ \ [\text{Using p-value calculator}]\\\\=0.7278](https://tex.z-dn.net/?f=P%2870%5Cleq%20X%5Cleq%2080%29%3DP%28%5Cfrac%7B70-72%7D%7B3.2%7D%5Cleq%20%5Cfrac%7BX-M%7D%7Bs%7D%5Cleq%5Cfrac%7B80-72%7D%7B3.2%7D%29%5C%5C%5C%5C%3D%20P%28-0.625%5Cleq%20Z%5Cleq%202.5%29%5C%20%5C%20%5C%20%5C%20%5C%20%5BZ%3D%5Cfrac%7BX-M%7D%7Bs%7D%5D%5C%5C%5C%5C%3DP%28Z%5Cleq2.5%29-P%28Z%5Cleq%20-0.625%29%5C%5C%5C%5C%5C%5C%20%3D0.9938-0.2660%5C%20%5C%20%5C%20%5B%5Ctext%7BUsing%20p-value%20calculator%7D%5D%5C%5C%5C%5C%3D0.7278)
Hence, 72.78% of the drivers are traveling between 70 and 80 miles per hour based on this distribution.
C is your answer. 5x + 2 = 17
First let’s get them all in terms of x:
Box kites = 3x
Dragon kites = x + 2
Butterfly kites = x
Adding all those up:
x + 3x + x + 2 = 17
Combine like terms:
5x + 2 = 17
