<em><u>Question:</u></em>

Crispy clover, a popular vegetarian restaurant, introduced a new menu that had 20% more dishes than the previous menu. The previous menu had D dishes. Which of the following expressions could represent how many dishes crispy clovers new menu has?

<em><u>Answer:</u></em>

<em><u>The expression could represent how many dishes crispy clovers new menu has is:</u></em>

$D + \frac{1}{5}D \text{ or } 1.2D$

<em><u>Solution:</u></em>

Given that,

The new menu had 20% more dishes than the previous menu

The previous menu had D dishes

Therefore,

Previous menu = D dishes

New menu = 20 % more dishes than previous menu

Which means,

New menu = 20 % of previous menu + previous menu

Therefore,

New menu = 20 % of D + D

Solve the above equation

$New\ menu = 20 \% \times D + D\\\\New\ menu = \frac{20}{100} \times D + D\\\\New\ menu = 0.2 \times D + D\\\\New\ menu = 0.2D + D = \frac{D}{5} + D = 1.2D$

Therefore, new menu has 1.2D dishes

Solve the following equations.<br> log2(x^2 − 16) − log^2(x − 4) = 1

Alenkasestr [34]

Answer:

$x=\frac{4*(2+e)}{e-2}$

Step-by-step explanation:

Let's rewrite the left side keeping in mind the next propierties:

$log(\frac{1}{x} )=-log(x)$

$log(x*y)=log(x)+log(y)$

Therefore:

$log(2*(x^{2} -16))+log(\frac{1}{(x-4)^{2} })=1\\ log(\frac{2*(x^{2} -16)}{(x-4)^{2}})=1$

Now, cancel logarithms by taking exp of both sides:

$e^{log(\frac{2*(x^{2} -16)}{(x-4)^{2}})} =e^{1} \\\frac{2*(x^{2} -16)}{(x-4)^{2}}=e$

Multiply both sides by $(x-4)^{2}$ and using distributive propierty:

$2x^{2} -32=16e-8ex+ex^{2}$

Substract $16e-8ex+ex^{2}$ from both sides and factoring:

$-(x-4)*(-8-4e-2x+ex)=0$

Multiply both sides by -1:

$(x-4)*(-8-4e-2x+ex)=0$

Split into two equations:

$x-4=0\hspace{3}or\hspace{3}-8-4e-2x+ex=0$

Solving for $x-4=0$

Add 4 to both sides:

$x=4$

Solving for $-8-4e-2x+ex=0$

Collect in terms of x and add $4e+8$ to both sides:

$x(e-2)=4e+8$

Divide both sides by e-2:

$x=\frac{4*(2+e)}{e-2}$

The solutions are:

$x=4\hspace{3}or\hspace{3}x=\frac{4*(2+e)}{e-2}$

If we evaluate x=4 in the original equation:

$log(0)-log(0)=1$

This is an absurd because log (x) is undefined for $x\leq 0$

If we evaluate $x=\frac{4*(2+e)}{e-2}$ in the original equation:

$log(2*((\frac{4e+8}{e-2})^2-16))-log((\frac{4e+8}{e-2}-4)^2)=1$

Which is correct, therefore the solution is:

$x=\frac{4*(2+e)}{e-2}$

Line perpendicular to the line that goes through (0,0) and (3,2)

KonstantinChe [14]

Since the first line passes thru the origin, you can read off its slope from the coordinates of the other point (3,2): the slope is m = 2/3.

A line perpendicular to the first has slope -3/2, the negative reciprocal of 2/3.

Thus, the perpendicular line is y = (-3/2)x + b. Subbing 0 for y and 0 for x, we get b = 0. Therefore, the equation of this new line is y = (-3/2)x.
