Answer:

x=-1

Step-by-step explanation:

-2(x+4)+8=2

1) Use the Distributive property:

-2x-8+8=2

2) Combine alike terms:

-2x=2

3) Divide both sides by -2:

x=-1

Simplify this: log√24+ log6

Kitty [74]

simplifying $log\sqrt{24}+log6$ we get $log(12\sqrt{6})$

Step-by-step explanation:

We need to simplify: $log\sqrt{24}+log6$

Solving:

Applying the rule:

log a + log b = log(ab)

$log\sqrt{24}+log6\\=log(6\sqrt{24})\\\sqrt{24} = \sqrt{2*2*2*3} =\sqrt{2^2*6} =\sqrt{2^2} \sqrt{6}=2\sqrt{6}\\ Putting\,\,value:\\=log(6*2\sqrt{6})\\=log(12\sqrt{6})$

So, simplifying $log\sqrt{24}+log6$ we get $log(12\sqrt{6})$

Find the reference angle given: t= -5π/3.

Elina [12.6K]

Answer:

The reference angle is $\frac{\pi}{3}$

Step-by-step explanation:

The given angle is $t=-\frac{5\pi}{3}$

The reference angle is the acute angle, that a given angle makes with the x-axis.

First let us make a sketch of the given angle. <em>See diagram in attachment.</em>

Let $\theta$ be the reference angle of $t=-\frac{5\pi}{3}$

Then, from the diagram, we need to subtract $\theta$ from $-\frac{5\pi}{3}$ to get to $-2\pi$ .

We can therefore write the following equation and solve for $\theta$ .

$\Rightarrow -\frac{5\pi}{3}-\theta=-2\pi$

We group like terms to get,

$\Rightarrow -\theta=-2\pi +\frac{5\pi}{3}$

We collect LCM to get,

$\Rightarrow -\theta=\frac{-6\pi+5\pi}{3}$

We simplify to get,

$\Rightarrow -\theta=-\frac{\pi}{3}$

We divide through by $-1$

$\theta=\frac{\pi}{3}$ to get,

The correct answer is D.
