Answer:

Logarithms are used to model all sorts of things, especially growth and decay!

Step-by-step explanation:

One super-relevant example of how logs are used is in tracking the progress of the coronavirus. There are graphs up on worldometer that show both the linear number of cases and deaths and the log numbers - why? Because this gives us a better idea of when the curve will really flatten, or when it will reach its carrying capacity.

It's also used in things like radioactive decay, or where the growth rate is not constant.

Verify that your point from Question 2 is a solution to 2x-y=-12x−y=−1 AND is also a solution to y=5x-5y=5x−5. What does it mean

Vera_Pavlovna [14]

Answer:

(a) Verified

(b) They are simultaneous equations

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

$2x - y = -1$

$y =5x - 5$

Required

Verify that: $(x,y) = (2,5)$ is a solution

We have:

$2x - y = -1$

Substitute: $(x,y) = (2,5)$

$2 * 2 - 5 = -1$

Evaluate all products

$4 - 5 = -1$

Subtract:

$-1 = -1$

Because both sides of the equation are equal, then the point is a solution

Also: $y =5x - 5$

Substitute: $(x,y) = (2,5)$

$5 = 5 * 2 - 5$

Evaluate all products

$5 = 10 - 5$

Subtract:

$5 = 5$

Because both sides of the equation are equal, then the point is a solution

Because the given point is a solution to both equations, then they are simultaneous equation

Consider the line =+3x6y−8 . what is the slope of a line parallel to this line? what is the slope of a line perpendicular to thi

Reil [10]

Two lines are parallel if their slope is the same.
You want to write 8x + 4y = 5 in the form y = mx + b, where m represents the slope and b is the y-intercept.
We need to isolate y in the given equation. The number next to x is the slope.
8x + 4y = 5
4y = -8x + 5

y = (-8x +5)/4
y = -2x + 5/4
The slope of the line we want is -2.
Two lines are perpendicular if the slope of the first line times the slope of the second line produces a product of negative one.
Since our slope is -2, we know that -2 times 1/2 yields -1.
The slope of the line perpendicular is 1/2.
