Answer:

20 + 10 = 30

Step-by-step explanation:

The sum of x and y is 30. In other words, x plus y equals 30 and can be written as equation A:

x + y = 30

The difference between x and y is 10. In other words, x minus y equals 10 and can be written as equation B:

x - y = 10

Now solve equation B for x to get the revised equation B:

x - y = 10

x = 10 + y

Then substitute x in equation A from the revised equation B and then solve for y:

x + y = 30

10 + y + y = 30

10 + 2y = 30

2y = 20

y = 10

Now we know y is 10. Which means that we can substitute y for 10 in equation A and solve for x:

x + y = 30

x + 10 = 30

X = 20

Summary: The sum of two numbers is 30 and their difference is 10. What are the two numbers? Answer: 20 and 10 as proven here:

Sum: 20 + 10 = 30

Difference: 20 - 10 = 10

Which equation is equivalent to log Subscript 3 Baseline (x + 5) = 2?
adell [148]

Answer:

The correct option is right-bracket squared 3 squared =x+5

Step-by-step explanation:

The equation is \log _{3}(x+5)=2

Option a: \log _{3}(x+5)=3^{2}

This is not possible because using logarithmic rule, if \log _{a} b=c then b=a^{c}

Hence, option a is not equivalent to \log _{3}(x+5)=2

Option b: \log _{3}(x+5)=2^{3}

This is not possible because using logarithmic rule, if \log _{a} b=c then b=a^{c}

Hence, option b is not equivalent to \log _{3}(x+5)=2

Option c: x+5=3^{2}

This is possible because using logarithmic rule, if \log _{a} b=c then b=a^{c}

Hence, option c is equivalent to \log _{3}(x+5)=2

Option b: x+5=2^{3}

This is not possible because using logarithmic rule, if \log _{a} b=c then b=a^{c}

Hence, option b is not equivalent to \log _{3}(x+5)=2

Thus, the correct option is c: x+5=3^{2}

Hence, the equation x+5=3^{2} is equivalent to \log _{3}(x+5)=2
