How do you add logs with different bases? e.g. log (base 2) y + log (base 4) y = 6 Thanks in advance!

Mathematics

Gemiola [76]3 years ago

This could be done by shifting bases:

log (base a) b = [log (base 10) b]/[log (base 10) a], *note it could be any other base ( it could be base e)

solving  the given problem: (log y/ log 2) + (log y/log 4) = 6

log y = 1.2041

y = 16

Estimate the height of a tree using the following measurements:height of the rod:180 cm,length of the shadow of the rod is 116 c
andriy [413]

Answer:

1303.45 cm

Step-by-step explanation:

The triangles formed by a rod and its shadow and a tree and its shadow are similar triangles, so the ratios of their heights to the lengths of their shadows are equal.

Let x be the height of the tree. Setting the ratios equal, we get:

180/116 = x/840

Solve for x:

x = 840 * (180/116)

x ≈ 1303.45 cm

What would be the answer to this question?

I would say 46 degrees because 180 - 134 = 46.

4. Two more than a certain number is 15 less<br> than twice the number.
vredina [299]

Answer:

x = 17

Step-by-step explanation:

2+x = 2x-15

subtract x on both sides

2 = x -15

add 15 to both sides

17 = x

------------------

17+2 = 2(17)-15

19 = 34 -15

19 = 19

Amare wants to ride a Ferris wheel that sits four meters above and has a diameter of 50 meters. It takes 6 minutes to do three r
Veseljchak [2.6K]
To answer this question, we begin to transform the speed of revolutions per minute in radians per minute.
 They tell us that the speed of the wheel is 3 turns in 6 minutes.
 So:
 1 revolution = 2π
 (2π / 1 turn) * (3 turns / 6min) = 6π/ 6min = 1π / min.
 The wheel turns π or 180 ° in one minute.
 We already have the angular velocity w.
 We know that the lowest point of the wheel is 4 meters above the ground and that it returns to the same point every 2π
 Therefore, the function sought is periodic and must be equal to 4 for allvalues ​​of time k, where k is an even number 2, 4, 6, 8, .., k

 Then the function must have the form rsin(wt) where "t" is the elapsed time, "w" is the previously calculated angular velocity, and "r" is the radius of the wheel.
 The minimum value of the function must be 4 and the maximum value 54.
 Therefore, the function is:

  h (t) = 4 + 25 + 25sin (π×t + 3π / 2)
 Where 3π/ 2 is the phase angle, which indicates that the movement starts at the instant t = 0 at the lowest point of the wheel that equals 3π / 2.
 You can verify the answer in the following way:

 After 1 minute, the wheel should have rotated 180 ° or π. Therefore, the person must be at the highest point of the wheel and his height must be 54 m.
 When you replace t = 1 in the formula, you get h = 54m
 After 2 minutes, the wheel should have rotated 360 ° or 2π. Therefore, the person must be at the starting point and their height must be 4 m.
 By replacing t = 2 in the formula you will get h = 4m
 After 0.5 minutes, the wheel should have rotated 90 ° or π / 2. Therefore, the person must be in the right half of the wheel and his height must be 29 m.
 When replacing t = 0.5 in the formula you will get h = 29m
