Her swimming rate can either be written as 1.6 laps per (one) minute or as 0.625 minutes per lap = 37.5 seconds per (one) lap.
In terms of number of laps per minute, the answer is
20
laps
12.5
minutes
=
1.6
laps per minute.

In terms of the number of minutes per lap, the answer is
12.5
minutes
20
laps
=
5
8
=
0.625
minutes per lap. This is the same as
0.625
min
lap
⋅
60
sec
min
=
37.5
sec
lap

The faster she goes, the more laps she can do in a minute and the fewer minutes (or seconds) it takes her to do one lap.

Use the following steps to prove that log b(xy)- log bx+ log by.

borishaifa [10]

Answer with Step-by-step explanation:

a. $x=b^p$

$y=b^q$

Taking both sides log

$log x=plog b$

Using identity: $logx^y=ylogx$

$p=\frac{logx}{log b}=log_b x$

Using identity: $log_x y=\frac{log y}{log x}$

$log y=qlog b$

$q=\frac{log y}{log b}=log_b y$

b. $xy=b^pb^q$

We know that

$x^a\cdot x^b=x^{a+b}$

Using identity

$xy=b^{p+q}$

c. $log_b(xy)=log_b(b^{p+q})$

$log_b(xy)=(p+q)log_b b$

Substitute the values then we get

$log_b(xy)=(log_b x+log_b y)$

By using $log_b b=1$

Hence, $log_b(xy)=log_b x+log_b y$

Kevin says that “a line segment is the part of a line containing two endpoints.” What additional information is needed to make t

kakasveta [241]

The statement "That does not extend in both directions." will make the definition, precise.

Kevin's line segment definition is correct.

However, the end points in a line segment implies that the line segment does not extend past its two end points.

So, to make it precise;

Kevin needs to include that the line segment does not extend in both directions, in the definition.

Hence, option (c) is correct.
