Step-by-step explanation:

Here we make use of the laws of logarithms:

log_a(PQ) = log_a(P)+log_a(Q)

which implies the following corollary

log_a(P^2) = log_a(P)+log_a(P) = 2log_a(P)

Notice how the log of a product is reduced to the sum of the log of the factors. (Advantage is taken of this fact in the use of logarithm tables before the wide-spread use of electronic calculators (pre-70's) )

So substituting

x=log_a(3)

y=log_a(5)

we have

log_a(45) = log_a(3^2 * 5) = log_a(3^2) + log_a(5)=2log_a(3)+log_a(5)

=2x+y

Answer: 2x + y

Step-by-step explanation:

logₐ(3) = x

logₐ(5) = y

logₐ(45) = logₐ(3²· 5)

= logₐ(3)² + logₐ(5)

= 2 logₐ(3) + logₐ(5)

= 2 x + y substituted given values (stated above)

A line segment has (x1, y1) as one endpoint and (xm, ym) as its midpoint. Find the other endpoint (x2, y2) of the line segment i

Tasya [4]

Answer:

(3,7) for the first line, and (12,0) for the second one.

Step-by-step explanation:

Hi Isabella,

1) The Midpoint of a line, when it comes to Analytical Geometry, is calculated as Mean of two points it follows:

$x_{m}=\frac{x_{1} +x_{2} } {2}, y_{m} =\frac{y_{1}+ y_{2} }{2}$

2) Each segment has two endpoints, and their midpoints, namely:

a) (1,-9) and its midpoint (2,-1)

b) (-2,18) and its midpoint (5,9)

3) Calculating. You need to be careful to not sum the wrong coordinates.

So be attentive!

The first line a

$2=\frac{1+x_{2} }{2}\\ 4=1+x_{2}\\ 4-1=-1+1+x_{2} \\ x_{2}=3\\-1=\frac{y_{2}-9}{2}\\-2=y_{2}-9\\+2-2=y_{2}-9+2\\ y_{2}=-7$

So (3,7) is the other endpoint whose segment starts at (1,-9)

The second line b endpoint at (-2,18) and its midpoint (5,9)

$5=\frac{-2+x_{2} }{2} \\ 10=-2+x_{2} \\ +2+10=+2-2+x_{2}\\ x_{2}=12 \\ \\ 9=\frac{18+y_{2} }{2} \\ 18=18+y_{2} \\ -18+18=-18+18+y_{2}\\ y_{2} =0$

So (12,0) it is the other endpoint.
