Answer:

<h2>x = 4 and y = 2 or x = 10 and y = 4</h2>

Step-by-step explanation:

\left\{\begin{array}{ccc}\log(x-2)+\log2=2\log y&(1)\\\log(x-3y+3)=0&(2)\end{array}\right

===========================\\\text{DOMAIN:}\\\\x-2>0\to x>2\\y>0\\x-3y+3>0\to x-3y>-3\\=====================\\\\\text{We know:}\ \log_ab=c\iff a^c=b,\\\\\text{therefore}\ \log_ab=0\iff a^0=b\to b=1\\\\\text{From this we have}\\\\\log(x-3y+3)=0\iff x-3y+3=1\qquad\text{add}\ 3y\ \text{to both sides}\\\\x+3=3y+1\qquad\text{subtract 3 from both isdes}\\\\\boxed{x=3y-2}\qquad(*)\\\\\text{Substitute it to (1)}

\log(3y-2-2)+\log2=2\log(y)\qquad\text{use}\ \log_ab^n=n\log_ab\\\\\log(3y-4)+\log2=\log(y^2)\qquad\text{subtract}\ \log(y^2)\ \text{from both sides}\\\\\log(3y-4)+\log2-\log(y^2)=0\\\\\text{Use}\ \log_ab+\log_ac=\log_a(bc)\ \text{and}\ \log_ab-\log_ac=\log_a\dfrac{b}{c}\\\\\log\dfrac{(3y-4)(2)}{y^2}=0\qquad\text{use}\ \log_ab=0\Rightarrow b=1\\\\\dfrac{(3y-4)(2)}{y^2}=1\iff y^2=(3y-4)(2)\\\\\text{Use the distributive property}\ a(b+c)=ab+ac

y^2=(3y)(2)+(-4)(2)\\\\y^2=6y-8\qquad\text{subtract}\ 6y\ \text{from both sides}\\\\y^2-6y=-8\qquad\text{add 8 to both sides}\\\\y^2-6y+8=0\\\\y^2-2y-4y+8=0\\\\y(y-2)-4(y-2)=0\\\\(y-2)(y-4)=0\iff y-2=0\ \vee\ y-4=0\\\\\boxed{y=2\ \vee\ y=4}\in D

\text{Put the values of}\ y\ \text{to }\ (*):\\\\\text{for}\ y=2:\\\\x=3(2)-2\\\\x=6-2\\\\\boxed{x=4}\in D\\\\\text{for}\ y=4:\\\\x=3(4)-2\\\\x=12-2\\\\\boxed{x=10}\in D

3 years ago a father was 3 times as old as his son, in five years time he will be twice as old as his son, what will be the sum
ivolga24 [154]

Answer: 46 years

Step-by-step explanation:

Let the father's age be x and the son's age be y, then 3 years ago:

Father = x - 3

son     = y - 3

Then , from the first statement :

x - 3 = 3 ( y - 3 )

x - 3 = 3y - 9

x     = 3y - 9 + 3

x     = 3y - 6 .......................................... equation 1

In five years time

father = x + 5

son = y + 5

Then , from the second statement

x + 5 = 2 ( y + 5 )

x + 5 = 2y + 10

x       = 2y + 10 - 5

x       = 2y + 5 ........................ equation 2

Equating equation 1 and 2 , we have

3y -6 = 2y + 5

add 6 to both sides

3y = 2y + 5 + 6

subtract 2y from both sides

3y - 2y = 11

y = 11

substitute y = 11 into equation 1 to find the value of x

x = 3y - 6

x = 3(11) - 6

x = 33 - 6

x = 27

This means that the father is presently 27 years and the son is presently 11 years.

In four years time

father = 27 + 4 = 31

son = 11 + 4      = 15

sum of their ages in four years time will be

31 + 15 = 46 years

Gustavo's bicycle cost $171.18 after a sales tax of 8%. write and solve an equation to find the price of the bike before the sal
Kryger [21]
Let x =  price of the bike before a sales tax.

The price after a sales tax of 8% is
x + 0.08x = 1.08x dollars

Because the price paid was $171.18, therefore
1.08x = 171.18
x = 171.18/1.08 = $158.50

Answer: 158.50
