<span>Benford’s law states that the probability that a number in a set has a given leading digit, d, is
P(d) = log(d + 1) - log(d)</span>  
The division property of logarithm should be use to make it as a single logarithm  
P(d) = log ( (d + 1)/ d)  
So the probability that the number 1 is the leading digit is
P(1) = log ( ( 1+1)/ 1)
P(1) = log ( 2)
<span>P(1) = 0.301</span>

The exact right answer fore this question would be...


Use the quotient property to rewrite the expression.

Write the difference of logs as the quotient log((d+1)/d).

Substitute 1 for d to get log(2).

Since log(2) = 0.30, the probability that the number 1 is the leading digit is about 30%.

Write a quadratic equation in standard form with the given roots of 3,-4
nexus9112 [7]

Answer:

Since the roots are 3, -4 then we must put

-3, 4 into this equation,

(x +a) * (x +b) = 0

(x -3) * (x +4) = 0 then multiplying

x^2 +x -12

Which set of ordered pairs could be generated by an exponential function?
klemol [59]

Answer: Third option.

Step-by-step explanation:

By definition, Exponential functions have the following form:

y = ab^x

Where "b" is the base (b > 0 and b\neq 1), "a" is a coefficient (a\neq 0) and "x" is the exponent.

 It is importat to remember that the "Zero exponent rule" states that  any base with an exponent of 0 is equal to 1.

Then, for an input value 0 (x=0) the output value (value of "y") of the set of ordered pairs that could be generated by an exponential function must be 1 (y=1).

You can observe in the Third option shown in the image that when x=0, y=1

 Therefore, the set of ordered pairs that could be generated by an exponential function is the set shown in the Third option.

Find the slope, Y-intercept, and equation (make sure there is no decimals if there is a decimal make it into a fraction)!
adelina 88 [10]

Answer:

Slope is 5/3

y-intercept = -3

y = 5/3x - 3

Step-by-step explanation:

To find the slope, take to coordinates and use the equation below

m = \frac{\text{rise}}{\text{run}} = \frac{y_2 - y_1}{x_2 - x_1}

7-2 = 5

6-3= 3

Now you have your slope which is 5/3

Then take the slope and input it into point slope form to get your y-intercept.

y-y₁=m(x-x₁)

y-2 = 5/3(x-3)

y-2=5/3x-5

add two to both sides to get Y by itself

y = 5/3x - 3

now you have your y-intercept, which is -3

Then check your answer by inputing two different coordinates for X and Y

7 = 5/3(6)-3

7=7

12= 5/3(9)-3

12=12

Y - 4x = 5<br> 8x - 2y = 16<br> Solve using system of equations
kumpel [21]

Answer:

No solution

Step-by-step explanation:

Let's solve this system using elimination through addition/subtraction.  Multiply the second equation by (1/2), which results in the system

y - 4x = 5

4x - y = 8

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

0x + 0y = 13.  This is NEVER true.  This system of equation has NO  SOLUTION.
