Move all the logarithms on the left hand side, and all the constants on the other:

\log_2(x-2) - \log_2(x) = -1

Use the rule of logarithms

\log_a(b) - \log_a(c) = \log_a\left(\dfrac{b}{c}\right)

To rewrite the equation as

\log_2\left(\dfrac{x-2}{x}\right) = -1

Evaluate 2 to the power of each side:

\dfrac{x-2}{x} = 2^{-1} = \dfrac{1}{2}

Multiply both sides by 2x:

2(x-2) = x \iff 2x-4 = x \iff x = 4

1 + log₂(x - 2) = log₂(x)

1 = log₂(x) - log₂(x - 2)

1 = log₂\frac{x}{x - 2}

2¹ = \frac{x}{x - 2}

2(x - 2) = x

2x - 4 = x

    -4 = -x

     4 = x

Answer: 4

Detroit received 8 over 5 inches of snow in the morning. The city recorded of an 3 over 5inch of snow in the evening. What was t
xenn [34]

Answer:

11/5 inches

Step-by-step explanation:

total snowfall for the day = snowfall in morning + snowfall in evening

= 8 over 5 + 3 over 5 (all in inches)

= 8/5 + 3/5 (all in inches)

Since the denominators are the same (5), we can simply add the numerators up while keeping the denominator

(8/5 + 3/5) inches= (8+3)/5 inches = 11/5 inches = total snowfall for the day
