Answers:

When we evaluate a logarithm, we are finding the exponent, or power x, that the base b, needs to be raised so that it equals the argument m. The power is also known as the exponent.

$5^2 = 25 \to \log_5(25) = 2$

The value of b must be positive and not equal to 1

The value of m must be positive

If 0 < m < 1, then x < 0

A logarithmic equation is an equation with a variable that includes one or more logarithms.

===============================================

Explanation:

Logarithms, or log for short, basically undo what exponents do.

When going from $5^2 = 25$ to $\log_5(25) = 2$ , we have isolated the exponent.

More generally, we have $b^x = m$ turn into $\log_b(m) = x$

When using the change of base formula, notice how

$\log_b(m) = \frac{\log(m)}{\log(b)}$

If b = 1, then log(b) = log(1) = 0, meaning we have a division by zero error. So this is why $b \ne 1$

We need b > 0 as well because the domain of y = log(x) is the set of positive real numbers. So this is why m > 0 also.

the diameters of Douglas firs grown at a Christmas tree farm are normally distributed with a mean of 4 inches and a standard dev

aksik [14]

Answer:

Proportion of the trees will have diameters between 2 and 6 inches = 0.8164

Step-by-step explanation:

Given -

Mean $(\nu )$ = 4

Standard deviation $(\sigma )$ = 1.5

Let X be the diameter of tree

proportion of the trees will have diameters between 2 and 6 inches =

$P(2< X< 6)$ = $P(\frac{2 - 4 }{1.5}< \frac{X - \nu }{\sigma}< \frac{6 - 4 }{1.5})$

= $P(\frac{-2 }{1.5}< Z< \frac{2 }{1.5})$ Put [ $Z = \frac{X - \nu }{\sigma}$ ]

= $P(-1.33< Z< 1.33)$

= $(Z< 1.33) - (Z< -1.33)$

= .9082 - .0918

= 0.8164

Oakley charged $795 to his credit card last month. What is the first minimum payment he must make? (2 points)$25.00

DaniilM [7]

Answer:

$31.80

Step-by-step explanation:

The complete question is

Use the details of Oakley's new credit card to answer the question that follows. APR 11.9% compounded monthly Grace Period 28 days Minimum Payment 4% of the remaining balance or $25, whichever is higher Oakley charged $795 to his credit card last month. What is the first minimum payment he must make?

step 1

Find out the 4% of the balance of $795

$0.04(795)=\$31.80$

$\$31.80 >\$25$

This amount is higher than $25,

therefore

The first minimum payment he must make is $31.80
