Select all of the potential solution(s) of the equation 2log5x = log54.

Vanyuwa [196]

Answer:

x = ±2

Step-by-step explanation:

A equation is given to us , which is ,

$\longrightarrow 2log_5(x) = log_5 4$

From <u>properties </u><u>of </u><u>logarithm </u>we know that ,

$\longrightarrow alog\ m = log \ m^a$

Applying this to LHS , we have ;

$\longrightarrow log_5 x^2 = log_5 4$

Now the bases of logarithm on LHS and RHS is same . On comparing , we have ;

$\longrightarrow x^2 = 4$

Put square root on both sides,

$\longrightarrow x =\sqrt{4}$

Simplify ,

$\longrightarrow \underline{\underline{ x =\pm 2 }}$

This is the required answer.

300 ml over 15 min is what rate of ml per hour

Mama L [17]

Answer:

1200 ml per hour

Step-by-step explanation:

To compute what rate is 300 ml over 15 mins as a rate of ml per hour, we do a rule of 3, using a variable x as that amount of ml we don't know yet. We should have everything in the same units, so instead of writing 1 hour we write 60 minutes:

$\frac{300~ml}{15~min}=\frac{x~ml}{60~mins}$

Now we solve for x:

$\frac{300~ml}{15~min}\cdot 60~mins=x~ml$

$\frac{18000~ml}{15} =x~ml$

$1200~ml =x~ml$

And so, now that we know the value of x, the rate we wanted to find is

$\frac{1200~ml}{60~mins}$

Which is just 1200 ml per hour.
