Suppose Set B contains 69 elements and the total number elements in either Set A or Set B is 107. If the Sets A and B have 13 el

ements in common, how many elements are contained in set A?

Set A or B refers to the union of A and B, in other words how many element there are in TOTAL. We are told Set B has 69 elements, but that 13 of them overlap with Set A. This means Set B has 69-13=56 unique elements, and all others are therefore part of set A. If there are 107 elements in total, Set A has 107-56=51 elements.

Use the equation and type the ordered-pairs. y = log 3 x {(1/3, a0), (1, a1), (3, a2), (9, a3), (27, a4), (81, a5)

vagabundo [1.1K]

Answer:

Considering the given equation $y = log_{3}x\\$

And the ordered pairs in the format $(x, y)$

I don't know if it is log of base 3 or 10, but I will assume it is 3.

For $(\frac{1}{3}, a_{0} )$

$x=\frac{1}{3}$

$y=a_{0}$

$y = log_{3}x\\y = log_{3}(\frac{1}{3} )\\y=-\log _3\left(3\right)\\y=-1$

So the ordered pair will be $(\frac{1}{3}, -1 )$

For $(1, a_{1} )$

$x=1$

$y=a_{1}$

$y = log_{3}x\\y = log_{3}1\\y = log_{3}(1)\\Note: \log _a(1)=0\\y = 0$

So the ordered pair will be $(1, 0 )$

For $(3, a_{2} )$

$x=3$

$y=a_{2}$

$y = log_{3}x\\y = log_{3}3\\y = 1$

So the ordered pair will be $(3, 1 )$

For $(9, a_{3} )$

$x=9$

$y=a_{3}$

$y = log_{3}x\\y = log_{3}9\\y=2\log _3\left(3\right)\\y=2$

So the ordered pair will be $(9, 2 )$

For $(27, a_{4} )$

$x=27$

$y=a_{4}$

$y = log_{3}x\\y = log_{3}27\\y=3\log _3\left(3\right)\\y=3$

So the ordered pair will be $(27, 3 )$

For $(81, a_{5} )$

$x=81$

$y=a_{5}$

$y = log_{3}x\\y = log_{3}81\\y=4\log _3\left(3\right)\\y=4$

So the ordered pair will be $(81, 4 )$

Find the value of k for which the line y = kx + 6 is a tangent to the curve x^2 + y^2 – 10x + 8y = 84

guajiro [1.7K]

Answer:

k = 1/2

Step-by-step explanation:

input y = kx +6 into the equation of the curve x² + y² – 10x + 8y = 84

x² + (kx + 6)² - 10x + 8(kx + 6) = 84

expand:

x² + k²x² + 12kx + 36 - 10x + 8kx + 48 = 84

simplify by collecting like terms:

x² + k²x² + 20kx - 10x + 84 = 84

subtract 84 on both sides to bring it to the left:

x² + k²x² + 20kx - 10x + 84 - 84 = 0

x² + k²x² + 20kx - 10x = 0

factorise out x:

x²(1 + k²) + x(20k - 10) = 0

using the discriminant b² - 4ac where b is 20k - 10, a is 1 + k² and c is 0, substitute them in the formula b² - 4ac:

b² - 4ac

(20k - 10)² - 4(1 + k²)(0) = 0

the part highlighted in bold is gone because it's all multiplied by 0, so we are left with (20k - 10)² = 0

(20k - 10)² is the same as

(20k - 10)(20k - 10)

equate both to 0

20k - 10 = 0 and 20k - 10 = 0

add 10 on both sides

20k = 10 and 20k = 10

divide 20 on both sides

k = 10/20 and k = 10/20 which are both the same

10/20 is simplified to 1/2

k = 1/2

Solve for x:<br> I need a answer with an explanation. Algebra 1

kirill115 [55]

Answer: x = -1

Step-by-step explanation:

You need to convert to the same base

$\frac{1}{16} = \frac{1}{2^{4} } = 2^{-4}$

So

$2^{-4} = 2^{-2x-6}$

For these values to be equal, the exponents have to be equal

-4 = -2x - 6

2 = -2x

x = -1

Show work. This is a BC calculus problem.

stepan [7]

Answer:

D.

Step-by-step explanation:

Remember that the limit definition of a derivative at a point is:

$\displaystyle{\frac{d}{dx}[f(a)]= \lim_{x \to a}\frac{f(x)-f(a)}{x-a}}$

Hence, if we let f(x) be ln(x+1) and a be 1, this will yield:

$\displaystyle{\frac{d}{dx}[f(1)]= \lim_{x \to 1}\frac{\ln(x+1)-\ln(2)}{x-1}}$

Hence, the limit is equivalent to the derivative of f(x) at x=1, or f’(1).

The answer will thus be D.
