Answer:

1/3,5/12,3/4

Step-by-step explanation:

Ascending order means from the smallest to the biggest. firstly you find the least common multiple of the denominators of the fractions

the l.c.m of 12,3,and 4= 12

you then divide 12 from the denominators the answer you get multiply it with the numerators

i.e 5/12÷12=1,1×5=5

1/3 ÷ 12=4, 4×1= 4

3/4 ÷ 12=3,3×3=9

so you use the solutions of the above to determine the order of magnitude

i.e 1/3, 5/12,3/4

A number is more than 9 units from 3.

coldgirl [10]

Answer: It's either -6 or 12. I'm assuming it's 12 because it says "more than."

Answer:

The answer in the attached figure

Step-by-step explanation:

Let

x------> the abscissa

y-----> the ordinate

we know that

$y=2x$ -----> given problem

The domain is $[-1, 0, 1]$

For $x=-1$

$y=2(-1)=-2$

The point is $(-1,-2)$

For $x=0$

$y=2(0)=0$

The point is $(0,0)$

For $x=1$

$y=2(1)=2$

The point is $(1,2)$

Answer:

$2*log(x)+log(y)$

Step-by-step explanation:

So, there are two logarithmic identities you're going to need to know.

<em>Logarithm of a power</em>:

$log_ba^c=c*log_ba$

So to provide a quick proof and intuition as to why this works, let's consider the following logarithm: $log_ba=x\implies b^x=a$

Now if we raise both sides to the power of c, we get the following equation: $(b^x)^c=a^c$

Using the exponential identity: $(x^a)^c=x^{a*c}$

We get the equation: $b^{xc}=a^c$

If we convert this back into logarithmic form we get: $log_ba^c=x*c$

Since x was the basic logarithm we started with, we substitute it back in, to get the equation: $log_ba^c=c*log_ba$

Now the second logarithmic property you need to know is

<em>The Logarithm of a Product</em>:

$log_b{ac}=log_ba+log_bc$

Now for a quick proof, let's just say: $x=log_ba\text{ and }y=log_bc$

Now rewriting them both in exponential form, we get the equations:

$b^x=a\\b^y=c$

We can multiply a * c, and since b^x = a, and b^y = c, we can substitute that in for a * c, to get the following equation:

$b^x*b^y=a*c$

Using the exponential identity: $x^{a}*x^b=x^{a+b}$ , we can rewrite the equation as:

$b^{x+y}=ac$

taking the logarithm of both sides, we get:

$log_bac=x+y$

Since x and y are just the logarithms we started with, we can substitute them back in to get: $log_bac=log_ba+log_bc$

Now let's use these identities to rewrite the equation you gave

$log(x^2y)$

As you can see, this is a log of products, so we can separate it into two logarithms (with the same base)

$log(x^2)+log(y)$

Now using the logarithm of a power to rewrite the log(x^2) we get:

$2*log(x)+log(y)$

y = 2x squared + 5x -3 can be written in the form y= 2( x+a) squared + b . Find the value of a and the value of b.

Elan Coil [88]

General vertex form:

$y = m(x − a)² + b \: with \: vertex \: at \: (a, b)$

Given :

$y = 2x² + 5x - 3$

Extract "spread factor" m

$y = 2( x² + \frac{5}{2} x) - 3$

Complete the square

$y = 2(x² + \frac{5}{2}x + ( \frac{5}{4})²) - 3$

$- 2( \frac{5}{4})²$

Write as a squared binomial and simplify the constant

$y = 2(x + \frac{5}{4})² - 6 \frac{1}{8}$

Re-write to match signs of standard general form:

$y = 2(x - ( - \frac{5}{4}))² \: + ( - 6 \frac{1}{8})$
