Select the correct answer Consider functions p and q. p(x) = log₂ (x - 1) g(x) = 2^x - 1 Which statement is true about these fun

goldenfox [79]

The x-intercept of p(x) is x = 2, the x-intercept of g(x) is x = 0, then the correct option is B.

<h3>What can we say about the x-intercepts of the given functions?</h3>

For a function f(x), the x-intercept is the value of x such that:

f(x) = 0.

Here we have:

p(x) = log₂(x - 1)

Remember that:

logₙ(1) = 0

For any base n, then the x-intercept of p(x) is x = 2, because:

p(2) = log₂(2 - 1) = log₂(1) = 0.

The other function is:

g(x) = 2ˣ - 1

Remember that any number to the power of zero is equal to 1, then:

g(0) = 2⁰ - 1 = 1 - 1 = 0

The x-intercept of p(x) is x = 2, the x-intercept of g(x) is x = 0, then the correct option is B.

I'm horrible at this so can I please get help, the rest says "solve for a. a=

Inessa05 [86]

Answer:

a = $\sqrt{63}$

Step-by-step explanation:

Using Pythagoras' identity in the right triangle.

The square on the hypotenuse is equal to the sum of the squares on the other 2 sides, that is

a² + 9² = 12²

a² + 81 = 144 ( subtract 81 from both sides )

a² = 63 ( take square root of both sides )

a = $\sqrt{63}$

The population of cats in a rural neighborhood has declined in the last year by roughly 30%. Residents hypothesize that this is

zvonat [6]

Answer:

Orinal number of cats= 171

Step-by-step explanation:

Giving the following information:

Decrease in population= 30%

Current population= 120

To calculate the original number of cats, we need to use the following formula:

Orinal number of cats= current population / (1 - decrease)

Orinal number of cats= 120 / (1 - 0.3)

Orinal number of cats= 171

64 POINTS AWARDED, PLEASE ANSWER ASAP!!!!!

antoniya [11.8K]

Answer:

Area of rectangle = 40 square units

Step-by-step explanation:

Points to remember

Distance formula

Length of a line segment with end points (x₁, y₁) and (x₂, y₂) is given by,

Distance = √[(x₂ - x₁)² + (y₂ - y₁)²]

Area of rectangle = Length * Breadth

To find the length and breadth

Here a rectangle with vertices at (7, 3), (12, 3), (12, 11), and (7, 11)

Length1 = √[(x₂ - x₁)² + (y₂ - y₁)²]

√[(12 - 7)² + (3 - 3)²] = √5² = 5

Length2 = √[(x₂ - x₁)² + (y₂ - y₁)²]

√[(12 - 12)² + (11 - 3)²] = √8² = 8 units

Therefore Length of rectangle = 8 and

Breadth of rectangle = 5 units

To find the area of rectangle

Area = Length * Breadth

= 8 * 5 = 40 square units
