Mathematics

\bf \textit{exponential form of a logarithm} \\\\ \log_a b=y \implies a^y= b\qquad\qquad a^y= b\implies \log_a b=y \\\\\\ \begin{array}{llll} \textit{Logarithm of exponentials} \\\\ \log_a\left( x^b \right)\implies b\cdot \log_a(x) \end{array} ~\hspace{7em} \begin{array}{llll} \textit{Logarithm Cancellation Rules} \\\\ log_a a^x = x\qquad \qquad \stackrel{\textit{we'll use this one}}{a^{log_a x}=x} \end{array} \\\\[-0.35em] \rule{34em}{0.25pt}

\bf \log_2(x-1)=\log_8(x^3-2x^2-2x+5) \\\\\\ \log_2(x-1)=\log_{2^3}(x^3-2x^2-2x+5) \\\\\\ \log_{2^3}(x^3-2x^2-2x+5)=\log_2(x-1) \\\\\\ \stackrel{\textit{writing this in exponential notation}}{(2^3)^{\log_2(x-1)}=x^3-2x^2-2x+5}\implies (2)^{3\log_2(x-1)}=x^3-2x^2-2x+5

\bf (2)^{\log_2[(x-1)^3]}=x^3-2x^2-2x+5\implies \stackrel{\textit{using the cancellation rule}}{(x-1)^3=x^3-2x^2-2x+5} \\\\\\ \stackrel{\textit{expanding the left-side}}{x^3-3x^2+3x-1}=x^3-2x^2-2x+5\implies 0=x^2-5x+6 \\\\\\ 0=(x-3)(x-2)\implies x= \begin{cases} 3\\ 2 \end{cases}

andrezito [222]

Answer:

probability that Marnie and Noomi are both selected=0.1

Step-by-step explanation:

A group of 5 managers (Joon, Kendra, Lee, Marnie and Noomi), 2 people are randomly selected to attend a conference in Las Vegas.

the possibility of selecting 2 from 5 manages is 5C2 ways

5C2= \frac{5!}{2!(5-2)!} =10

There is only one choice of selecting Marine and Noomi from 5 managers

So probability of selecting Marine and Noomi is

\frac{1}{10} =0.1
