Answer:x=1

Step-by-step explanation:

log(3x-1)+log2=log4+log(x+2)

log(2(3x-1))=log(4(x+2))

Cancel log on both sides

2(3x-1)=4(x+2)

Open brackets

6x-2=4x+8

Collect like terms

6x-4x=8+2

10x=10

Divide both sides by 10

10x/10=10/10

x=1

Answer:

x=5

Step-by-step explanation:

log(3x-1)+log2=log4+log(x+2)

log(2(3x-1))=log(4(x+2))

Cancel log on both sides

2(3x-1)=4(x+2)

Open brackets

6x-2=4x+8

Collect like terms

6x-4x=8+2

2x=10

Divide both sides by 2

2x/2=10/2

x=5

Sarah rides her horse for 2 1/6 hrs with a constant speed of 6 km/hr and then for another 2 hours and 5 minutes with a constant

yan [13]

We know that
speed=distance/time

1) Sarah rides her horse for 2 1/6 hrs with a constant speed of 6 km/hr
time=2 1/6 hrs----> 13/6 hrs
speed=6 km/h
distance=speed*time----> 6*(13/6)---> 13 km

2)for another 2 hours and 5 minutes with a constant speed of 12 km/hr
time=2hrs+5 minutes----> 2+(5/60)--> 125/60 hrs
speed=12 km/hrs
distance=speed*time----> 12*(125/60)---> 25 km

3) find the average speed for the total trip
total distance=13 km+25 km----> 38 km
total time=(13/6)+(125/60)----> (10*13+125)/60----> 4.25 hours
speed=38/4.25----> 8.94 km/hrs

the answer is
8.94 km/hrs
