12% off of 32, because the price is lower than it would be if 17% was taken off of 35

The first option equals 29.05. I know this because I subtracted 17 off of 100%, then multiplied 35 by the percent of 83.

The second option equals 28.16. I used the same method, so the correct answer is the second one.

choose the single logarithm expression that is equivalent to the one shown 1 / 3 log 3x + 2 / 3 log 3x

alexgriva [62]

Answer:

$\log (3x)$

Step-by-step explanation:

The given logarithmic expression is:

$\frac{1}{3}\log(3x)+ \frac{2}{3}\log(3x)$

This is the same as:

$\frac{1}{3}\log(3x)+ \frac{1}{3}\log(3x)^2$

$\frac{1}{3}(\log(3x)+ \log(3x)^2)$

We now apply the product rule to get:

$\frac{1}{3}\log(3x)\times (3x)^2$

$\frac{1}{3}\log (3x)^3$

We now apply the power rule to get;

$\frac{3}{3}\log (3x)=\log (3x)$

Show that (-27x-9) / (3x^2+4x+1) is a transformation of 1/x.

Dominik [7]

Since the quotient of -27x + 9 and 3x² + 4x + 1 is equal to -9x⁻¹, it is equal to -9/x, which is a trans for mation of 1/x.
