Posted to your other question as well:

So we have:

A) \log_x(36)=2

B) \log_3(2x-9)=3

C) \log_3(216)=x

D) \log_3(-2x-3)=2

We need to try x = –6 in each equation until we find a solution that makes both sides of the equation equal.

For A, this gives an undefined result. Logarithms are only defined for bases that are positive real numbers not equal to 1.

For B, this again gives an undefined result. The logarithm of a number is only defined when that number is a positive real number. It would be –21, which is undefined.

For C, we have a defined operation, but \log_3(216)=4.893 \neq -6.

Finally, for D, we have 

\log_3(-2(-6)-3)=2\\ \log_3(9)=2 \\ 3^2=9 \\ 9=9

This is true.

It’s for my geometry class and I don’t know how to solve it. Can someone please help me?
dusya [7]

Answer:

Below in bold.

Step-by-step explanation:

Because the 2 sides marked with the double lines are equal:

5y-1 = 2y+11

3y = 12

y = 4.

Also :

3x-5 + 2(2x+5) = 180

3x - 5 + 4x + 10 = 180

7x = 180 + 5 -10

7x = 175

x = 175/7 = 25.

Cody's rent is increasing by $51 per month starting next year. That is an increase of 15% from his current monthly rent. Let r r
Inessa05 [86]

Answer:

r = 43.35

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

Current\ Rent = r

Increment = 15\%

New\ Rent = \$51

Required

Determine the value of r

The value of r can be set up percentage increase formula as follows:

\%Increment  = \frac{New\ Rent - Current\ Rent}{Current\ Rent}

Substitute values in the above equation

15\% = \frac{51 - r}{51}

Cross Multiply

51 - r = 15\% * 51

Convert percentage to decimal

51 - r = 0.15 * 51

51 - r = 7.65

And the value of r\ is\ calculated\ using:

r = 51 -7.65

r = 43.35

Hence, Cody's current rent is $43.35 monthly

hram777 [196]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

In a study of the relationship between pet ownership and physical activity in older adults, 586 subjects reported that they owned a pet, while 1931 reported that they did not. Give a 98% confidence interval for the proportion of older adults in this population who are pet owners. Lower limit Incorrect: Your answer is incorrect. Upper limit

p ± z × (1 - p/n)

z = 98%

p = 586/1931

= 0.3034697048

n = 1931

Approximately = 0.3035

Confidence interval =

0.3035 + 2.326 × ( 1 - 0.3035/ 1931)
