$Formula\ for\ lagarythm:\\
log_ab=c\ \ \ ----> a^c=b\\\\Base\ of\ ln \ is\ e=2,7\\\\ln(x-3)=ln(7x-23)-ln(x+1)\\\\
ln(x-3)=ln(\frac{7x-23}{x+1})\ \ \ | subtract\ ln(\frac{7x-23}{x+1})\\\\
ln(\frac{\frac{7x-23}{x+1}}{x-3})=0\\\\
ln(\frac{7x-23}{(x+1)(x-3)})=0\\\\
2,7^0=\frac{7x-23}{(x+1)(x-3)}\\\\
1=\frac{7x-23}{(x+1)(x-3)}\ \ \ | multiply\ by\ (x+1)(x-3)\\\\
(x+1)(x-3)=7x-23\\\\
x^2-3x+x-3=7x-23\\\\
x^2-9x-26=0\\\\x=\frac{1}{2}(9-\sqrt{185})\ \ or\ \ x=\frac{1}{2}(9+\sqrt{185})

Which symbol creates a true sentence when x equals 3?

Marta_Voda [28]

Hi <span>Tysona90!
Let's write it with the X as a 3
8*3-4*3_7(10-3) Now let's solve it 8*3 is 24 and 4*3 is 12 so then we do 24-12 which is 12. So now we have 12_7(10-3) so let's solve the other half which is 10-3 is 7 times 7 (since parenthesis can also mean multiplication) which is 49 so we now have 12_49 which means the answer is A.
Hope this helps!</span>

A landscaper has enough cement to make a patio with an area of 150 Sq ft. The homeowner wants the length of the patio to be 6 ft

Natasha_Volkova [10]

$A=lw=150\\l=w+6\\(w+6)w=150\\w^2+6w=150\\w^2+6w-150=0\\w=\frac{-b+-\sqrt{b^2-4ac}}{2a}\\w=\frac{-(6)+-\sqrt{(6)^2-4(1)(-150)}}{2(1)}\\w=\frac{-6+-\sqrt{36+600}}{2}\\w=\frac{-6+-\sqrt{636}}{2}\\w=\frac{-6+-2\sqrt{159}}{2}\\w=-3+-\sqrt{159}>0\\w=-3+\sqrt{159}\\\\l=(-3+\sqrt{159})+6\\l=3+\sqrt{159}$

Width = -3 + sqrt(159)
Length = 3 + sqrt(159)

GARDEN Amanda is planting flowers in a rectangular garden. She wants to know the amount of space in her backyard the garden will

Andrew [12]

The function A(x) = 2x²-3x-2 represents the area of the garden.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given,

Length of rectangular garden is given by;

L(x) = 2x+1

Width of rectangular garden is given by;

W(x) = x-2

Area of rectangular garden;

A(x) = L(x) * W(x)

$A(x) = (2x+1)(x-2)\\A(x) = 2x(x-2)+1(x-2)\\A(x) =2x^2-4x+x-2\\A(x) = 2x^2-3x-2$

The function A(x) = 2x²-3x-2 represents the area of the garden.
