Answer:

x = 4.

Step-by-step explanation:

log(x + 6)- log(x - 3) = 1

Using the law log a - log b = log a/b:

log (x + 6)/ (x - 3) = 1

Removing logs:

(x + 6)/ (x - 3) = 10

x+ 6 = 10x - 30

9x = 36

x = 4 (answer).

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation

$log (x+6) - log (x-3) = 1 \\log \frac {x+6}{x-3} = log \ e\\x+6 = e(x-3)\\(1-e)x = -(e+3)\\x=\frac{e+3}{e-1}$

Step 1: on LHS the difference of two logs, is equal of the log of the division, on RHS, 1 is the log of the base, whatever the base is.

Rest is a 1st grade equation, isolate x, divide.

A climber is on a hike. After 2 hours he is at an altitude of 400 feet. After 6 hours he is at an altitude of 700 feet. Is the r

cluponka [151]

Answer:

not enough information

Step-by-step explanation:

Dividing altitude by hours, we find the ratios to be 400/2 = 200 ft/h and 700/6 = 116 2/3 ft/h.

These are not the same ratio, so altitude is not proportional to time.

___

However, that's not what the question asks. It ask about rate of change. We only have enough information to determine the rate of change between hour 2 and hour 6 is 300 ft in 4 hours, or 75 ft/hour. Since we don't have any other rate of change information, we cannot determine if the rate of change is proportional to anything.

_____

Comment on the question

We suspect the question is simply worded poorly, and that we're supposed to determine if altitude is proportional to hours. (It is not). If that is actually the question, "rate of change" needs to be left out of the question.

Bess [88]

Answer: see below

Step-by-step explanation:

Any value x such that |x| < 1 will make the conjecture false

In simpler words, let x be a fraction between 0 and 1.

One example: Let x = $\dfrac{1}{2}$

Then x⁴ = $\bigg(\dfrac{1}{2}\bigg)^4$

= $\dfrac{1}{16}$

$\dfrac{1}{16}$ < $\dfrac{1}{2}$

so the conjecture is false.

Answer:

Follow the steps and it will help on all the problems and it should help you out.

Step-by-step explanation:

You can make equivalent fractions by multiplying or dividing both top and bottom by the same amount.
You only multiply or divide, never add or subtract, to get an equivalent fraction.
Only divide when the top and bottom stay as whole numbers.
