Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

For some side lengths to create a triangle, any two of the side lengths must have an added length together of less than the third leg. Otherwise, the vertices would simply not be able to be connected by the lines. In a), 3+5=8, but since it is not more, the triangle will not be able to be formed (it would basically just be a line.) In B, 7+8< 16. In C, there is the same situation as with the first example (4+15=19). Finally, in the last one, 5+7>12, and all of the side lengths work out. Therefore, the correct answer is D. Hope this helps!

Which figure represents an undefined term?

notka56 [123]

In geometry, an undefined term is a basic figure that cannot be defined in terms of other figures.
The undefined terms in geometry are: point, line and plane.

Since you have not attached any figures, I cannot tell you which one is correct. Just choose the figure that is either a point, a line or a plane.

Answers:

When we evaluate a logarithm, we are finding the exponent, or power x, that the base b, needs to be raised so that it equals the argument m. The power is also known as the exponent.

$5^2 = 25 \to \log_5(25) = 2$

The value of b must be positive and not equal to 1

The value of m must be positive

If 0 < m < 1, then x < 0

A logarithmic equation is an equation with a variable that includes one or more logarithms.

===============================================

Explanation:

Logarithms, or log for short, basically undo what exponents do.

When going from $5^2 = 25$ to $\log_5(25) = 2$ , we have isolated the exponent.

More generally, we have $b^x = m$ turn into $\log_b(m) = x$

When using the change of base formula, notice how

$\log_b(m) = \frac{\log(m)}{\log(b)}$

If b = 1, then log(b) = log(1) = 0, meaning we have a division by zero error. So this is why $b \ne 1$

We need b > 0 as well because the domain of y = log(x) is the set of positive real numbers. So this is why m > 0 also.

Write an equation of a line (in standard form) that has the same slope as the line 3x-5y=7 and the same y-intercept as the line

Vanyuwa [196]

Answer:

$3x-5y=-20$

Step-by-step explanation:

We can write the equation of a line in 3 different forms including slope intercept, point-slope, and standard depending on the information we have. We have two standard form equations which we will get a slope and a y-intercept from. We will convert each to slope intercept form to get the information. We will then write a new slope-intercept equation and convert to standard form.

3x-5y=7 has the same slope as the line. Let's convert.

$3x-5y=7\\3x-3x-5y=7-3x\\-5y=7-3x\\\frac{-5y}{-5}=\frac{7-3x}{-5} \\$

$y=\frac{3}{5}x -\frac{7}{5}$

The slope is $m=\frac{3}{5}$ .

2y-9x=8 has the same y-intercept as the line. Let's convert.

$2y-9x=8\\2y-9x+9x=8+9x\\2y=8+9x\\\frac{2y}{2}=\frac{8+9x}{2}$

$y=\frac{8}{2}+\frac{9x}{2} \\y=4+\frac{9}{2}x$

The y-intercept is 4.

We take $m=\frac{3}{5}$ and b=4 and substitute into y=mx+b.

$y=\frac{3}{5}x+4$

We now convert to standard form.

$-\frac{3}{5}x+y=\frac{3}{5}x-\frac{3}{5}x+4\\-\frac{3}{5}x+y=4$

For standard form we need the coefficients of x and y to be not zero or fractions. We need integers but the coefficient of x cannot be negative. So we multiply the entire equation by -5 to clear the denominators.

$-5(-\frac{3}{5}x+y=4)\\3x-5y=-20$
