Given:

Length of new pencil = 19 cm

Length of pencil after using a month = 8 cm

Question asked:

The pencil is centimeters shorter now than when it was new = ?

Solution:

Length of new pencil = 19 cm

Length of pencil after using a month = 8 cm

The pencil is centimeters shorter now than when it was new = 19 cm - 8 cm

= 11 cm

Length of pencil has been used during a month = 11 cm

What are the potential solutions to the equation 2ln(x+3)=0

skad [1K]

$2\ln(x+3)=0\implies \ln(x+3)^2=0\implies e^{\ln(x+3)^2}=e^0\implies (x+3)^2=1$

Expanding the left side gives

$x^2+6x+9=1\implies x^2+6x+8=0\implies (x+4)(x+2)=0$

which gives two solutions, $x=-4$ and $x=-2$ . But if $x=-4$ , then $\ln(x+3)=\ln(-1)$ , but this number isn't real, so $x=-4$ is an extraneous solution. Meanwhile if $x=-2$ , you get $\ln(-2+3)=\ln1=0$ , so this solution is correct.

"Potential solutions" might refer to both possibilities, but there is only one actual (real) solution.
