Larissa argued that since log2(2) = 1 and log2(4) = 2, then it must be true that log2(3) = 1.5. Is she correct?

Answer:

2^{1.5} = 2.8284. This means that Larissa is not correct.

Step-by-step explanation:

To solve logarithms, we have to consider the following:

\log_{a}(b) = c means that a^{c} = b.

So, for example:

log_{2}(2) = 1 because 2^{1} = 2.

log_{2}(4) = 2 because 2^{2} = 4.

If 2^{1.5} = 3, then Larissa is correct. However, 2^{1.5} = 2.8284. This means that Larissa is not correct.

Step 1) Draw a dashed line through the points (0,6) and (4,7). These two points are on the line y = (1/4)x+6. To find those points, you plug in x = 0 to get y = 6. Similarly, plug in x = 4 to get y = 7. The dashed line indicates that none of the points on this line are part of the solution set.

Step 2) Draw a dashed line through (0,-1) and (1,1). These two points are on the line y = 2x-1. They are found in a similar fashion as done in step 1. 

Step 3) Shade the region that is above both dashed lines. We shade above because of the "greater than" sign. This is shown in the attached image I am providing below. The red shaded region represents all of the possible points that are the solution set. Once again, any point on the dashed line is not in the solution set.

What is the equation of a line with a slope of 2 and a y intercept of -5?
Elanso [62]

Answer:

y=2x-5

Step-by-step explanation:

The slope is how you move so you could also call it m

The y intercept is where you begin so you could call it b

So every time you need to find the equation or which one is like the slope just remember m=move b= begin

y=mx+b
