If you want to solve for x, then the answer is x = 6*sqrt(2) where "sqrt" is shorthand for "square root"

Explanation:

All logs below are base 4

log(5) - log(18) = log(20) - 2*log(x)

log(5) - log(18) = log(20) - log(x^2)

log(5/18) = log(20/x^2)

5/18 = 20/x^2 ... raise both sides as exponents (base = 4); logs cancel

5x^2 = 18*20 ... cross multiply

5x^2 = 360

x^2 = 360/5 ... divide both sides by 5

x^2 = 72

x = sqrt(72) ... see note below.

x = sqrt(36*2)

x = sqrt(36)*sqrt(2)

x = 6*sqrt(2)

note: we only consider the positive solution for x because x cannot be negative. We cannot input negative x values into log(x). The domain of log(x) is x > 0. So we don't consider "plus/minus" for the square root.

Graph - 9x + 6y = 18 using linear standard form
postnew [5]

Answer:

The graph is attached Below and the plotting is given below.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given:

-9x + 6y = 18

Solution:

To draw a line on a graph the required minimum two points but here we will have three points as point A, point B, and point C.

For point A

Put x = -4 in the given equation we get

-9×-4 + 6y = 18

6y = 18-36

∴ y=\frac{-18}{3}\\ \\y=-3

∴ Point A ≡ ( -4, -3 ).

For point B

Put x = -2 in the given equation we get

-9×-2 + 6y = 18

6y = 18 - 18

6y = 0

∴ y=\frac{0}{3}\\ \\y=0

∴ Point B ≡ ( -2, 0 ).

For point C

Put x = 0 in the given equation we get

-9×0 + 6y = 18

6y = 18

∴ y=\frac{18}{3}\\ \\y=3

∴ Point C ≡ ( 0, 3 ).

Now we have Point A ,B and C join it and you will have Line.

Roy and Sam start solving the equation as follows.
denpristay [2]

Answer:

The correct option is D.

Step-by-step explanation:

The given equation is

-3x+4=5x-6

According to the addition property of equality a=b and a+c=b+c are equivalent equations.

Use addition property of equality, add 3x on both the sides.

-3x+4+3x=5x-6+3x

4=8x-6

Therefore Sam's work is incorrect because he make calculation mistake.

According to the subtraction property of equality a=b and a-c=b-c are equivalent equations.

Use subtraction property of equality, subtract 5x from both the sides.

-3x+4-5x=5x-6-5x

-8x+4=-6

Therefore Roy's work is correct because he used subtraction property.

Option D is correct.
