Hello from MrBillDoesMath!
Answer:
x = 19
Discussion:
Both sides are logarithms to the same base, namely 20
, which implies the expressions in x (what we are taking logarithms of) must be equal. So we need to solve
4x - 10 = 3x + 9 => subtract 3x from both sides
4x-3x - 10 = 9 => add 10 to both sides
x = 9 + 10 = 19
Thank you,

Answer:
h(-4) = -4
Step-by-step explanation:
Since x is given (x = -4). Then, all you need to do is log in -4 for each value of x
h(-4) =
−
(
−
4
)
2
-3(-4)
h(-4) = -(16) + 12 = -4
Part A)The given equation is:

The radicand or discriminant(d) of the equation will be:

Since the discriminant is equal to 0, the given quadratic equation has only 1 root. In other words we can say the the given equation is a perfect square.
Part B)The given equation is:

We can solve this expression by factorization. Factors of middle term are to be made in such a way that their product equals the product of first and third term and sum is equal to the middle term i.e. product should be 4x² and sum should be -4x.
So the two such terms are -2x and -2x. Using the factors and simplifying the equation by taking common we get:
