This is just combining like terms.....
6n2 - 5n2 + 7n2
n2 + 7n2
=8n2
The lines would go up and over at the same rate. They would have the same slope, like parallel lines.
Hope this helps!! :)
Answer:
x = 4
Explanation:
For the right hand side:
log base 9 of 8 + log base 9 of (x-2) = log base 9 (8*(x-2))
= log base 9 of (8x-16)
For the left hand side:
2*log base 9 of x = log base 9 of x^2
Now, equating the two sides and solving for x:
log base 9 of (8x-16) = log base 9 of x^2
This means that:
x^2 = 8x - 16
x^2 - 8x + 16 = 0
(x-4)^2 = 0
Therefore:
x = 4
