Solve the equation log^7b>2
ahrayia [7]

Answer:

b > 12.71

Step-by-step explanation:

Here in this question we have to solve the inequality equation given for b (An unknown variable}

Now, the equation is (\log b)^{7} > 2

⇒ \log b > 2^{\frac{1}{7} }

We are taking the base of the log here is 10.

So, 10^{(\log b)} > 10^{2^{\frac{1}{7} } } {Since 10^{\log x} =x and e^{\ln x} = x}

⇒ b > 12.71 (Approximate) (Answer)

Solve the following word problem by using an equation and factoring. The sum of a positive number and its square is 20. What is
riadik2000 [5.3K]
Number:  n
square of number:  n^2
sum of n and n^2 is n+n^2=20
Rewriting this equation, we get n^2+n-20=0 = (n+5)(n-4) = 0

Then n+5=0 and n-4=0, so n = -5 and n = 4.

You must check both results.  It could happen that both are correct, or that only one is correct.
