One fifth of a number is subtracted from four fifth of the same number. If the result is 9, what is the number. ​

Let x be the unknown number. One fifth of this number is x/5, one fourth of this number is x/4. So, we have

\dfrac{x}{4}-\dfrac{x}{5} = \dfrac{5x-4x}{20} = \dfrac{x}{20}

We know that this difference equals 9, so we have

\dfrac{x}{20}=9

Multiply both sides by 20 to get

x=180

Which of the following expresses the possible number of positive real solutions for the polynomial equation shown below?
jarptica [38.1K]
In order to figure this out you need to use Descartes Rule. I attached a picture showing Descartes Rule.  If the signs changes for when x is positive then the number of times it changes are the possible positive solution. If the sign changes when x is negative then the number of times it changes are the possible negative solutions. With that said the answer is A. View the picture I have attached for the possible + - and imaginary solutions.

Answer = A) One possible positive solution.

NEED HELP ASAP!!!! PLEASEEE

The first answer of the missing blank is 4/5.

The second answer of the missing blank is 2.

The third answer of the missing blank is 25.

*For all of these solutions, I will be using the common rules for logarithms.*

Solution for the first question:

Log9^4/5 must equal log9^4-log9^5, or it could also equal the more proper version, which is simplified: 2log9^2-log9^5.

Solution for the second question:

Log3^22 must equal log3^11+log3^2, if you break it down.

Solution for the third question:

Log9^25 must equal 2log9^5 because it will be like this when simplifying it:

log9^25=2log9^5

log9^5²=2log9^5

2log9^5=2log9^5

These are all of the step-by-step procedures for all three of these given questions. Anyways, I hope that this helped you!

√32x^10y^n simplies to 4x^5y^3√2y

Then n = 7 because √y^7 = √(y^6 * y) = y^3√y

So √32x^10y^7 = 4x^5y^3√2y

Answer

n = 7
