Write a decimal for 10 times as much of 3.0

Which ordered pair is a solution of the equation?

frosja888 [35]

First simplify the equation.

3x+3y= -x+5y

4x=2y

2x=y

y=2x

Means that the y value is 2 times the x value.

answer: C but there are more solutions than just (1,2) and (2,4)

Use the change-of-basis identity,

$\log_x(y) = \dfrac{\ln(y)}{\ln(x)}$

to write

$xyz = \log_a(bc) \log_b(ac) \log_c(ab) = \dfrac{\ln(bc) \ln(ac) \ln(ab)}{\ln(a) \ln(b) \ln(c)}$

Use the product-to-sum identity,

$\log_x(yz) = \log_x(y) + \log_x(z)$

to write

$xyz = \dfrac{(\ln(b) + \ln(c)) (\ln(a) + \ln(c)) (\ln(a) + \ln(b))}{\ln(a) \ln(b) \ln(c)}$

Redistribute the factors on the left side as

$xyz = \dfrac{\ln(b) + \ln(c)}{\ln(b)} \times \dfrac{\ln(a) + \ln(c)}{\ln(c)} \times \dfrac{\ln(a) + \ln(b)}{\ln(a)}$

and simplify to

$xyz = \left(1 + \dfrac{\ln(c)}{\ln(b)}\right) \left(1 + \dfrac{\ln(a)}{\ln(c)}\right) \left(1 + \dfrac{\ln(b)}{\ln(a)}\right)$

Now expand the right side:

$xyz = 1 + \dfrac{\ln(c)}{\ln(b)} + \dfrac{\ln(a)}{\ln(c)} + \dfrac{\ln(b)}{\ln(a)} \\\\ ~~~~~~~~~~~~+ \dfrac{\ln(c)\ln(a)}{\ln(b)\ln(c)} + \dfrac{\ln(c)\ln(b)}{\ln(b)\ln(a)} + \dfrac{\ln(a)\ln(b)}{\ln(c)\ln(a)} \\\\ ~~~~~~~~~~~~ + \dfrac{\ln(c)\ln(a)\ln(b)}{\ln(b)\ln(c)\ln(a)}$

Simplify and rewrite using the logarithm properties mentioned earlier.

$xyz = 1 + \dfrac{\ln(c)}{\ln(b)} + \dfrac{\ln(a)}{\ln(c)} + \dfrac{\ln(b)}{\ln(a)} + \dfrac{\ln(a)}{\ln(b)} + \dfrac{\ln(c)}{\ln(a)} + \dfrac{\ln(b)}{\ln(c)} + 1$
