Answer:

x = -59/66

Step-by-step explanation:

Solve for x over the real numbers:

log(7) - log(x + 1) = log(66)

Subtract log(7) from both sides:

-log(x + 1) = log(66) - log(7)

Multiply both sides by -1:

log(x + 1) = log(7) - log(66)

log(7) - log(66) = log(7) + log(1/66) = log(7) + log(1/66) = log(7/66) = log(7/66):

log(x + 1) = log(7/66)

Cancel logarithms by taking exp of both sides:

x + 1 = 7/66

Subtract 1 from both sides:

Answer: x = -59/66

The scale factor is 1/3.

To find this scale factor, choose a set of sides to compare lengths. For example, taking the left sides of the triangles, which is 9 and 3. 9 is 3 times bigger than the triangle on the right, so that gives us the scale factor of 1/3.

What is the equation in point slope form of the line that is parallel to the given line and passes through the point (4,1)?

vovikov84 [41]

keeping in mind that parallel lines have exactly the same slope, let's check for the slope of the equation above

$y-1=\stackrel{\stackrel{m}{\downarrow }}{2}(x-4)\qquad \impliedby \begin{array}{|c|ll} \cline{1-1} \textit{point-slope form}\\ \cline{1-1} \\ y-y_1=m(x-x_1) \\\\ \cline{1-1} \end{array}$

so we're really looking for the equation of a line with a slope of 2 and that it passes through (4 , 1)

$(\stackrel{x_1}{4}~,~\stackrel{y_1}{1})\hspace{10em} \stackrel{slope}{m} ~=~ 2 \\\\\\ \begin{array}{|c|ll} \cline{1-1} \textit{point-slope form}\\ \cline{1-1} \\ y-y_1=m(x-x_1) \\\\ \cline{1-1} \end{array}\implies y-\stackrel{y_1}{1}=\stackrel{m}{2}(x-\stackrel{x_1}{4})$
