The 8-ounce box costs $2.88, while the 12-ounce box costs $3.60

First Box

The 8-ounce box costs $2.88

cost of 8 ounce box = 2.88

cost of 1 ounce box = \frac{2.88}{8}=0.36

Cost of 1 ounce of  first box = $0.36

Second Box

The 12-ounce box costs $3.60

cost of 12 ounce box = 3.60

cost of 1 ounce box = \frac{3.60}{12}=0.3

Cost of 1 ounce of  second box = $0.3

The cost of 1 ounce of first box is greater than the cost of 1 ounce of second box. So second box is better to by

12-ounce box costs $3.60 is better to buy

1/2 ln(x + 3) - lnx = 0 solve for x
rusak2 [61]
1

 

Simplify \frac{1}{2}\imath n(x+3)​2​​1​​ın(x+3) to \frac{\imath n(x+3)}{2}​2​​ın(x+3)​​

\frac{\imath n(x+3)}{2}-\imath nx=0​2​​ın(x+3)​​−ınx=0


2

 

Add \imath nxınx to both sides

\frac{\imath n(x+3)}{2}=\imath nx​2​​ın(x+3)​​=ınx


3

 

Multiply both sides by 22

\imath n(x+3)=\imath nx\times 2ın(x+3)=ınx×2


4

 

Regroup terms

\imath n(x+3)=nx\times 2\imathın(x+3)=nx×2ı


5

 

Cancel \imathı on both sides

n(x+3)=nx\times 2n(x+3)=nx×2


6

 

Divide both sides by nn

x+3=\frac{nx\times 2}{n}x+3=​n​​nx×2​​


7

 

Subtract 33 from both sides

x=\frac{nx\times 2}{n}-3x=​n​​nx×2​​−3

The side lengths of a right triangle are 2,3, and 4 determine whether this set of numbers forms a right triangle
sergejj [24]

Answer:

NO.

Step-by-step explanation:

The formula of the sides of a right triangle is a^{2}+ b^{2}= c^{2}, where c is the longest side. 2 squared is 4. 3 squared is 9. Adding them up gives you 13, and 4 squared is 16. 16 does not equal 13 so no.
