The function F(x)=log0.75^x is decreasing. True or false

We're given the following function:
f(x)=log(.75^x)=log[  (\frac{3}{4}) ^{x}]=log( \frac{3^x}{4^x})

In order to see if the function is decreasing we'll take its derivative. If \frac{d}{dx}f(x)\ \textgreater \ 1 the function is increasing, if \frac{d}{dx}f(x)\ \ \textless \  \ 1 the function is decreasing.

We take the derivate:
\frac{d}{dx}[log( \frac{3^x}{4^x})]= \frac{4^x}{3^x}[ \frac{d}{dx} (\frac{3^x}{4^x})]=\frac{4^x}{3^x} \frac{4^x[ \frac{d}{dx} (3^x)]-3^x[ \frac{d}{dx} (4^x)]}{ 4^2^x}=
\frac{4^x}{3^x} \frac{4^x[3^xlog(3)]-3^x[4^x[4^xlog(4)]}{ 4^2^x}=log(3)-log(4)\ \textless \ 0

Which implies the function is decreasing.

Another way to answer the problem (although less insightful) you can take any two real numbers k and q such that k\ \textgreater \ q, then if f(k)-f(q)\ \textgreater \ 0 the function is increasing and if f(k)-f(q)\ \textless \ 0 the function is decreasing. You can verify the function is decreasing with any two numbers in the function's domain.

Answer:

16/13

Step-by-step explanation:

the error is when it was divided, one of the fractions should be reversed to be multiplied

<u> </u><u>4</u><u> </u><u> </u> ÷ <u> </u><u>1</u><u>3</u><u> </u>

7. 28

<u> </u><u>4</u><u> </u> × <u>2</u><u>8</u><u> </u> ,like this

7. 13

= <u> </u><u>1</u><u>1</u><u>2</u><u> </u> ,divide both by 7

3. What is the solution to the equation 3x = 15? Express the
ivanzaharov [21]

Answer:

x=2.4650

Step-by-step explanation:

I assume that you mean 3^x=15

so let s use the ln() function

ln(3^x)= xln(3)=ln(15)

so x = ln(15)/ln(3)

x = 2.4650

(Angle/triangle problem 25points)<br> What is the value of X?
Serhud [2]

Answer:

x = 5

Step-by-step explanation:

The sum of the 3 angles in a triangle = 180°

Sum the 3 angles in the triangle and equate to 180, that is

10x - 4 + 8x + 3 + 91 = 180

18x + 90 = 180 ( subtract 90 from both sides )

18x = 90 ( divide both sides by 18 )

x = 5
