Answer: £ 8

Step-by-step explanation:

Total hours Lena works from Monday to Friday = 34 hours

Hours she works on Saturdays = 4

Overtime rate of Saturday = 1.5 times her normal rate

Let x be the normal rate.

Then , Her total earning = 34 x + 4 \times(1.5x) =34x+6x=40x

Since her total earnings for week = £ 320

So,

320=40x\\\\\Rightarrow\ x=\dfrac{320}{40}\\\\\Rightarrow\ x=8

Thus, her normal rate of pay per hour = £ 8

Hannah has 4 liters of cooking oil in a bottle. She used 1 1/2 liters of the oil. How much liters of oil are left in the bottle?
Scrat [10]

Hannah has 2\frac{1}{2} liters of oil left in the bottle.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given,

Quantity of oil in bottle = 4 liters

Quantity used by Hannah = 1\frac{1}{2} = \frac{3}{2}

We will subtract the quantity used from the total quantity.

Oil left = Total oil - Oil used

Oil\ left=4-\frac{3}{2}

Taking LCM

Oil\ left=\frac{8-3}{2}\\\\Oil\ left=\frac{5}{2}\\\\Oil\ left=2\frac{1}{2}

Hannah has 2\frac{1}{2} liters of oil left in the bottle.

Rewrite the form In exponential form:<br> Log100 = x
andrey2020 [161]

Answer:

10^x=100

Step-by-step explanation:

You know how subtraction is the <em>opposite of addition </em>and division is the <em>opposite of multiplication</em>? A logarithm is the <em>opposite of an exponent</em>. You know how you can rewrite the equation 3 + 2 = 5 as 5 - 3 = 2, or the equation 3 × 2 = 6 as 6 ÷ 3 = 2? This is really useful when one of those numbers on the left is unknown. 3 + _ = 8 can be rewritten as 8 - 3 = _, 4 × _ = 12 can be rewritten as 12 ÷ 4 = _. We get all our knowns on one side and our unknown by itself on the other, and the rest is computation.

We know that 3^2=9; as a logarithm, the <em>exponent</em> gets moved to its own side of the equation, and we write the equation like this: \log_3{9}=2, which you read as "the logarithm base 3 of 9 is 2." You could also read it as "the power you need to raise 3 to to get 9 is 2."

One historical quirk: because we use the decimal system, it's assumed that an expression like \log1000 uses <em>base 10</em>, and you'd interpret it as "What power do I raise 10 to to get 1000?"

The expression \log100=x means "the power you need to raise 10 to to get 100 is x," or, rearranging: "10 to the x is equal to 100," which in symbols is 10^x=100.

(If we wanted to, we could also solve this: 10^2=100, so \log100=2)
