To do this we take the outlier off the parenthesis (the 4) and multiply it by the two numbers inside the parenthesis...

4*7 + 4*8

28+32

10. Explain why log328 is between 3 and 4.

maw [93]

Answer:

See explanation.

(Before continuing reading, I took the base to be 3. Please tell me if you didn't want the base to be 3.)

Step-by-step explanation:

I assume 3 is suppose to be the base. Let's list some values that can be written as 3 to some integer.

3^0=1

3^1=3

3^2=9

3^3=27

3^4=81

3^5=243

......

I could have also did negative integer powers, but this is all I really need to convince you that log_3(28) is between 3 and 4.

log_3(28) means the value x such that 3^x=28.

Since 28 is between 27 and 81 in my list above, that means 3^x is between 3^3 and 3^4. This means that x is a value between 3 and 4.

Two teachers purchase supplies for their classrooms.

inna [77]

Answer:

Cost of One Journal = $3.99

Cost of One pen = $0.59

Step-by-step explanation:

Let

Cost of One Journal = x

Cost of One pen = y

We can make equation from given statements.

Mr. Bowden purchases 18 journals and 40 pencils for $95.42.

$18x+40y=95.42$

Ms. Jacinto purchases 11 journals and 16 pencils for $53.33.

$11x+16y=53.33$

Now solving these equations to find the value of x

$18x+40y=95.42--eq(1)\\11x+16y=53.33--eq(2)$

Multiply eq(1) with 2 and eq(2) with 5

$36x+80y=190.84\\55x+80y=266.65\\-\:\:\:\:-\:\:\:\;\:\:\:\:\:\:\:-\\---------\\-19x=-75.81\\x=\frac{-75.81}{-19}\\x=3.99\\$

We get the value of x is: x=3.99

Now, putting value of x in equation 1 to find value of y.

$18x+40y=95.42\\18(3.99)+40y=95.42\\71.82+40y=95.42\\40y=95.42-71.82\\40y=23.6\\y=\frac{23.6}{40}\\y= 0.59$

So, we get the value of y: y = 0.59

Now, finding the costs:

Cost of One Journal = x = $3.99

Cost of One pen = y = $0.59

What is the height of an equilateral triangle if the sides are 10

4vir4ik [10]

Answer:

The height of the equilateral triangle is $5\sqrt{3}\ units$

Step-by-step explanation:

we know that

An equilateral triangle has three congruent sides, and three congruent angles that each measure 60 degrees

To find out the height of an equilateral triangle, apply the Pythagoras Theorem in the right triangle ABD

Remember that the height of an equilateral triangle bisects the base.

see the attached figure to better understand the problem

$AB^2=AD^2+BD^2$

substitute the given values

$10^2=5^2+BD^2$

Solve for BD

$100=25+BD^2$

$BD^2=100-25$

$BD^2=75$

$BD=\sqrt{75}\ units$

simplify

$BD=5\sqrt{3}\ units$ `

therefore

The height of the equilateral triangle is $5\sqrt{3}\ units$
