Answer:

x = 4

which agrees with the third listed answer among the given options

Step-by-step explanation:

We can re-write the logarithmic equation using the properties of logarithms:

2\,log(x)=log(8)+log(x-2)\\log(x^2)=log(8*(x-2))\\log(x^2)=log(8x-16)

Therefore, the arguments of the log functions must also be equal (and we can solve for "x" by noticing that this expression is the perfect square of a binomial:

x^2=8x-16\\x^2-8x+16=0\\(x-4)^2=0

and for this equation to verify, x must be 4

Answer:

The value of x is 4.

Step-by-step explanation:

You have to use Logarithm Laws :

log( {a}^{n} ) \: ⇒ \: n log(a)

log(a)  +  log(b) \: ⇒ \: log(a \times b)

So for this question :

2 log(x)  \: ⇒ \:  log( {x}^{2} )

log(8)  +  log(x - 2) \: ⇒ \:  log(8(x - 2))

log( {x}^{2} )  =  log(8x - 16)

Next you have to cut out the log :

{x}^{2}  = 8x - 16

Then, you have to make the equation equals 0 :

{x}^{2}  - 8x + 16 = 0

Lastly, you have to solve it :

{x}^{2}  - 4x - 4x + 16 = 0

x(x - 4) - 4(x - 4) = 0

(x - 4)(x - 4) = 0

x = 4

if the diameter of a nickel is 0.835 in and the width of each nickel is 0.077 in what is the approximate surface area of the 2$
Dima020 [189]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

The roll of nickels forms a cylinder

cylinder area includes the sides and the round areas

round areas  = pi r^2   there is two   so    2 pi r^2

                                                                    = 2 pi (.835/2)^2

and the side area  pi x d x h

                               pi x .835 ( .077 x 40)     (there are 40 nickels in $ 2

Add the areas to get the total ......
