Shaun needs to make mortar for brick-laying. It is made in the ratio 7:3 of sand to cement.

1 answer:

7 0

Sand to cement
7:3

210:x

ask yourself what number is needed to multiply by 7 to get 210 ( so you'd divide 210 by 7 which is 30). Multiply the other side by thirty as well to get the value of x

3*30 which is 90

What is the solution of<br><br>log6x + log6(x + 5) = 2?

exis [7]

Answer:

Doesn't have solution.

Step-by-step explanation:

x ≠ 0; x > 0 (I)

x - 5 > 0

x > 5 (II)

$log_6 x + log_6 (x + 5) = 2 \\\ log_6 [x(x + 5)] = 2 \\\ x^2 + 5x = 36 \\\ x^2 + 5x - 36 = 0 \\\ \Delta = 5^2 - 4.1.(- 36) \\\ \Delta = 169 \\\ \sqrt{\Delta} = \pm 13 \\\ x' = \frac{- 5 + 13}{2} \\\\ x' = 4 \\\ x" = \frac{- 5 - 13}{2} \\\\ x" = - 9$

Then, this expression doesn't have solution.

I Hope I've helped you.
