Answer:
y = 4 or y = 6
Step-by-step explanation:
2log4y - log4 (5y - 12) = 1/2
2log_4(y) - log_4(5y-12) = log_4(2) apply law of logarithms
log_4(y^2) + log_4(1/(5y-12)) = log_4(/2) apply law of logarithms
log_4(y^2/(5y-12)) = log_4(2) remove logarithm
y^2/(5y-12) = 2 cross multiply
y^2 = 10y-24 rearrange and factor
y^2 - 10y + 24 = 0
(y-4)(y-6) = 0
y= 4 or y=6
Answer:
56
Step-by-step explanation:
By tracing the lines on the tree diagram, we see the probability of both being red is 0.5 × 0.6 = 0.3.
The probability of both being blue is 0.5 × 0.4 = 0.2.
So we would expect to get both blue 2/3 of the times we get both red.
X = 2/3 (84)
X = 56
