The value of x will be equal to 2.477.
<h3>What is a logarithm?</h3>
The logarithm is the inverse function of exponentiation in mathematics. That is, the logarithm of a given number x is the exponent to which another fixed number, the base b, must be raised in order to obtain that number x.
The given expression will be solved as follows;-

Taking Log on both sides.

(x-2) Log5 = Log 8
( x-2) = Log8 / Log 5
(x - 2) = Log 8 - Log 5
(x - 2 ) = Log 3
x-2 = 0.477
x = 2.477
Therefore the value of x will be equal to 2.477.

Answer:
degree of the polynomial is highest power of x in P(x) .

So degree is 5.
Answer:
1. The ratio of milk cartons taken to total milk cartons,
70 - 10 = 60 were taken
73/100 is the ratio of milk cartons taken to total milk cartons
2. The ratio of milk cartons remaining to milk cartons taken
10 / 60 is the ratio of milk cartons remaining to milk cartons take
If the digits are a, b and c, the number n is 100a+10b+c
Here are the equations:
a number equals fifteen times the sum of its digits:
100a+10b+c = 15(a+b+c)
if its digits are reversed, the resulting number exceeds n by 396:
100a+10b+c+396 = 100c+10b+a
the one’s digit is one larger than the sum of the other two:
a+b+1 = c
Solving it gives you a=1, b=3, c=5, the number is 135.
