3.2 less days than 16 because each 25 is 5 than 16 divide by 5 is 3.2
Answer:
A
Step-by-step explanation:
When multiplying numbers with exponents, the exponents add together. This means that the correct answer is letter A.
Answer:
X = 3, -1; B
Step-by-step explanation:
Use log properties, log 5 on both sides, log 5 of 25 is 2 that times the exponent, so 2*x = 2x, and on the other side, log 5 and base of 5 cancels. So 2x = x^2 -3, which can be solved using factoring:
x^2 -2x -3 = (x-3)(x+1) = 0, x=3,-1
Answer:
B) 42:28
Step-by-step explanation:
First, let's get 12:18 simplified to make it easier to compare:
12:18 -> 4:6 - > <u>2:3</u>
Now let's check it against all the options:
A) 20:30 -> 2:3 and 2:3 = 2:3
Not our answer as it is congruent (equal too, the same as, etc)
B) We can see that the first number is larger than the second number, so without doing too much math we can see this is our answer!
42:28
(it simplifes to 6:4 -> 3:2)
(we do not have to do the following as we already have an answer, but here is the math)
C) 4:6
4:6 ->
2:3 = 2:3
D) 2:3
2:3 = 2:3
