Step-by-step explanation:
log(x+2)-log(x-1)=log2
log(x+2)/(x-1)=log2
=> (x+2)=2(x-1)
=>x+2 =2x-2
=> x=4
Answer:
I think you would multiply 20 × 4 and the answer would be 80 that the scientist counted the number of plants in each 4 sections after 20 days.
Answer:
“1.5”
Step-by-step explanation:
The length and width of the garden will be obtain as follows:
let the length be x ft, the width will be (x+3.5)ft
area of the bed will be:
A=length*width
11.76=x(x+3.5)
11.76=x^2+3.5x
thus
x^2+3.5x-11.76=0
solving this by quadratic formula we get:
x=[-b+/-sqrt(b^2-4ac)]/2a
thus plugging in the values we obtain
x=[-3.5+/-sqrt(3.5^2-4(-11.76*1))]/2
x=[-3.5+/-sqrt59.29]/2
x=[-3.5+/-7.7]/2
x=4.2 or -11.2
thus the length will be x=4.2 ft and the width will be x-3.5=0.7 ft
