Answer:

2

Step-by-step explanation:

(x + 6) - (3x - 6)               Remove the brackets.

x + 6 - 3x + 6                 Collect like terms

Difference in points = 12 - 2x

If x = 5 then

Difference in points = 12 - 2*5

Difference in points = 12 - 10

Difference in points = 2

Please help logarithms!

Given:

\log_34\approx 1.262

\log_37\approx 1.771

To find:

The value of \log_3\left(\dfrac{4}{49}\right).

Solution:

We have,

\log_34\approx 1.262

\log_37\approx 1.771

Using properties of log, we get

\log_3\left(\dfrac{4}{49}\right)=\log_34-\log_349      \left[\because \log_a\dfrac{m}{n}=\log_am-\log_an\right]

\log_3\left(\dfrac{4}{49}\right)=\log_34-\log_37^2      

\log_3\left(\dfrac{4}{49}\right)=\log_34-2\log_37          [\log x^n=n\log x]

Substitute \log_34\approx 1.262 and \log_37\approx 1.771.

\log_3\left(\dfrac{4}{49}\right)=1.262-2(1.771)

\log_3\left(\dfrac{4}{49}\right)=1.262-3.542

\log_3\left(\dfrac{4}{49}\right)=-2.28

Therefore, the value of \log_3\left(\dfrac{4}{49}\right) is -2.28.

The ratio of boys to girl in a school is 5:7 if there are 600 students, how many girls are there
larisa86 [58]

Answer:

350 girls

Step-by-step explanation:

So,

The secret to solving problems with ratios is to find the value of one unit.

5:7 = 12 units total

To find one unit, divide the total number of students by the total number of units.

600/12 = a

Simplify

50/1 = a

50 = a

The value of each unit is 50.

Now, multiply the units by the numbers in the ratio.

50(5) = b

250 = boys

50(7) = x

350 = x

There are 350 girls.
