Answer: 10
No matter if you simplify the square roots or not before multiplying, you get 10.
Let the weight be d
x*5/8=15
5x=15*8
5x=120
x=120/5
x=24
<span>log(x-3)+log(x) = 2 + log(x+2)
---------------------------
log[(x-3)x] - log(x+2) = 2
-----
log[(x^2-3x)/(x+2)] = 2
----
(x^2-3x)/(x+2) = 2^2
-------
x^2-3x = 4x+8
x^2 - 7x - 8 = 0
Factor:
(x-8)(x+1) = 0
Positive solution:
x = 8</span>
Answer:
y= -3x-6
Step-by-step explanation:
I believe this is correct
First turn 1/2 to 2/4 so you have a common denominator.
Next turn the mixed numbers into improper fractions:
11 3/4 --> 47/4 and 8 2/4 --> 34/4
Subtract:
47/4 - 34/4 = 13/4
Divide:
13/4 = 3.25
3.25/2 --> 1.625 or 1 5/8
Therefore, he will have to place it 1 5/8 feet from each side
Hope this helps!
