92.4 is 150% of what number?
Ad libitum [116K]
1. We assume, that the number 92.4 is 100% - because it's the output value of the task. 
<span>2. We assume, that x is the value we are looking for. </span>
<span>3. If 92.4 is 100%, so we can write it down as 92.4=100%. </span>
<span>4. We know, that x is 150% of the output value, so we can write it down as x=150%. </span>
5. Now we have two simple equations:
1) 92.4=100%
2) x=150%
where left sides of both of them have the same units, and both right sides have the same units, so we can do something like that:
92.4/x=100%/150%
6. Now we just have to solve the simple equation, and we will get the solution we are looking for.

7. Solution for what is 150% of 92.4

92.4/x=100/150
<span>(92.4/x)*x=(100/150)*x       - </span>we multiply both sides of the equation by x
<span>92.4=0.666666666667*x       - </span>we divide both sides of the equation by (0.666666666667) to get x
<span>92.4/0.666666666667=x </span>
<span>138.6=x </span>
x=138.6

<span>now we have: </span>
<span>150% of 92.4=138.6</span>

​write the logarithm as a sum or difference of logarithms. simplify each term as much as possible. log4(6ab)
Dominik [7]

The logarithm written as a sum of logarithm and simplified as much as possible is \frac{1}{2} +log_{4 }3 +  log_{4 }a + log_{4 }b

<h3>Simplifying Logarithms</h3>

From the question, we are to write the given logarithm expression as a sum or difference of logarithms

The given logarithm is

log_{4 }6ab

This can be written as

log_{4 }6 \times a \times b

From one of the rules of logarithm, we have that

log_{x }yz= log_{x }y + log_{x }z

Thus,

log_{4 }6 \times a \times b  becomes

log_{4 }6 + log_{4 }a + log_{4 }b

This can be further simplified into

log_{4 }3 \times 2 + log_{4 }a + log_{4 }b

log_{4 }3 + log_{4 }2 + log_{4 }a + log_{4 }b

If desired, this can be further simplified into

log_{4 }3 + log_{2^{2}  }2 + log_{4 }a + log_{4 }b

log_{4 }3 + \frac{1}{2} log_{2}2 + log_{4 }a + log_{4 }b

log_{4 }3 + \frac{1}{2} (1)+ log_{4 }a + log_{4 }b

\frac{1}{2} +log_{4 }3 +  log_{4 }a + log_{4 }b

Hence, the logarithm written as a sum of logarithm and simplified as much as possible is \frac{1}{2} +log_{4 }3 +  log_{4 }a + log_{4 }b
