Answer:

p = 2

Step-by-step explanation:

p + 4/p - 4

multiplying through by p,

p×p + 4/p ×p - 4×p

p² + 4 - 4p = 0

p² - 4p + 4 = 0

factorizing,

p(p - 2) -2(p - 2) =0

(p -2)(p -2) =0

p-2 =0

p=2

Which shows the first step in the solution to the<br> equation log₂x + log₂(x - 6) = 4?

iren [92.7K]

log was used calculate big numbers before calculators

log is a re-arranged way to show a number with an exponent

example

log₂ 16 = 4 means 2^4 = 16

logx(Z) = y means x^y=Z

log(x-6)/log(2) + log(x)/log(2) = 4

(log(x-6)+ log(x))/log(2) = 4

(log(x-6)+ log(x)) = 4log(2)

(log(x-6)x) = log(16)

x=8

At least 4

10% of 12 is 1.2

So 30% is 3.6

And 1% 0.12

So 2% is 0.24

Plus 3.6 onto 0.24 and you get 3.84

10 students of Elena's classmates like to make jewellery.

<u>Step-by-step explanation:</u>

Let total no.of classmates who liked the jewellery = x

Here, in the given problem, given she asked her classmates '20'. So, it clearly shows that total number of students/classmates = 20. Also, in that, 50% said like to make jewellery. Now find 'x' as below,

$x = 50 \% \text { of } 20$
