Answer:

Explanation:

0.2(6x - 12) = 0.3(6 - 4x)

Simplify both sides of the equation

0.2(6x − 12) = 0.3(6 − 4x)

(0.2)(6x) + (0.2)(−12) = (0.3)(6) + (0.3)(−4x) (Distribute)

1.2x + −2.4 = 1.8 + −1.2x

1.2x − 2.4 = −1.2x + 1.8

Add 1.2x to both sides

1.2x − 2.4 + 1.2x = −1.2x + 1.8 + 1.2x

2.4x − 2.4 = 1.8

Add 2.4 to both sides

2.4x − 2.4 + 2.4 = 1.8 + 2.4

2.4x = 4.2

Divide both sides by 2.4

2.4x / 2.4 = 4.2 / 2.4

x = 1.75

Factor the trinomial. Factor out the GCF first. 5x^2y - 30xy^2 - 35y^3

anzhelika [568]

Answer: $5x^2y - 30xy^2 - 35y^3=5y(x+y)(x-7y)$

Step-by-step explanation:

GCF = Greatest common factor.

For example: 6 is the GCF of 12 and 18.

The given expression: $5x^2y - 30xy^2 - 35y^3$

It can be written as

$5x^2y - (5\times6)x( y\times y) - (5\times7)(y^2\times y)$

Taking out common factor $5y$ , we get

$5y(x^2-6xy-7y^2)\\\\ =5y(x^2+xy-7xy-7y^2)\ \ [\because-6xy=xy-7xy]\\\\=5y(x(x+y)-7y(x+y))\\\\= 5y((x+y)(x-7y))\\\\=5y(x+y)(x-7y)$

Hence, $5x^2y - 30xy^2 - 35y^3=5y(x+y)(x-7y)$

The perimeter of a rectangular campsite is 64 cm and its area is 207 cm. Find the length and the breadth of the rectangle.

AlladinOne [14]

Perimeter Formula:
$2l + 2b = 64$

Area Formula:
$l \times b = 207$
Set perimeter Formula equal to b:
$2l + 2b = 64 \\ 2(l + b) = 64 \\ l+ b = 32 \\ b = 32 - l$
Plug formula for be we just made above into the area Formula:
$(32 - l) \times l = 207$

Solve for L (you'll have to use quadratic formula) then plug that back into the area Equation and solve for b.

Here's a link to where the problem has been explained before (they go into more detail than me).

Answer:

$\displaystyle log_\frac{1}{2}(64)=-6$

Step-by-step explanation:

Properties of Logarithms

We'll recall below the basic properties of logarithms:

$log_b(1) = 0$

Logarithm of the base:

$log_b(b) = 1$

Product rule:

$log_b(xy) = log_b(x) + log_b(y)$

Division rule:

$\displaystyle log_b(\frac{x}{y}) = log_b(x) - log_b(y)$

Power rule:

$log_b(x^n) = n\cdot log_b(x)$

Change of base:

$\displaystyle log_b(x) = \frac{ log_a(x)}{log_a(b)}$

Simplifying logarithms often requires the application of one or more of the above properties.

Simplify

$\displaystyle log_\frac{1}{2}(64)$

Factoring $64=2^6$ .

$\displaystyle log_\frac{1}{2}(64)=\displaystyle log_\frac{1}{2}(2^6)$

Applying the power rule:

$\displaystyle log_\frac{1}{2}(64)=6\cdot log_\frac{1}{2}(2)$

Since

$\displaystyle 2=(1/2)^{-1}$

$\displaystyle log_\frac{1}{2}(64)=6\cdot log_\frac{1}{2}((1/2)^{-1})$

Applying the power rule:

$\displaystyle log_\frac{1}{2}(64)=-6\cdot log_\frac{1}{2}(\frac{1}{2})$

Applying the logarithm of the base:

$\mathbf{\displaystyle log_\frac{1}{2}(64)=-6}$

Triangle ABC has vertices at A(−3, 4), B(4, −2), C(8, 3). The triangle is translated 4 units down and 3 units left. Which rule r

crimeas [40]

Option C: $(x, y) \rightarrow(x-3, y-4) ; (5,-1)$ is the coordinates of C after translation.

Explanation:

The triangle ABC has vertices at A(−3, 4), B(4, −2), C(8, 3).

Also, given that the triangle is translated 4 units down and 3 units left.

We need to determine the coordinates of the vertex C after translation.

The triangle is shifted 4 units down means subtracting 4 units from the y - coordinate of the graph.

Thus, it can be written as $y-4$

Also, the triangle is shifted 3 units left means subtracting 3 units from the x - coordinate of the graph.

Thus, it can be written as $x-3$

Thus, the translation is given by

$(x, y) \rightarrow(x-3, y-4)$

The vertices of C after translation can be determined by

$(8, 3) \rightarrow(8-3, 3-4)\implies (5,-1)$

Thus, $(x, y) \rightarrow(x-3, y-4) ; (5,-1)$ is the coordinates of C after translation.

Hence, Option C is the correct answer.
