Answer:

7 pieces

Step-by-step explanation:

change 4 5/6 into an irregular fraction. 29/6

divide 29/6 by 2/3. to do this, flip and multiply

29/6 * 3/2 = 87/12 = 7.25 or 7 whole pieces

What is the solution of log4(2x-6)=2
Flauer [41]

Answer: x=11

Step-by-step explanation:

Remembert that, by definition:

log_b(x)=y → b^y=x

Then, you can rewrite log_4(2x-6)=2 in exponential form:

4^2=2x-6

Now you can solve for the variable "x":

Add 6 to both sides of the equation:

4^2+6=2x-6+6

22=2x

And finally you must divide both sides of the equation by 2, then:

\frac{22}{2}=\frac{2x}{2}\\\\x=11

Given a line with a slope of1/2 and a point(6,5) which lies on that find an equation to represent that line
kondor19780726 [428]

Answer:

The equation of the line is given as  2 y - x = 4.

Step-by-step explanation:

Here, the slope of the given line = 1/2

The point  on the line is (x0,y0) = (6,5)

Now, by POINT SLOPE FORMULA:

The equation of line with (x0,y0) and slope m is written as:

(y - y0) = m (x-x0)

So, here the equation of line is given as

( y- 5) = \frac{1}{2} (x-6)\\\implies 2( y-5) = ( x-6)\\or, 2y - 10 = x - 6\\\implies  2y - x = 4

Hence the equation of the line is 2 y - x = 4.

Mazyrski [523]

Hey there! I'm happy to help!

Let's call our hamburgers h and our cheeseburgers c and set up a system of equations to solve.

c+h=512

c=3h

Let's plug this value of c into the first equation to solve for h.

3h+h=512

4h=512

Divide both sides by 4.

h=128

Therefore, 128 hamburgers were sold on Wednesday.

Have a wonderful day! :D
