Answer:

Jenny has 4 pencils.

Step-by-step explanation:

Let

Jenny has pencils = x

Arthur has pencils = 5x+6 (Arthur has 6 more than 5 times the number of pencils as Jenny. )

Total pencils = 30

We need to find how many pencils does Jenny have.

We basically can write the equation:

Total pencils = Jenny pencils + Arthur pencils

Putting values and solving to find value of x:

30=x+5x+6\\30=6x+6\\30-6=6x\\24=6x\\=> 6x=24\\x=\frac{24}{6}\\x=4

So, we have value of x = 4

Now, finding number of Jenny pencils:

Jenny has pencils = x = 4

Therefore, Jenny has 4 pencils.

Solve x≤0 and x≥−4 and write the solution in interval notation. If there is no solution, type ∅.
xxTIMURxx [149]

The answer is (-∞.∞).

Draw out a number line. Plot 0 and -4 on the number line.

Shade to the left of x = 0, and have a filled in circle at the endpoint. This is the graph of x≤0

Then graph x ≥−4 by plotting a filled in circle at -4, and shading to the right.

Note how the two graphs overlap to cover the entire real number line

So if we have x≤0  or  x≥−4 then we're basically saying x is any real number. To write this in interval notation, we write (−∞,∞)

This is the interval from negative infinity to positive infinity (or just infinity). We exclude each endpoint because we can't actually reach infinity itself. Infinity is not a number. Infinity is a concept

Side note: if you change the "or" to "and", then the solution to x≤0  and  x≥−4 would be [-4, 0][−4,0] to indicate the interval from x = -4 to x = 0, including both endpoints. This is the region where the two graphs overlap.

Which expression is equivalent to log w (x2-6)4
natka813 [3]
Log w (x^2-6)^4

Using log a b = log a + log b, with a=w and b=(x^-6)^4:
log w (x^2-6)^4 = log w + log (x^2-6)^4

Using in the second term log a^b = b log a, with a=x^2-6 and b=4
log w (x^2-6)^4 = log w + log (x^2-6)^4 =  log w + 4 log (x^2-6)

Then, the answer is:
log w (x^2-6)^4 = log w + 4 log (x^2-6)
