Answer:
x = -2
Step-by-step explanation:
3(-2 - 3x) = -9x - 4 (Given)
3(-2) + 3(-3x) = -9x - 4 (Distributive Property of Equality)
-6 + 9x = -9x - 4 (Simplify)
-6 + 4 -9x= -9x - 4 + 4 (Addition Property of Equality)
-2 + 9x = -9x (Simplify)
-2 + (Division Property of Equality)
-2 = x (Simplify)
x = -2 (Symmetric Property of Equality)
Answer: 1. 3801
Step-by-step explanation:
Log 24 = Log(8x3)
From the laws of Logarithm
Log ( a xb) = Log a + Log b
so, Log (8x3) = Log8 + Log 3
Also Log 8 can be written as Log since
is still 8 , so the expression becomes
Log + Log 3
⇒ 3 Log 2 + Log 3
since the value of Log 2 and Log 3 has been given , substitute into the expression , we have
3 (0.3010) + 0.4771
= 0.903 + 0.4771
= 1.3801
