Artemon [7]3 years ago

<span>The missing pieces strategy is another method to compare two fractions. To tell which number is larger, you ned to see which one is missing less. For example you have ¾ versus 4/5. Each of these fraction needs 1 to complete the whole. You need to subtract the numerator with one to compare them. For ¾ we have ¼ and for 4/5 we have 1/5. You know that if you complete 4/5 you will get 5 and for ¾ you will get 4. You know that 5 is greater than four. Therefore, 4/5 is larger than ¾.</span>

Condensing Logarithmic Expressions In Exercise, use the properties of logarithms to rewrite the expression as the logarithm of a
Dimas [21]

Answer:

\frac{\ln(2x + 5)}{\ln(x - 3)} = 0

Step-by-step explanation:

Data provided in the question:

In(2x + 5) = In(x - 3)

we can rearrange the above equation as

⇒ In(2x + 5) - In(x - 3)  = 0

now,

from the properties of natural log function, we know that

\ln(\frac{A}{B}) = \ln(A)-\ln(B)

therefore,

we get

\frac{\ln(2x + 5)}{\ln(x - 3)} = 0

Hence,

Expression as the logarithm of a single quantity is \frac{\ln(2x + 5)}{\ln(x - 3)} = 0

Plz help GET LOTS OF POINTS!!!!!!
RideAnS [48]

Answer:

slope = 3/2

y intercept = 2

y = 3/2x + 2

Step-by-step explanation:

to find the slope you will you (y₂-y₁) ÷ (x₂-x₁)

(11-5) ÷ (6-2) =

6 ÷ 4 = 3/2

slope = 3/2

to find the y intercept you with use the slope intercept formula (y = mx+ b) and use one point given for x and y

for the example im going to use the point (2,5)

5 = 3/2 (2) + b

5 = 3 + b

subtract three from both sides to find b (y-intercept)

b = 2

Willie and Pedro are reading the same book. Willie read 108 pages in 3 hours, and Pedro read 160 pages in 5 hours. How many more
Sidana [21]

Answer:

4 pages per hour

Step-by-step explanation:

Willie and Pedro are reading the same book. Willie read 108 pages in 3 hours, and Pedro read 160 pages in 5 hours.

We find how many pages per hour each of them read.

For Willie

Willie read 108 pages in 3 hours,

3 hours = 108 pages

1 hour = x

Cross Multiply

3x = 108 pages × 1 hours

x = 108 pages/3

x = 36 pages per hour

For Pedro

Pedro read 160 pages in 5 hours

5 hours = 160 pages

1 hour = x

Cross Multiply

5x = 160 pages × 1 hours

x = 160 pages/5

x = 32 pages per hour.

How many more pages per hour did Willie read?

This is calculated as:

36 pages/hour - 32 pages per hour

= 4 pages per hour

The polynomial 6x²+x–15 has a factor of 2x–3. What is the other factor?
spayn [35]

Step-by-step explanation:

Method 1

Do the factor like

6x

6 \times  ^{2}  +  \times  - 15 \\  = 6 \times  ^{2}  - 9 \times  + 10 \times  - 15 \\  = 3 \times (2 \times  - 3) + 5(2 \times  - 3) \\  = (2 \times  - 3)(3 \times  + 5)

So the other factor is 3x+5

Method 2 We can divise 6x^2+x-15 by 2x-3 and we find the quotient 3x+5

Hope you understand
