Answer:

9 ft

x= square root of 225-144

x= square root of 81

X = 9

What is a counterexample to the conditional statement?
posledela

Answer:

The number 9 is greater than 1 and less than 10, while its factors are 1, 3 and 9, therefore it is a counter example to the statement.

Step-by-step explanation:

There are four odd numbers between 1 and 10, they are: 3, 5, 7 and 9. Let's check the factors for each of them.

For 3:

\frac{3}{1} = 3\\\frac{3}{3} = 1

Therefore 3 is not a counter example to the statement, because it behaves as stated.

For 5:

\frac{5}{1} = 5\\\frac{5}{5} = 1

Therefore 5 is not a counter example to the statement, because it behaves as stated.

For 7:

\frac{7}{1} = 7\\\frac{7}{7} = 1

Therefore 7 is not a counter example to the statement, because it behaves as stated.

For 9:

\frac{9}{1} = 9\\\frac{9}{3} = 3\\\frac{9}{9} = 1\\

Therefore 9 is a counter example to the statement, since it can be divided by 1, 3 and 9.

Answer:

log4x+log4(x-6)=2

place under single log using multiplication rule

log4(x(x-6))=2

convert to exponential form:(base(4) raised to log of number(2)=number(x(x-6)

4^2=x(x-6)

16=x^2-6x

x^2-6x-16=0

(x-8)(x+2)=0

x=8

or

x=-2 (reject, x>0)
