p = total # of pages
2/5p + 32 = 310 (She read 2/5 of the book, read an addition of 32 pages, and she read a total of 310 pages.) Subtract 32 on both sides
2/5p = 278 (multiply each side by 5/2 to get p by itself)
p = 695
The opposite of a nonzero integer is the inverse of it. So to get the opposite, change the sign.
For example:
What's the opposite of 3?
-3.
I hope that I explained well :)
Use the change-of-basis identity,

to write

Use the product-to-sum identity,

to write

Redistribute the factors on the left side as

and simplify to

Now expand the right side:

Simplify and rewrite using the logarithm properties mentioned earlier.





(C)
I believe its a 1/8 chance.
Is that the rest of the question ?
