Answer:

2

Step-by-step explanation:

basically logarithms are like reverse exponents

log7, 49 is basically asking 7 to the what gets you 49

because of that its 2 because 7^2 gets you 49

<h3>Answer:    2</h3>

========================================================

Explanation:

Recall that any exponential equation of the form b^x = y can be written into its equivalent log form of \log_{b}(y) = x. Note how in both cases, 'b' is the base. For the exponential equation, x is buried in the exponent and y is free on its own. In the log equation, we have y buried in the log and x is free or isolated on its own.

In your case, we have b = 7 and y = 49. This means \log_{7}(49) = x is the same as 7^x = 49 when converting from log form to exponential form. Then we can rewrite that 49 into 7^2 to get 7^x = 7^2. The bases are both 7, so the exponents must be the same as well. Therefore, x = 2.

-------------------

We could follow a different approach. We could apply the change of base formula. The change of base formula is

\log_{b}(x) = \frac{\log(x)}{\log(b)}

On the left side, we have log base b; however, on the right side, the log can be any base we want. Oftentimes it's handy to go with base 10, though again it doesn't matter the base on the right hand side logs.

So we would then say...

\log_{b}(x) = \frac{\log(x)}{\log(b)}\\\\\log_{7}(49) = \frac{\log(49)}{\log(7)}\\\\\log_{7}(49) = \frac{1.69019608002851}{0.84509804001426}\\\\\log_{7}(49) = 1.99999999999999\\\\

Due to rounding error, we don't land exactly on 2 as expected. However, we get close enough.

Find the perimeter of a rectangle with sides 3x + 6 and -2x -8​
vazorg [7]

Answer:

2x - 4

Step-by-step explanation:

2(3x + 6) = 6x + 12

2(-2x - 8) = -4x -16

6x + 12 - 4x - 16 = 2x - 4

Please answer one question asap <br>A(-4,3) B(2,-1) D(-4,-1) C(2,-5)
Leni [432]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Vertices of the given quadrilateral are A(-4, 3), B(2, -1), C(2, -5) and D(-4, -1)

Since, slope of a line passing through two points (x_1,y_1) and (x_2,y_2) is given by,

Slope = \frac{y_2-y_1}{x_2-x_1}

Slope of AB = \frac{3+1}{-4-2}

                    = -\frac{2}{3}

Slope of AD = \frac{3+1}{-4+4}

                    = Not defined (Parallel to y-axis)

Slope of DC = \frac{-5+1}{2+4}

                     = -\frac{2}{3}

Slope of BC = \frac{-1+5}{2-2}

                   = Not defined (Parallel to y-axis)

Slope of AB = slope of DC = -\frac{2}{3}

Slope of BC = slope of AD = Not defined (parallel to y-axis)

As per property of a parallelogram,

"Opposite sides of a parallelogram are parallel and equal in measure"                  

Therefore, ABCD is a parallelogram.
