8 0

$2x^2+4=20\ \ \ \ |subtract\ 4\ from\ both\ sides\\\\2x^2=16\ \ \ \ \ |divide\ both\ sides\ by\ 2\\\\x^2=8\iff x=\pm\sqrt8\\----------------------------\\\sqrt8=\sqrt{4\cdot2}=\sqrt4\cdot\sqrt2=2\cdot\sqrt2=2\sqrt2\ \ \ |use\ \sqrt{a\cdot b}=\sqrt{a}\cdot\sqrt{b}\\-----------------------------\\therefore\ your\ answer\ is\ -2\sqrt2\ and\ 2\sqrt2\to\boxed{a\ and\ c}$

Given logbM=3.2 logbN=-1.5 and logbP=2.4 find the value of logb(m^2N/p)

artcher [175]

The formulas:
$\log_a (xy)=\log_a x + \log_a y \\
\log_a (\frac{x}{y})=\log_a x - \log_a y \\
\log_a (x^n)n \log_a x$

Expand the expression:
$\log_b (\frac{m^2n}{p})=\log_b m^2 + \log_b n - \log_b p= 2 \log_b m+\log_b n - \log_b p$

Plug the values into the expression:
$\log_b m=3.2 \\ \log_b n=-1.5 \\ \log_b p=2.4 \\ \\
2 \log_b m+\log_b n - \log_b p=2 \times 3.2-1.5-2.4=6.4-3.9=2.5 \\ \\
\boxed{\log_b (\frac{m^2n}{p})=2.5}$
