You can convert (1/625) to an exponent, and it would be ideal to have 5 as the base of it because you want your log base to cancel it out. what i usually do in this case is just test out 5^1, 5^2, etc until i find one that matches the number i need. in this case because the number you're trying to work with is a small fraction, you'll want to use NEGATIVE exponents so it'll create a fraction instead of a large whole number:
5^-1 = 1/5
. . . keep trying those. . .
5^-4 = 1/625
so, because they're equal to one another, it'll be waaay easier after you substitute 5^-4 in place of 1/625
x = log₅ 5⁻⁴
log base 5 of 5 simplifies to 1. subbing in the 5^-4 gets rid of the log for you altogether, and your -4 exponent drops down:
x = -4 is your answer
if the exponent dropping down doesn't make sense to you, you can think of it in another way:
x = log₅ 5⁻⁴
expand the expression so that the exponent moves in front of the log function:
x = (-4) log₅ 5
then, still, log base 5 of 5 simplifies to 1, so you're left with:
x = (-4)1 or x = -4
Answer:
0.90=X or 0.89=X
If it's not right, then i'm sorry :)
The answer is 942.05. You get it by multiplying the two numbers together which should give you the product of 942.0483, since the 0 is not the number 5 or more ( which is the rule to round to a higher number) then you go to the hundredths place value which will be underlined for you... 942.0<u>4</u>83 and look to the right and since 8 is higher than 5, you change the four to a five, thus giving you your answer 942.05
Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
x=3 and x=-4 are parallel, vertical lines
:::::
x-y = 3, slope = 1
2x-2y = 10, slope = 1
Parallel lines
Answer: 66 degrees
Step-by-step explanation:
Sum of the angle measures is 180, so:
71 + x + 49 + x + 72 = 180
2x + 192 = 180
2x = -12
x = -6
Meaning the measure of angle A = -6 + 72 = 66 deg.
