Answer:

z = (xy)/(x+y)

Step-by-step explanation:

Taking logarithms base 10, we have ...

x·log(2) = y·log(5) = z·log(10)

z = x·log(2) = y·log(5) . . . . . . . . log(10) = 1

Then z/x = log(2), and z/y = log(5), so ...

z/x +z/y = log(2) +log(5) = log(2·5) = 1

z = 1/(1/x +1/y) = 1/((x+y)/(xy))

z = (xy)/(x+y)

What is the solution to the following equation?

lions [1.4K]

Answer:

D. x = 7

Step-by-step explanation:

NOTE : there should be an equal sign somewhere in the given expression.

suppose the equation is the following:

3(x-4)-5 = x-3

………………………………………………………

3(x - 4) - 5 = x - 3

⇔ 3x - 12 - 5 = x - 3

⇔ 3x - 17 = x - 3

⇔ 3x - 17 + 17= x - 3 + 17

⇔ 3x = x + 14

⇔ 2x = 14

⇔ x = 14/2

⇔ x = 7

Answer:

$y=4x$

Step-by-step explanation:

Equation of the line

A line can be expressed in many forms.

The equation of the line in slope-intercept form is:

y=mx+b

Being m the slope and b the y-intercept.

The point-slope form of the equation of a line is:

y-k=m(x-h)

Where m is the slope and (h,k) is a point through which the line passes.

The equation of a line passing through points (x1,y1) and (x2,y2) can be found as follows:

$\displaystyle y-y_1=\frac{y_2-y_1}{x_2-x_1}(x-x_1)$

We are required to find a line with slope m=4 passing through the origin (0,0).

Using the point-slope form:

y-0=4(x-0)

Simplifying

$\boxed{y=4x}$
