bazaltina [42]

Answer:

x=7

Step-by-step explanation:

ln(x)+ln(x-3)=ln(4x)

x≥0,x≥3

combining x≥3

ln[x(x-3)]=ln(4x)

x(x-3)=4x

x²-3x-4x=0

x²-7x=0

x(x-7)=0

A paper company needs to ship paper to a large printing business. The paper will be shipped in small boxes and large boxes. Each
Alecsey [184]

Answer:

There were 7 small boxes and 14 large boxes shipped.

Step-by-step explanation:

This problem may be solved by a system of equations:

I am going to say that:

x is the number of small boxes used

y is the number of large boxes used

There were twice as many large boxes shipped as small boxes shipped

This means that y = 2x

Each small box of paper weighs 45 pounds and each large box of paper weighs 80 pounds. The total weight of all boxes was 1435 pounds.

This means that 45x + 80y =1435

So we have to solve the following system:

y=2x

45x + 80y =1435

45x + 80 (2x) = 1435

205x = 1435

x= 1435/205

x=7

y=2x= 2(7) = 14

There were 7 small boxes and 14 large boxes shipped.

The segment from (-1,4) to (2,-2) extended three times then terminal point of segment is
ziro4ka [17]
There are various ways in which you could do this problem.  I'm going to share what I think is one of the faster ways.

Instead of thinking of jumping from (-1,4) TO (2,-2),  Consider the horiz. jump separately and the vertical jump separately.  From -1 to 2 is 3 units.  Three times that is 9 units.  Add 9 to -1, obtaining 8.  That's the horiz. component of the terminal point.

From 4 to -2 is -6 units.  Mult. that by 3.  The result is the vert. comp of the terminal point.
