For this problem, let x be the number of children and y for adults. Formulate the equations: 1st equation, x + y = 3,200 and 2nd equation 5x + 9y = 24,000. Re-arrange 1st equation into x = 3200 - y. Then, substitute into 2nd equation, 5(3,200-y) + 9y = 24,000. Then, solve for y. The 16,000 - 5y + 9y = 24000. Final answer is, y = 2000 adults went to watch the movie.

Evaluate ㏒ b 1, b > 0.
IrinaVladis [17]

Answer:

The solution is 1.

Step-by-step explanation:

Logarithm:

Suppose we have a logarithmic equation in the following format:

\log_{a} b = c

It means that:

a_c = b

In this question:

\log_{b} 1 = x

Which means that:

b^x = 1

Every number, elevated to 0, is 1. So

b^0 = 1

Which means that the solution is x = 1
