EXPAND:

Sladkaya [172]

Answer:

$\displaystyle A) 5\log( {x}^{} ) + 2 \log( {y}^{} )$

Step-by-step explanation:

we would like to expand the following logarithmic expression:

$\displaystyle \log( {x}^{5} {y}^{2} )$

remember the multiplication logarithmic indentity given by:

$\displaystyle \rm \log( \alpha \times \beta ) \iff \log( \alpha ) + \log( \beta )$

so our given expression should be

$\displaystyle \log( {x}^{5} ) + \log( {y}^{2} )$

by exponent logarithmic property we acquire:

$\displaystyle 5\log( {x}^{} ) + 2 \log( {y}^{} )$

hence, our answer is A

Given the equation 5x − 4 = –2(3x + 2), solve for the variable. Explain each step and justify your process.

blagie [28]

A.
$5x-4=-2(3x+2) \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ |\hbox{expand the bracket} \\
5x-4=-2 \times 3x-2 \times 2 \\
5x-4=-6x-4 \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ |\hbox{add 6x to both sides} \\
11x-4=-4 \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ |\hbox{add 4 to both sides} \\
11x=0 \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ |\hbox{divide both sides by 11} \\
x=0$

B.
$3(2x-4)=5x-1 \\
6x-12=5x-1 \\
\boxed{11x-12=-1} \Leftarrow \hbox{the first mistake} \\
11x=11 \\
\boxed{x=11} \Leftarrow \hbox{the second mistake}$

Megan's solution isn't correct.
The first mistake: she subtracted 5x from the right-hand side of the equation, but added 5x to the left-hand side.
The second mistake: she divided the right-hand side of the equation by 11, but didn't divide the left-hand side.

The correct solution:
$3(2x-4)=5x-1 \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ |\hbox{expand the bracket} \\
3 \times 2x+3 \times (-4)=5x-1 \\ 6x-12=5x-1 \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ |\hbox{subtract 5x from both sides} \\
x-12=-1 \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ |\hbox{add 12 to both sides} \\
x=11$
