I don't understand Can you type it again?
Your ratio is 4:1 because it takes 4 cups of water for every cup of sugar.
Answer:
x = - 5, x = 2
Step-by-step explanation:
Using the rules of logarithms
log x - log y = log (
)
x = n ⇔ x = 
note that log x =
x
Given
log (x² + 3x) - log10 = 0, then
log(
) = 0, thus
=
= 1 ( multiply both sides by 10 )
x² + 3x = 10 ( subtract 10 from both sides )
x² + 3x - 10 = 0 ← in standard form
(x + 5)(x - 2) = 0 ← in factored form
Equate each factor to zero and solve for x
x + 5 = 0 ⇒ x = - 5
x - 2 = 0 ⇒ x = 2
Solution is x = - 5, x = 2
Answer:
45.29 miles per hour
Step-by-step explanation:
Speed is the distance over time. To find the average rate of speed for a trip, we simply need to take the total distance divided by the total time.
Avg. Speed = (188 miles + 197 miles) / (4 hours + 4.5 hours)
Avg. Speed = 45.29 miles per hour
Hence the average rate of speed for the trip was 45.29 miles per hour.
Cheers.
