With any equation you are allowed to take the logarithm of both sides so
5^c=125 now take the logarithm base 5 to both sides giving.
log5(5^c)=log5(125), using the rule log(a^b)=a*log(b) you get
c log5(5)=log5(125), since log5(5)=1
c=log5(125)
Brad average typing rate in words per minute is 21
1260 divided by 60 = 21
(In case you meant 30 minutes)
1260 divided by 30 = 42
Move the decimal 2 places to the left.
Answer:
y = 1/2x
Step-by-step explanation:
x - 2y = -4
x = -4 + 2y
x + 4 = 2y
2y = x + 4
y = 1/2x + 2
y = 1/2x

<h3>Given </h3>
- Equation x² -4x + 1 = k(x - 4) with equal roots
<h3>To find</h3>
<h3>Solution</h3>
<u>The equation in standard form is:</u>
- x² -4x + 1 = k(x - 4)
- x² - 4x - kx + 1 + 4 = 0
- x² - (k + 4)x + 5 = 0
<u>When the quadratic equation has equal roots its discriminant is zero</u>
- D = 0
- b² - 4ac = 0
- (k + 4)² - 4*5 = 0
- (k + 4)² = 20
- k + 4 = ± √20
- k = - 4 ± √20
- or
- k = -4 ± 2√5
