Similarities: same atomic number
Differences: they have a different number of neutrons
You might have made an error the first time you solved for x. I got x = -0.5.
When you have your log base 4, the way you cancel that out is by making 4 the base on both sides, so you get 4^(log4) to reduce to 1, and you're left with:
2x + 3 = 4^(1/2) ... Simplify
2x + 3 = 2
2x = -1
x = -1/2
If you plug that back in, everything checks out. Maybe double check your use of logarithm/exponent properties?
Answer:
h = 4.5 inches
Step-by-step explanation:
The area of a trapezoid is given by
A = 1/2 (b1+b2) h
We know A b1 and b2
20.25 = 1/2 (5+4)*h
20.25 = 9/2 h
Multiply each side by 2/9 to isolate h
2/9 * 20.25 = 2/9 *9/2 h
4.5 =h
Answer:
6y² - 24
Step-by-step explanation:
Expand. Follow FOIL method. FOIL =
First
Outside
Inside
Last.
First, multiply the first term of each parenthesis:
2y * 3y = 6y²
Next, multiply the outside terms from both parenthesis:
2y * 6 = 12y
Then, multiply the inside terms from both parenthesis:
-4 * 3y = -12y
Finally, multiply the last terms of each parenthesis:
-4 * 6 = -24
Combine like terms:
6y² + 12y - 12y - 24
6y² + (12y - 12y) - 24
6y² - 24
6y² - 24 is your answer.
