Answer:

{x=2,y=2

Step-by-step explanation:

Equation 1:

Multiply both sides of the equation by a coefficient

{ 4(2x-y)=2*4

-5x+4y=-2

Apply Multiplicative Distribution Law

{8x-4y=2*4,-5x+4y=-2

8x-4y+(-5x+4y)=8+(-2)

Remove parentheses

8x-4y-5x+4y=8-2

Cancel one variable

8x-5x=8-2

Combine like terms

3x=8-2

Calculate the sum or difference

3x=6

Divide both sides of the equation by the coefficient of the variable

x=6/3

Calculate the product or quotient

x=2

Equation two:

{-5+4y=-2, x=2

-5*2+4y=-2

Calculate the product or quotient

-10+4y =-2

Reduce the greatest common factor (GCF) on both sides of the equation

-5+2y=-1

Rearrange unknown terms to the left side of the equation

2y=-1+5

Calculate the sum or difference

2y=4

Divide both sides of the equation by the coefficient of the variable

y=4/2

y=2

Given log Subscript 3 Baseline 2 almost-equals 0. 631 and log Subscript 3 Baseline 7 almost-equals 1. 771, what is log Subscript

You can use the properties of logarithm to get to the solution.

The approximate value for given term is given by

$log_3(14) \approx 2.402$

<h3>What is logarithm and some of its useful properties?</h3>

When you raise a number with an exponent, there comes a result.

Lets say you get

$a^b = c$

Then, you can write 'b' in terms of 'a' and 'c' using logarithm as follows

$b = log_a(c)$

Some properties of logarithm are:

$log_a(b) = log_a(c) \implies b = c\\\\\log_a(b) + log_a(c) = log_a(b \times c)\\\\log_a(b) - log_a(c) = log_a(\frac{b}{c})$

<h3>Using the above properties</h3>

$log_3(2) + log_3(7) = log_3(2 \times 7) = log_3(14)\\\\0.631 + 1.771 = log_3(14)\\\\log_3(14) = 2.402$

Thus,

The approximate value for given term is given by

$log_3(14) \approx 2.402$

1. Rewrite the expression. Use an exponent, rather than repeated multiplication. (–4)(–4)

-4^2 is the same as -4*-4

-4*-4=16

-4^2= 16

-4^2 is the exponent.

I hope this helps!
