Answer:

(x,-y): (2,-2)

Step-by-step explanation:

M=(x+x)/2,(y+y)/2

Given (1,4)=

\frac{3x - 4}{2}

This implies:

1 =  \frac{3x - 4}{2}

3x - 4 = 2 \\ 3x = 2 + 4 \\  \frac{3x }{3}  =  \frac{6}{3}  \\ x = 2

In a similar way,

4 =  \frac{ - 2 + 5y}{2}  \\  - 2 + 5y = 8 \\ 5y = 10 \\ y = 2

The question demanded (x,-y)

Hence(2,-2) is the answer

Which shows the first step in the solution to the<br> equation log₂x + log₂(x - 6) = 4?
iren [92.7K]

log was used calculate big numbers before calculators

log is a re-arranged way to show a number with an exponent

example

log₂ 16 = 4 means 2^4 = 16

logx(Z) = y means x^y=Z

log(x-6)/log(2) + log(x)/log(2) = 4

(log(x-6)+ log(x))/log(2) = 4

(log(x-6)+ log(x)) = 4log(2)

(log(x-6)x) = log(16)

x=8
