Answer:

(0.2)x = 2.

Taking log on both sides

log (0.2)x = log 2.

x log (0.2) = 0.3010, [since log 2 = 0.3010].

x log (2/10) = 0.3010.

x [log 2 - log 10] = 0.3010.

x [log 2 - 1] = 0.3010,[since log 10=1].

x [0.3010 -1] = 0.3010, [since log 2 = 0.3010].

x[-0.699] = 0.3010.

x = 0.3010/-0.699.

x = -0.4306….

x = -0.4 (nearest tenth)

Answer:

Solution:

(0.2)x = 2.

Taking log on both sides

log (0.2)x = log 2.

x log (0.2) = 0.3010, [since log 2 = 0.3010].

x log (2/10) = 0.3010.

x [log 2 - log 10] = 0.3010.

x [log 2 - 1] = 0.3010,[since log 10=1].

x [0.3010 -1] = 0.3010, [since log 2 = 0.3010].

x[-0.699] = 0.3010.

x = 0.3010/-0.699.

x = -0.4306….

x = -0.4 (nearest tenth)

Answer is option (c) -0.4

If the domain of f(n) = -4n - 3 is (-1, 1/4,4}, what is the range?

ahrayia [7]

Answer:

$Range= \{1,-4,-19\}$

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

$f(n) = -4n - 3$

$n = \{-1,1/4,4\}$ --- domain

Required

Determine the range

To do this, we simply substitute the values of n in the given expression

So, we have:

$n = -1$

$f(-1) = -4 * -1 - 3 =4 - 3 = 1$

$n = 1/4$

$f(-1) = -4 * 1/4 - 3 =-1 - 3 = -4$

$n=4$

$f(-1) = -4 * 4 - 3 =-16 - 3 = -19$

Hence, the range is:

$Range= \{1,-4,-19\}$

Answer:
1. To solve for “b,” you must isolate the variable. The result is 2A/h=b
2. In this question, we must solve for “F.” 9/5(C)+32=F

Multiply the polynomials. (2x2 + 6x + 6)(3x – 2)

gavmur [86]

Answer:

$6x^{3}+16x^{2} +6x-12$

Step-by-step explanation:

To calculate the result of that mutiplication you have to firs evaluate the first term of the second function multipying the whole first function, woudl be like this:

$(3x)(2x^{2}+6x+6)= 6x^{3}+18x^{2} +18x$

Now that you have this, you multiply the second term from the second function to obtain:

$(-2)(2x^{2}+6x+6)= -4x^{2}-12x-12$

Now you just have to add both results:

$6x^{3}+18x^{2} +18x$

+ $-4x^{2}-12x-12$

And the result of the sum would be:

$6x^{3}+16x^{2} +6x-12$
