1 - 1/2 .5
Answer: option 1.

x f(x)
4 log (4) 4 = 1 ... because 4^1 = 4
16 log(4) 16 = 2 .... because 4^2 = 16
64 log (4) 64 = 3 .... because 4^3 = 64
Answer: Area = 6m²
Smaller number = 16
Hours = 9.6 h
Step-by-step explanation:
A rectangle is 5 meters longer than its width. If the length is shortened by 2 meters and width is increased by 1 meter, the area remains the same. Find the area of the rectangle.
1) w = x m 2) w = x + 1 m
l = x + 5 m l = x + 5 - 2 = x + 3 m
A₁ = A₂
A = w*l
A₁ = x(x+5) = x² + 5x
A₂ = (x+1)(x+2) = x² + x + 2x + 2 = x² + 3x + 2
A₁ = A₂
x² + 5x = x² + 3x + 2
5x - 3x = 2
2x = 2
x = 1
A₁ = x(x+5) = 1.6 = 6 m²
The ratio of two numbers is 2:5. If the larger number is 40, what is the smaller number.
<u> 2 </u> = <u> x </u>
5 40
5x = 80
x = 80/5 = 16
Sixteen construction workers can finish cementing a floor of a building in 3 hours. On a certain day, only 5 construction workers are available for the job. How long will it take the 5 construction workers to do the cementing job?
workers hours
16 3
5 x
↑ ↓ inversely proportional
<u> 5 </u> = <u> 3 </u>
16 x
5x = 16*3
5x = 48
x = 48/5
x = 9.6 h
Answer: x=10 7/8
Step-by-step explanation:
Subtract 3/4 from both sides. Multiply both sides by 3. Divide both sides by 2 (basically just isolate x on one side of the equal sign).
Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:
The given expression is

First, we need to factor each denominator

So, the least common factor (LCF) is
, because they are the factors that repeats.
Now, we diviide the LCF by each denominator, to then multiply it by each numerator.

Then, we factor the numerator, to do so, we need to find two numbers which product is 10 and which sum is 7.

Therefore, the expression is equivalent to
