Answer:

(d) f(x) = log₆(x)

Step-by-step explanation:

If we use y in place of f(x), we see that ...

x = 6^y

Taking logs of both sides, we get ...

log(x) = y·log(6)

y = log(x)/log(6)

y = log₆(x) . . . . . . . using the change of base formula

f(x) = log₆(x)

_____

Or you can get there more directly using the relation between logs and exponentials:

$\displaystyle a = b^c\ \leftrightarrow\ c=\log_b(a)$

The volume of a rectangular prism is represented by the function x3 + 11x2 + 20x – 32. The width of the box is x – 1 while the h

Oksi-84 [34.3K]

we know that

the volume of a rectangular prism is equal to

$V=L*W*H$

where

L is the length of the box

W is the width of the box

H is is the height of the box

in this problem we have

$V=x^{3\ }+11x^2+20x-32$

$W=x-1$

$H=x+8$

$L=?$

Find the length of the box

Using a graph tool-------> we will determine the roots of the equation of volume

see the attached figure

the roots are

$x=-8\\x=-4\\ x=1$

$x^{3\ }+11x^2+20x-32=(x+8)*(x+4)*(x-1)$

therefore

the answer is

the length of the box is equal to $(x+4)$

1. First consider the unknown original price as 'x'.

2. Then consider the rate of discount.

3. To find the actual discount, multiply the discount rate by the original amount 'x'.

4. To find the sale price, subtract the actual discount from the original amount 'x' and equate this to given sale price.

c = cost per pound of chocolate chips

w = cost per pound of walnuts.

$\bf \stackrel{\textit{3 lbs of "c"}}{3c}+\stackrel{\textit{5 lbs of "w"}}{5w}~~=~~\stackrel{\textit{costs}}{15} \\\\\\ \stackrel{\textit{12 lbs of "c"}}{12c}+\stackrel{\textit{2 lbs of "w"}}{2w}~~=~~\stackrel{\textit{costs}}{33} \end{cases}\qquad \impliedby \textit{let's use elimination} \\\\[-0.35em] ~\dotfill\\\\ \begin{array}{llccccccl} 3c+5w=15&\times (-4)\implies &-12c&+&-20w&=&-60\\ 12c+2w=33&&12c&+&2w&=&33\\ \cline{3-7}\\ &&0&&-18w&=&-27 \end{array}$

$\bf -18w=-27\implies w=\cfrac{-27}{-18}\implies \blacktriangleright w=\cfrac{3}{2} \blacktriangleleft \\\\\\ \stackrel{\textit{substituting on the 1st equation}}{3c+5\left(\cfrac{3}{2} \right)=15}\implies 3c+\cfrac{15}{2}=15 \implies \stackrel{\textit{multiplying both sides by }\stackrel{LCD}{2}}{2\left( 3c+\cfrac{15}{2} \right)=2(15)} \\\\\\ 6c+15=30\implies 6c=15\implies c=\cfrac{15}{6}\implies \blacktriangleright c=\cfrac{5}{2} \blacktriangleleft$
