The potential solutions of log_4x+log_4(x+6)=2 are 2 and -8.

<h3>Properties of Logarithms</h3>

From the properties of logarithms, you can rewrite logarithmic expressions.

The main properties are:

  • Product Rule for Logarithms - log_{b}(a*c)=log_{b}a+log_{b}c
  • Quotient Rule for Logarithms - log_{b}(\frac{a}{c} )=log_{b}a-log_{b}c
  • Power Rule for Logarithms - log_{b}(a^c)=c*log_{b}a

The exercise asks the potential solutions for  log_4x+log_4(x+6)=2. In this expression you can apply the Product Rule for Logarithms.

                                  log_4x+log_4(x+6)=2\\ \\ x*(x+6)=4^2\\ \\ x^2+6x=16\\ \\ x^2+6x-16=0

Now you should solve the quadratic equation.

 

 Δ=b^2-4ac=36-4*1*(-16)=36+64=100. Thus, x will be x_{1,\:2}=\frac{-6\pm \:\sqrt{100} }{2\cdot \:1}=\frac{-6\pm \:10}{2}. Then:

x_1=\frac{-6+10}{2}=\frac{4}{2} =2\\ \\ \:x_2=\frac{-6-10}{2}=\frac{-16}{2} =-8

The potential solutions  are 2 and -8.

Write an equation that represents the distance d and Miles traveled by the monarch butterfly and t days
loris [4]

Complete question :

When the monarch butterfly is migrating to the south, it has an average speed of 80 miles per day. Write an equation that shows the realtionship between the number of days (t) and the distance (in miles) it has traveled (d)

Answer:

d = 80t

Step-by-step explanation:

Given :

Average speed = 80 miles per hour

Distance traveled (in miles) = d

Number of days = t

Equation which shows the Relationship between Number of days and distance traveled :

Recall :

Speed = distance / time

Speed = 80 ; distance = d ; time = t

80 = d/t

80 * t = d

d = 80t

9a-18b+21c apply distributive property to factor out gcf of all three terms
horsena [70]
The GCF of the three terms (9a, -18b and 21c) is 3

Rewrite each of the terms so 3 is a factor
9a = 3*3a
-18b = -3*6b
21c = 3*7c

So we can say...
9a - 18b + 21c = 3*3a - 3*6b + 3*7c
9a - 18b + 21c = 3(3a - 6b + 7c)

Answer: 3(3a - 6b + 7c)

If you distribute outer 3 to each of the inner terms and multiply, you'll get the original expression again.
