What is the first step in solving In(x - 1) = In6 - Inx for x?

Mathematics
1 answer:
kobusy [5.1K]2 years ago

Answer:

x=3

Step-by-step explanation:

In(x-1) = In(6) - In(x)

In(x-1) + In(x) = In(6)

In((x-1)x) = In(6)

In(x^2-x) = In(6)

x^2-x=6

x^2-x-6=0

x^2+2x-3x-6=0

x(x+2)-3(x+2)=0

(x-3)(x+2)=0

x=3 because x=-2 need to be cancel out

PLEASEEEE HELPPPPPPPPPPP
andreyandreev [35.5K]

Answer:

The correct option is first graph.

Therefore,

The two points for the line y+5=-2(x-4) ( red color )line are

point A( x₁ , y₁) ≡ ( 0 , 3)  .......Blue color

point B( x₂ , y₂) ≡ (\dfrac{3}{2},0)  ............Green color

The Graph is attached below.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given:

y+5=-2(x-4)

Which can also be written as

y=-2x+8-5\\y=-2x+3     .....Equation of line

Let the points be point A, and point B  

To Find:

point A( x₁ , y₁) ≡ ?

point B( x₂ , y₂) ≡ ?

Solution:

For Drawing a graph we require minimum two points but we will have here three points.

For point A( x₁ , y₁)

Put x = 0 in the given equation we get

y = -2 × 0 +3

y =3

∴ y = 3

∴ point A( x₁ , y₁) ≡ ( 0 , 3)

For point B( x₂ , y₂)

Put y = 0 in the given equation we get

0 = -2x + 3

x=\dfrac{3}{2}

∴ point B( x₂ , y₂)  ≡ (\dfrac{3}{2},0)

Therefore,

The two points for the line y+5=-2(x-4) ( red color )line are

point A( x₁ , y₁) ≡ ( 0 , 3)      .......Blue color

point B( x₂ , y₂) ≡ (\dfrac{3}{2},0)  ............Green color

The Graph is attached below.

The reading speed of second grade students in a large city is approximately normal, with a mean of 90 words per
kari74 [83]

Answer:

The probability that a random sample of 10 second grade students from     the city results in a mean  reading rate of more than 96 words per minute

P(x⁻>96) =0.0359

Step-by-step explanation:

<em>Explanation</em>:-

<em>Given sample size 'n' =10</em>

<em>mean of the Population = 90 words per minute</em>

<em>standard deviation of the Population =10 wpm </em>

<em>we will use formula</em>

<em>                            </em>Z = \frac{x^{-}-mean }{\frac{S.D}{\sqrt{n} } }<em></em>

<em>Let X⁻  = 96</em>

                           Z = \frac{96-90 }{\frac{10}{\sqrt{10} } }

                          Z =  1.898

<em>The probability that a random sample of 10 second grade students from     the city results in a mean  reading rate of more than 96 words per minute</em>

<em></em>P(X^{-}>x^{-} ) = P(Z > z^{-} )<em></em>

<em>                    = 1- P( Z ≤z⁻)</em>

<em>                    = 1- P(Z<1.898)</em>

                   = 1-(0.5 +A(1.898)

                   = 0.5 - A(1.898)

                   = 0.5 -0.4641 (From Normal table)

                  = 0.0359

<u><em>Final answer</em></u>:-

The probability that a random sample of 10 second grade students from  

                = 0.0359

Graph the system of inequalities. Then use your graph to identify the point that represents a solution to the system.
FrozenT [24]

Given:

The system of inequalities:

x>3

y

To find:

The point that represents a solution to the system by using the graph.

Solution:

We have,

x>3

y

The related equations of these inequalities are:

x=3

y=2x-5

The line x=3 is a vertical line that intersect the x-axis at 3.

The table of values for y=2x-5 is:

x         y

0       -5

1        -3

Plot (0,-5) and (1,-3) on a coordinate plan and connect them by a straight line.

The boundary lines are dotted lines because the points on the lines are not included in the solution set.

Check the inequalities for (0,0).

First inequality: 0>3           ( False)

Second inequality: 0

                               0     (False)

Both inequalities are false for (0,0). It means the shaded region of the lines is in the opposite direction of (0,0).

Plot the shaded region and the points (-3, -1), (1, 11), (4, -1), (5, 6) as shown in the below graph.

From the below graph, it is clear that the point (4,-1) is the only point lies in the common shaded region. So, (4,-1) represents a solution to the system.

Therefore, the correct option is C.
