log8 (x(x + 6)) = log8 (5x+12)

Please help me!

Answers

Answer 1
Answer: As log8(x(x+6)) = log8(5x+12) we can raise e by each side this getting x^2 + 6x = 5x + 12
x^2 + x - 12 = 0
(x+4)(x-3)=0
x=3, x=-4
However we can only do logs of positive number and when -4 is substituted into the equation it gives a negative number so the only true solution is x=3

Find the area of a regular octagon with an apothem 9.7 meters long and a side length of 8 meters.

Answers

The area of a regular octagon is:
A = a * P / 2,  where a is an apothem and P is a perimeter.
P = 8 * 8 m = 64 m
A = 9.7 m * 64 m / 2
A = 620.8 / 2 m²
A = 310.4 m²
Answer:
The area of a regular octagon is 310.4 m².

What is the vertex of the quadratic function f(x)=(x-6)(x+2)

Answers

For this case we have the following function:

We rewrite the function making distributive property.

We have then:

To find the vertex of the function, we derive:

We equal zero and clear the value of x:

We evaluate the function for the value of x obtained:

Then, the vertice of the parabola is:

Answer:

the vertex of the quadratic function f(x)=(x-6)(x+2) is:

(x, y) = (2, -16)

(2,-16) should be the correct answer..

Alina is able to swim at a rate of about 2.5 miles per hour. Talia is able to swim at a rate of 1.8 meters per second. Which statement comparing the two swimmers is accurate?

Answers

Answer:

Talia swims about 1.52 miles per hour faster than Alina.

Step-by-step explanation:

Alina is able to swim at a rate of about 2.5 miles per hour.

Talia is able to swim at a rate of 1.8 meters per second.

First we will change meters per second into miles per hour.

1 mile= 1609.34 meters

1 hour = 3600 seconds

So, 1.8 meters per second will be = (1.8*3600)/(1609.34)

= 4.02 miles per hour.

Now, the difference between their rates is = 4.02-2.5=1.52 miles per hour.

Therefore, Talia swims about 1.52 miles per hour faster than Alina.

Talia swims about 1.5 mph faster than Alina

In order to clear out room for new merchandise, James decided to mark down some of the items for sale in his electronics store. He marked down DVD players by 36%, and he marked down stereo tuners by 22%. If DVD players cost $41.60 after the markdown and stereo tuners cost $69.42 after the markdown, which item’s price was reduced by more, and by how many dollars more was it reduced? Round all dollar values to the nearest cent.

Answers

Answer:

a) Which item’s price was reduced by more, and by how many dollars more was it reduced?

The DVD player's price was reduced more by $3.82 than the stereo tuner's price.

b) Round all dollar values to the nearest cent.

Rounding $3.82 dollars to the nearest cents

$1 = 100 cents

$3.82 =

3.82 × 100 cents

= 382 cents

The DVD player's price was reduced by 382 cents more than the stereo tuner's price

Step-by-step explanation:

Lets day the original price of the DVD player was $100

We are told the price was marked down to 36%

36% of $100 = $36

$100 - $36 = $64

We are told the DVD cost $41.60 after the markdown.

Original cost of DVD =

$41.60/$64 × 100 = $65

Lets the original price of the Stereo player was $100

We are told the price was marked down to 22%

22% of $100 = $22

$100 - $22 = $78

We are told the DVD cost $69.42 after the markdown.

Original cost of Stereo =

$69.42/$78 × 100 = $89

DVD = $65 - $41.60 = $23.40 less 

Stereo = $89 - 69.42 = $19.58 less

Difference between the DVD and the Stereo is

$23.40 - $19.58 = $3.82

Therefore,the DVD player's price was reduced by $3.82 more than the stereo tuner's price

Rounding $3.82 dollars to the nearest cents

$1 = 100 cents

$3.82 =

3.82 × 100 cents

= 382 cents

Step-by-step explanation:

The function g(x) = –3x2 – 36x – 60 written in vertex form is g(x) = –3(x + 6)2 + 48. Which is one of the transformations applied to the graph of f(x) = x2 to change it into the graph of g(x) = –3x2 – 36x – 60? The graph of f(x) = x2 is made narrower. The graph of f(x) = x2 is shifted right 6 units. The graph of f(x) = x2 is shifted down 48 units. The graph of f(x) = x2 is reflected over the y-axis.

Answers

The general vertex form is this:
v(x) = a (x-h)2 + k
where (h,k) is the coordinates of the of vertex.
and a indicates the widening or shrinking of the function compared to another parabolic function. If a become bigger, the graph becomes narrower. If a becomes negative, the graph is reflected over the x-axis.

Comparing f(x) = x2 with g(x) = -3(x+6)2 + 48, we have the following transformations:
The graph is reflected over the x-axis
The graph is made narrower.
The graph is shifted 6 units to the left.
The graph is shifted 48 units up.

From the choices we only have:
The graph of f(x) = x2 is made narrower

A. The graph of f(x) = x2 is made narrower.

Problem 1: Conditions for an experimental chemistry reaction require a temperature of 298 K. The temperature in the lab is 55°F. Which of the following must you do to meet the requirements? (°F= 9/5 (K - 273) + 32) A. increase the room temperature by 22°F
B. decrease the room temperature by 12°C
C. decrease the room temperature by 33°F
D. increase the room temperature by 18 K 2. Jim, Jane, Ann, and Bill measure an object’s length, density, mass, and volume, respectively. Which student’s measurement might be in liters?

A. Bill’s

B. Jim’s

C. Jane’s

D. Ann’s

Answers

The correct answer for question 1 is B. To arrive at this answer, use the equation given to convert 55F temperature to Kelvin. The answer will be 285.9K. If you subtract 285 from 298 the answer will be 12. The correct answer for question 2 is A. This is because the unit of volume is liter.

1)     Since 1°F= 9/5 (K - 273) + 32) after the calculus we find 1°F = 255.9 K

The answer is A. increase the room temperature by 22°F, because 55° F + 22° F = 77° and  77° F = 298.1K,

2)     The answer is A: Bill’s. Bill has measured the object’s volume, and the unit of volume is  the liter
