Use logarithms to solve the equation 5^x = 3^(2x-1), giving your answer correct to 3 significant figures.

Answers

Answer 1

[tex]5^x = 3^{2x-1}\\\\\implies \ln(5^x) = \ln\left(3^{2x-1}\right)\\\\\implies x \ln 5 = (2x-1) \ln 3\\\\\implies x \ln 5 = 2x \ln 3 - \ln 3\\\\\implies 2x \ln 3 - x \ln 5 = \ln 3\\\\\implies x(2 \ln3 - \ln 5) = \ln 3\\\\\implies x =\dfrac{\ln 3}{2 \ln 3 - \ln 5} = 1.87[/tex]

Answer 2

The solution to the equation is x ≈ 1.864 (correct to 3 significant figures).

To solve the equation 5ˣ = 3²ˣ⁻¹ using logarithms, we'll take the logarithm of both sides to bring down the exponent. Since the bases are different (5 and 3), we can use either the natural logarithm (ln) or the common logarithm (log base 10). Let's use the natural logarithm (ln):

Take the natural logarithm (ln) of both sides:

ln(5^x) = ln(3²ˣ⁻¹)

Apply the logarithm rule: ln(a^b) = b * ln(a):

x * ln(5) = (2x - 1) * ln(3)

Expand the equation:

x * ln(5) = 2x * ln(3) - ln(3)

Move the terms with "x" to one side of the equation:

x * ln(5) - 2x * ln(3) = -ln(3)

Factor out "x" from the left side:

x * (ln(5) - 2 * ln(3)) = -ln(3)

Solve for "x":

x = -ln(3) / (ln(5) - 2 * ln(3))

Now, we can calculate the value of "x" using a calculator:

ln(3) ≈ 1.099

ln(5) ≈ 1.609

x ≈ -1.099 / (1.609 - 2 * 1.099) ≈ -1.099 / (1.609 - 2.198) ≈ -1.099 / (-0.589) ≈ 1.864

Therefore, the solution to the equation is x ≈ 1.864 (correct to 3 significant figures).

Lisa has $200 in her savings account. This is 40% of the money she needs to take a weekend trip. What is the total cost of the trip she wants to take?

Answers

The total cost of the trip Lisa wants to take over the weekend is $500.

Let the total cost of the trip be T.

Given the following data:

Savings account balance = $200Percent of trip expenses = 40%

To determine the total cost of the trip Lisa wants to take over the weekend:

Since the percentage of the money in Lisa's savings account is equal to forty percent (40%) of what is required for the total cost of the trip. Thus, we would multiply the total cost of her trip by 40% and equate it to $200.

Total cost of her trip:

[tex]\frac{40}{100} \times T = 200\\\\0.4T=200\\\\T=\frac{200}{0.4}[/tex]

Total cost, T = $500.

Let f(x) = x^6( x − 8 )^7 / (x^2 +2)^2
Use logarithmic differentiation to determine the derivative.
f ' (x) =________

Answers

If

f(x) = x⁶ (x - 8)⁷ / (x² + 2)²

then taking the logarithm of both sides lets us expand the right side as

ln(f(x)) = ln(x⁶ (x - 8)⁷ / (x² + 2)²)

ln(f(x)) = ln(x⁶) + ln((x - 8)⁷) - ln((x² + 2)²)

using the property ln(ab) = ln(a) + ln(b).

We can also use the property ln(aⁿ) = n ln(a), so that

ln(f(x)) = 6 ln(x) + 7 ln(x - 8) - 2 ln(x² + 2)

Then differentiating both sides using the chain rule gives

f'(x)/f(x) = 6 x'/x + 7 (x - 8)'/(x - 8) - 2 (x² + 2)'/(x² + 2)

f'(x)/f(x) = 6 (1)/x + 7 (1)/(x - 8) - 2 (2x)/(x² + 2)

f'(x)/f(x) = 6/x + 7/(x - 8) - 4x/(x² + 2)

Solve for f'(x) :

f'(x) = (6/x + 7/(x - 8) - 4x/(x² + 2)) f(x)

and replace f(x) with the given function :

f'(x) = (6/x + 7/(x - 8) - 4x/(x² + 2)) • x⁶ (x - 8)⁷ / (x² + 2)²

We can expand the product :

f'(x) = 6 x⁵ (x - 8)⁷ / (x² + 2)²+ 7x⁶ (x - 8)⁶ / (x² + 2)² - 4x⁷ (x - 8)⁷ / (x² + 2)³

then simplify by factoring :

f'(x) = x⁵ (x - 8)⁶/(x² + 2)³  • (6 (x - 8) (x² + 2) + 7x (x² + 2) - 4x² (x - 8))

Simplify the rest :

f'(x) = x⁵ (x - 8)⁶ (9x³ - 16x² + 26x - 96)/(x² + 2)³

Given the function f(x) = 2(3)x, Section A is from x = 0 to x = 1 and Section B is from x = 2 to x = 3.

Part A: Find the average rate of change of each section. (4 points)
Part B: How many times greater is the average rate of change of Section B than Section A? Explain why one rate of change is greater than the other. (6 points)

(10 points)

Answers

Part A:

To find the average rate of change, let us first write out the equation to find it.

Δy/Δx = average rate of change.  

Finding average rate of change for Section A

Δy = f(1) - f(0) = 2(3)^1 - 2(3)^0 = 6 - 1 = 5

Δx = 1- 0 = 1

Plug the numbers in: Δy/Δx = 5/1 = 5

Therefore, the average rate of change for Section A is 5.  

Finding average rate of change for Section B

Δy = f(3) - f(2) = 2(3)^3 - 2(3)^2 = 2(27) - 2(9) = 54 - 18 = 36

Δx = 3 - 2 = 1

Plug the numbers in: Δy/Δx = 36/1 = 36

Therefore, the average rate of change for Section B is 36.  

Part B:

(a) How many times greater is the average rate of change of Section B than Section A?

If Section B is on the interval [2,3] and Section A is on the interval [0,1].  

For the function f(x) = 2(3)^x, the average rate of change of Section B is 7.2 times greater than the average rate of change of Section A.  

(b) Explain why one rate of change is greater than the other.  

Since f(x) = 2(3)^x is an exponential function the y values do not increase linearly, instead increase exponentially. In an interval with smaller x values the rate of change is lower than an interval with larger x values.

Help help help math math

Answers

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

You already have the slope. It is + 1 as in y = (+1)x when you have been given

y = x + b

That means all you need do is subtract to find out what  b is

y =   x + b

x = 5

y = 11

Difference is 11 - 5 = 6

Try it a couple more times.

x = 10

y = 16

y = x + b

16 = 10 + b        Subtract 10

16 - 10 = b

b = 6 just as it did before.

y = x + b

x = 20

y = 26

26 = 20 + b      Subtract 20

26-20 = b

b = 6

So ? = 6
