Solve the following equation algebraically: x^2=20

Zielflug [23.3K]

Answer:

x = ± 2 $\sqrt{5}$

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

x² = 20 ( take the square root of both sides )

x = ± $\sqrt{20}$ = ± $\sqrt{4(5)}$ = ± 2 $\sqrt{5}$

Use the change-of-basis identity,

$\log_x(y) = \dfrac{\ln(y)}{\ln(x)}$

to write

$xyz = \log_a(bc) \log_b(ac) \log_c(ab) = \dfrac{\ln(bc) \ln(ac) \ln(ab)}{\ln(a) \ln(b) \ln(c)}$

Use the product-to-sum identity,

$\log_x(yz) = \log_x(y) + \log_x(z)$

to write

$xyz = \dfrac{(\ln(b) + \ln(c)) (\ln(a) + \ln(c)) (\ln(a) + \ln(b))}{\ln(a) \ln(b) \ln(c)}$

Redistribute the factors on the left side as

$xyz = \dfrac{\ln(b) + \ln(c)}{\ln(b)} \times \dfrac{\ln(a) + \ln(c)}{\ln(c)} \times \dfrac{\ln(a) + \ln(b)}{\ln(a)}$

and simplify to

$xyz = \left(1 + \dfrac{\ln(c)}{\ln(b)}\right) \left(1 + \dfrac{\ln(a)}{\ln(c)}\right) \left(1 + \dfrac{\ln(b)}{\ln(a)}\right)$

Now expand the right side:

$xyz = 1 + \dfrac{\ln(c)}{\ln(b)} + \dfrac{\ln(a)}{\ln(c)} + \dfrac{\ln(b)}{\ln(a)} \\\\ ~~~~~~~~~~~~+ \dfrac{\ln(c)\ln(a)}{\ln(b)\ln(c)} + \dfrac{\ln(c)\ln(b)}{\ln(b)\ln(a)} + \dfrac{\ln(a)\ln(b)}{\ln(c)\ln(a)} \\\\ ~~~~~~~~~~~~ + \dfrac{\ln(c)\ln(a)\ln(b)}{\ln(b)\ln(c)\ln(a)}$

Simplify and rewrite using the logarithm properties mentioned earlier.

$xyz = 1 + \dfrac{\ln(c)}{\ln(b)} + \dfrac{\ln(a)}{\ln(c)} + \dfrac{\ln(b)}{\ln(a)} + \dfrac{\ln(a)}{\ln(b)} + \dfrac{\ln(c)}{\ln(a)} + \dfrac{\ln(b)}{\ln(c)} + 1$

$xyz = 2 + \dfrac{\ln(c)+\ln(a)}{\ln(b)} + \dfrac{\ln(a)+\ln(b)}{\ln(c)} + \dfrac{\ln(b)+\ln(c)}{\ln(a)}$

$xyz = 2 + \dfrac{\ln(ac)}{\ln(b)} + \dfrac{\ln(ab)}{\ln(c)} + \dfrac{\ln(bc)}{\ln(a)}$

$xyz = 2 + \log_b(ac) + \log_c(ab) + \log_a(bc)$

$\implies \boxed{xyz = x + y + z + 2}$

Jason ran 5/7 of the distance around the school track. Sara ran 4/5 of Jason's distance. What fraction of the total distance aro

masha68 [24]

Jason: 5/7
Sara: 4/5

Think of it this way: if the total track is a mile, and Jason runs 5/7 of it, he has run 5/7 of a mile. Then Sara runs 4/5 OF 5/7, with "of" meaning "times," so she runs 4/5 x 5/7, which gives you 20/35, which simplifies to 4/7. You can also think of Sara's distance as 80 percent of Jason's. If she runs "80 percent of the sevenths that Jason ran," that means she ran 4 out of his 5 sevenths.
