2p-3=12p = 20
the answer is
p = 18
Well this type of problems isn't exactly my strong suit, but I tried to come up with a solution, so my reasoning is as follows: we know that 1km is 0.621 miles, and the problem incites us to find how much time 1 mile takes, so we need to find how many kms are in a mile:
1km ---> 0.621 miles
<=> 1/0.621=1.610 km ---> 0.621/0.621 = 1 mile
so 1 mile = 1.610 km
Next we need to know how much time 1.610 km takes to run across
We know that:
10 km take 55 mins
and 1.610 = 10/6.211
so we need to divide 55 by the same value
55/6.211 = 8.855 mins
So 10 km ---> 55 mins
1.610 = 10/6.211 km ---> 55/6.211 = 8.855 mins
I hope I didn't mess up.
Hope I helped ^^
Answer: x log[5] = log[125]
Explanation:
The original expression is 125 = 5^x
To express that as a logarithmic equation take logarithms on both sides:
log [125] = [log 5^x]
By the properties of the logartims of powers that is:
log [125] = x log[5]
And that is the equation required.
If you want to solve it, you can do 125 = 5^2, and apply the same property (logarithm of a power) to the left side, yielding to:
log [5^2 ]= x log[5]
=> 2 log[5] = x log[5]
=> 2 = x
yes he is. because the the 5/5 is a whole whilw on the other hand 9/10 is smaller becasue there is some missing from it.
