Answer

$\textup{Reduce the fraction by subtracting exponents, then halve all exponents to find the square root.}$

$\sqrt{\frac{x^{4}y^{11}z^{5}}{x^{2}y^{5}z^{7}}} =\sqrt{\frac{x^{2}y^{6}}{z^{2}}}::=\frac{xy^{3}}{z}$

Question

Solve for : $\log_{2}\left ( x+4 \right ) + \log_{2}\left ( x+5 \right ) = \log_{2} 6$

Tap to reveal answer

Answer

$\log_{2}\left ( x+4 \right ) + \log_{2}\left ( x+5 \right ) = \log_{2} 6$

$\log_{2} \left[ \left ( x+4 \right )\left ( x+5 \right ) \right ] = \log_{2} 6$

$2^{ \log_{2} \left[ \left ( x+4 \right )\left ( x+5 \right ) \right ] }=2^{ \log_{2} 6}$

FOIL: $x^{2} + 4x + 5x + 4 \cdot 5 = 6$

$x^{2} + 9x + 20 = 6$

$x^{2} + 9x + 20 - 6 = 6- 6$

$x^{2} + 9x + 14 = 0$

$x + 2 = 0 \textrm{ or }x + 7 = 0$

$x = -2 \textrm{ or } x = -7$

These are our possible solutions. However, we need to test them.

:

$\log_{2}\left ( x+4 \right ) + \log_{2}\left ( x+5 \right ) = \log_{2} 6$

$\log_{2}\left ( -2+4 \right ) + \log_{2}\left ( -2+5 \right ) = \log_{2} 6$

$\log_{2}2 + \log_{2}3 = \log_{2} 6$

$\log_{2}2 = 1$

$\log_{2}3 = \frac{\ln 3}{\ln 2} \approx \frac{1.10}{0.69} \approx 1.59$

$\log_{2}6 = \frac{\ln 6}{\ln 2} \approx \frac{1.79}{0.69} \approx 2.59$

The equation becomes . This is true, so is a solution.

:

$\log_{2}\left ( x+4 \right ) + \log_{2}\left ( x+5 \right ) = \log_{2} 6$

$\log_{2}\left ( -7+4 \right ) + \log_{2}\left ( -7+5 \right ) = \log_{2} 6$

$\log_{2}\left (-3 \right ) + \log_{2}\left (-2 \right ) = \log_{2} 6$

However, negative numbers do not have logarithms, so this equation is meaningless. is not a solution, and is the one and only solution. Since this is not one of our choices, the correct response is "The correct solution set is not included among the other choices."

Question

You are given that $\log_{10} x = A$ and $\log_{10} y = B$ .

Which of the following is equal to $100^{2A-B}$ ?

Tap to reveal answer

Answer

Since $\log_{10} x = A$ and $\log_{10} y = B$ , it follows that $10^{A} = x$ and $10^{B} = y$

$100^{2A-B} = \left( 10^{2} \right ) ^{2A-B} =10^{2 (2A-B)} =10^{4A-2B}=\frac{10^{4A}}{10^{2B}} =\frac{\left ( 10^{A}\right )^4}{\left (10^{B}\right )^2}=\frac{x^4}{y^2}$

Answer

$\log_{2}\left ( x+4 \right ) + \log_{2}\left ( x+5 \right ) = \log_{2} 6$

$\log_{2} \left[ \left ( x+4 \right )\left ( x+5 \right ) \right ] = \log_{2} 6$

$2^{ \log_{2} \left[ \left ( x+4 \right )\left ( x+5 \right ) \right ] }=2^{ \log_{2} 6}$

FOIL: $x^{2} + 4x + 5x + 4 \cdot 5 = 6$

$x^{2} + 9x + 20 = 6$

$x^{2} + 9x + 20 - 6 = 6- 6$

$x^{2} + 9x + 14 = 0$

$x + 2 = 0 \textrm{ or }x + 7 = 0$

$x = -2 \textrm{ or } x = -7$

These are our possible solutions. However, we need to test them.

:

$\log_{2}\left ( x+4 \right ) + \log_{2}\left ( x+5 \right ) = \log_{2} 6$

$\log_{2}\left ( -2+4 \right ) + \log_{2}\left ( -2+5 \right ) = \log_{2} 6$

$\log_{2}2 + \log_{2}3 = \log_{2} 6$

$\log_{2}2 = 1$

$\log_{2}3 = \frac{\ln 3}{\ln 2} \approx \frac{1.10}{0.69} \approx 1.59$

$\log_{2}6 = \frac{\ln 6}{\ln 2} \approx \frac{1.79}{0.69} \approx 2.59$
