Solve By Elimination

-8x-24=-8y  1=-1/3x+3/10y  Solution -8x + 8y = 24 (-1/3)x + (3/10)y = 1   Divide the first equation by -8 and multiply the second equation  by 30:                 x – y = -3…

Solve The Following Logarithmic Equation

2log(base 3)(x-4)+log(base 3)3=3 Solution Answer: x=7, 1 First, use the properties of logarithms to move the 2 up front. It can become an exponent: log3(x-4)2 + log33=3 Use properties of logarithms again to combine the two logs, since they have…

Simplify Expression

If x>0, simplify the expression below   sqrt((x)/(1-(x-1)/(x))) Solution IN the denominator of the complex fraction, the Least common denominator is X: 1 – (x-1)/x = (x-(x-1))/ x = (x – x +1)/x = 1/x SInce the 1/x is in…
