Solve the following logarithmic equations showing all work.
ln 7 + ln (n - 2) = ln 6n
Adding logs --> multiplying
ln(7) + ln(n-2) = ln(6n)
ln(7(n-2)) = ln(6n)
If the logs are equal,
7(n-2) = 6n
7n-14 = 6n
n = 14
----------------
log516 - log52t = log52
log(516) = log(52t) + log(52)
similar to the 1st one.
------------------
log5m = log5125
See #1

logy = log16 + log49
See #1

log6(b2 + 2) + log62 = 2

------------
Use d = r*t distance = rate * time
---------
rate = 48 mi/hr
time = 2 hours

3y^2+13y+4
--------------
It will be (3y + a)*(y + b)
All the signs are +, no negatives
a*b = 4, so it's either 1*4 or 2*2
(3y + 1)*(y + 4) works.
---------------
It's just a matter of trial an error, and there are only a few possibilities.
You can make a list or chart with all the possibilities, but that's still trial and error.


Systems-of-equations/477473: Solve each system of equations by using substitution.
+8x+%2B+9y+=+9+

I've multiplied the bottom equation by 3 and got 9x - 15y = 60, but it isn't going to be correct because 8x - 9x = -x so the x hasn't been eliminated. I don't know what to do about it. The rest of the problem made no sense because the numbers were too high after I plugged them in. I got -x + -6 = -51 then divided that by -6 which got me 8.5. I didn't know what to do with the -x so I just ignored it bu I don't think that's right. Any solutions?

Solve each system of equations by using substitution.
+8x+%2B+9y+=+9+
+3x+-+5y+=+20+
------------------------
You have to solve one of the eqns for x or y, then sub into the other eqn.
Substitution is not the best method for these 2, but sometimes you don't get to choose.
+3x+-+5y+=+20+
+x+=+%285y+%2B+20%29%2F3+
-------------
+8x+%2B+9y+=+9+
+8%285y%2B20%29%2F3+%2B+9y+=+9+
Multiply by 3 to eliminate fractions
+40y+%2B+160+%2B+27y+=+27+
67y = -133
y = -133/67

a car moves from one station to another with 40 km/h and return with 60 km/h. find average speed and average velocity
--------------------
The average round trip speed is similar to parallel resistors and pipes filling tanks, but multiplied by 2.
Avg = 2*40*60/(40 + 60) = 48 km/hr
Notice that it's less than (40+60)/2 because more time is spent going 40 than going 60.
--------------------
Velocity is a vector that specifies speed and direction. It's often used to mean speed. No direction info is given here.

Find an equation of the line having given the slope and containing given point. M=4 , (6,3)
-----------------------
Here's one way:
Use y = mx + b and the point to find b
3 = 4*6 + b
b = -21
--------
--> y = 4x - 21
-----------------
Here's another way, useful when you're given 2 points:
Find a 2nd point by adding 4 to y and 1 to x
--> (7,7)
Use determinants:
-------
|x y 1|
|6 3 1| = 0
|7 7 1|
-------
x*(3-7) - y*(6-7) + (42-21) = 0
-4x + y = -21
4x - y = 21 same eqn in standard form

3 = (1 + 0.065/12)^n (n = # of months)
