Pls solve

1)1/8.7^-3=y^3
find y

2)(root5-2)^2-z=(1-root20)^2.
find z

Correct the questions if I'm mistaken.

1.

1/8 * 7-3 = y3

2-3 * 7-3 = y3

(2*7)-3 = (1/y)-3

2*7 = 1/y

y = 1/14


2.


(√5 -2)2 - z = (1 - √20)2

z = (√5 -2)2 - (1 - √20)2

z = 5 - 4√5 + 4 - 1 + 2√20 - 20

z = -12 - 4√5 + 2√20

z = -12 - 4√5 + 4√5

z = -12

use Pascal's triangle or Combination method.
Hint: for power 3-----1-3-3-1(Pascal''s triangle method). Opps, low battery.

It is not an assumption. Check the solution again.

Note:

0.1< k ≤ 1

Therefore -1 ≤ log k ≤ 0

This implies that we will always round up
Thıs observatıon ıs especıally for u is prime where u is the power of exponetial expression for which the total number of digits are to be found, try 3^129, 3^17 though logk<1 but there are cases where logk is very close to 1, thus altering the actual approximation of the number of digits

Yes, I must admit there are cases where it is extremely close. But I don't think there exist a situation where it is actually 1.

There's an exception though. When the index is 1. e.g 1250 grin

For the instances above:

3129 has 62 digits.

129log3 = 61.5486... (Rounded up, we have 62) valid

317 has 9 digits.

17log3 = 8.111... (Rounded up, we have 9) valid

Oh isee thts ur idea of rounding up
and ofcourse not there is never a case where it is 0.1 or 1 exactly
it comes from the idea that it comes from the fact that every exponential expression a^b>1 is such that 10^n-1<a^b>10^n infact it was from this axiom i thought that a^b could be at any point at infinity very close to the lower boundary or the upper boundary, if it is very close to the upper boundary, where logk <1 normally based on your rounding up if you had n=999.62 forexample it would be 1000 but actually if the value of k is to considered you could have 999.62 + 0.4 which gives 1000.02 which should be approximated to 1001 somehow we would not be able to test all numbers to infinity, but we can test as many number of digits as possible, i am not trying to disprove you bro,i am just saying based on my assumption there is a possibilty of having that +-1 problem somewhere at infinity unless my assumption is wrong which is also another possibility, we are in a mathematical world, there are just too many things that are not exactly predictable.All the best
Re: Nairaland Mathematics Clinic by Agnesgrace(f): 4:09pm On Jan 29, 2016
Youngsage:

x + y =5 -------- eqn i.
x^x + y^y=31 ----- eqn ii.
From equatns i & ii, take the log of both sides
(xlog^x + ylog^y) = log 31------ eqn iii.
log(x+y) = log 5 ------------ eqn iv.
xylogxy= log 31 -------- eqn v.
log xy = log 5 --------- eqn vi.
(Using elimination method);
xylog5 = log31
xy = log 31/log 5 =6.2 approx. 6.

Recall, from eqn i, x + y = 5.
So x = 6/y or y = 6/x.
Therefore x=2 when y=3.
ans: x=2, and y=3.
. Please is logx + log y the same as log(x+y) recalling that log2 + log 3 is equal to log(2 x 3) which is not equal to log(2+3)

The third term of a geometric progressiom is nine

This thread has made some people to be lazy. People come here to ask questions without extra efforts to get them solved.

I think before any question(s) is been solved on this thread. You will need to upload your solved solution and people on this thread will then guide you to solve them.

(1).....Y=sqre root(X+X^2)

y= (x+x^2)^0.5

let u= x+x^2
=> y= u^0.5
dy/du = 0.5u^-0.5 = 1/(2√u)

du/dx = 1+2x

thus , dy/dx = du/dx * dy/du

=> dy/dx = (1+2x)* 1/(2√u)

hence dy/dx= (1+2x)/[2√(x+x^2) ]


(2)....Y=(3X^4)-(X^-1).

dy/dx = 12x^3 + x^-2


guess that's it.....hope u get

You question is seemingly inconsistent.

For a G.P the ratio of T5 to T2 is always r3.

Therefore I can't figure out why T2 is 1/24 of T5.

Kindly double check the question. Is there something I'm missing?

Also note that knowing the ratio of terms in GP cannot give us the value of the first term, I think more information are needed
