fasodecapo: log2(x2 + 7x -2) = log2(x2 + 3x - 6) + log48;
log2(x2 + 7x -2) = log2(x2 + 3x - 6)+ 1/2log28;
log2(x2 + 7x -2) = log2(x2 + 3x - 6) + log283/2;
log2(x2 + 7x -2) = log2(83/2)(x2 + 3x - 6);
x2 + 7x -2 = (83/2)(x2 + 3x - 6);

oladoya: here comes the answer... (1) log9-log3+log9 since they are in diff base just represent it with letter so we have A-B-C so lets solve A... Log9base3=a, then let the base have a as its power then we have 9=3^a, 3^2=3^a equate the base we have a=2.... Then lets take B... Log3base27=b, 3=27^b, 3^1=3^3b equ base, we have b=1/3.... Now C..... Log9basert3=c, 9= 3^c/2 we have 3^2=3^c/3 equ base we have 2=c/2 cross mult. We c=4 then remenber A-B+C = 2-1/3+4=17/3.... 2nd question (logx)base2-(logx-1)base2=2... According to the rule take a log(x/(x-1))=2, x/(x-1)=2^2, x/(x-1)=4 cross multiply you have x=4x-4, x-4x=4, -3x=-4, x=4/3...... No3 solving it quadratically we have x>1/2 or x>-4

Boladearo: (81^1/log3) / (36^1/log6). The logs are in base 2.
I am assuming that the question says 81^(1/log3) / 36^(1/log6)
.From laws of logarithn, 1/logb base a=loga base b
So we ave 81^log2 base 3/ 36^log2 base 6
3^4log2 base3/ 6^2log2 base 6
But b^ylogx bseb=ylogx baseb=logx^y baseb

Boladearo: (81^1/log3) / (36^1/log6). The logs are in base 2.
Is it like this: 81^1/(log3) / 36^1/(log6) or like this : 81^(1/log3) / 36^(1/log6) ?

General Masperano dont be so sure about that conclusion that everyone knows.
EducationRe: Nairaland Mathematics Clinic by echibuzor: 9:32am On Jun 05, 2013
donedy: Your calculation is right, per say. But next time try to state the condition under which the solution is valid. You cannot just divide both sides of the equation by an algebraic expression without some conditions.

Basically, when you divided both sides 2y - 4, you should have explicitly stated "for y != 2", for deduction to be valid.
.

Thats a good observation Sir, So as not to give an undefined solution at y=2.

Ortarico: nice one @echibuzor. . . .thanks for the hint
Here it is:

y= 4x + 3/2x - 5
cross multiplyng gives:
y(2x - 5) = 4x + 3
2xy - 5y = 4x + 3
collect like terms:
2xy - 4x = 3 + 5y
x(2y - 4) = 3 + 5y
dividng both sides by 2y - 4 gives:
x = 3 + 5y/2y - 4
re-arrangng gives:
x= 5y + 3/2y - 4. . . . . .answer

P(2 jobs) = 0.2 *0.2 = 0.04
P(no jobs) = 0.8 * 0.8 = 0.64

1 - 0.64-0.04 = 1- 0.68 = 0.32

You can also do P(one job, no job = 0.8 * 0.2 = 0.16

EducationRe: Nairaland Mathematics Clinic by echibuzor:
johnpaul1101: Please someone should help me out with this: solve cos345 without the use of calculator or table
That's Cos 15 in the fourth quadrant.... Solution Loading


cos 2x = 2cos^2 15 - 1
2cos^2x = cos2x + 1 ... x = 15

2cos^2 (15) = cos 30 + 1 .... Cos 30 = (√3)/2

2cos^2 (15) = [(√3)/2] + 1

cos^2 (15) = ([(√3)/2] + 1) /2

2cos^2 15 = [(√3) + 2] /2

cos^2 15 = [(√3) + 2] /4

Square root both sides...
cos15 = ±√([(√3) + 2] /4)

cos15 = (√[(√3) + 2])/2

and that, my friend, is cos 345 = cos 15 = (√[(√3) + 2])/2...

Did u notice that i removed the ± in the final answer? That's because Cos is always positive in the fourth quadrant....

At first I was solving for sin15 before i looked at the question again... But, Hey, U might need it too someday right?

So, Here goes, Its quite lengthy and questions about further explanations are welcomed... Lets go there....
.
.
.
.
.
.


Sin (2y) = 2sinycosy ------ (by putting y=15)
Sin30 = 2sin15cos15 ------(ii) (cos^2 (y) = 1 – sin^2 (y))
Hence, cosy = √(1 – sin^ (y))
By putting this into eq (ii) we have;
Sin30 =2sin15 * √1-sin^2 (15)
Square both sides…
Sin^2 (30) = 4sin^2 (15) (1 – Sin^2 (15))
Open Bracket to give…
Sin^2 (30) = 4sin^2 (15) – 4sin^4 (15)
Remember that Sin ^2 (30) = Sin30 * Sin30 and Sin 30 = ½ (abi?)
So: ½ * ½ = 4Sin^2 (15) - 4Sin^4 (15)
¼ = 4Sin^2 (15) - 4Sin^4 (15)
Cross Multiply…..
1 = 16Sin^2 (15) – 16Sin^4 (15) =>>> 16Sin^4 (15) -16Sin^2 (15) +1 = 0
What we have here is a quadratic equation of the Sin^2 form
Let Sin^2 (15) = x
Our new equation becomes…..
16x2 – 16x + 1 = 0
Using Quadratic Formulae (Popularly known as Almighty Fomular)
x = [-(-16) ± √162 - 64 ] /32
==>> [16±√256 – 64] /32
==>> [16 ± √192] /32 ==>> [16 ± √64 * √3] / 32
==>> [16 ± 8√3] /32 …… By Simplifying with a common factor (cool
==>> [2 ± √3] /4 ]
Sin^2 (15) = [2 ± √3] /4]
Sqrt both sides….
Sin15 = ± (√[2± √3] /4 )
This is where the logic comes in… Remember that I said Sin345 is Sin 15 in the fourth Quadrant (Fourth Quadrant is angles between 2710 and 3600) and any Sine in the Fourth Quadrant gives a negative answer… This point eliminates + √[2± √3] /4 from being a valid answer, which gives us with -√[2± √3] /4… Also (√2+√3) / 4 gives a value too extreme to be relevant… Hence, we are left with
-√[2 - √3] /4 as our answer for sin15
To have a more simplified answer… -√[2 - √3] /4 is also the same as [√(2 - √3)] / √4 which gives -[√(2 - √3)] /2 …….. That is your answer… Confirm with a calculator… Questionand request on further explanations are welcome…
