For inverse and identity elements in binary operation,

e = identity element
a' = inverse of a

For any operation,
a * e = a and a * a' = e

For instance, in addition operation, the identity element e = 0(zero) since
a + 0 = a (no other number can replace 0 here giving us the same result, a)
While the inverse of a is -a since a + (-a) = 0.

1. X*Y=X^Y(X power y). Find X if X*2=12-X.
2. If M*N=N-(M+2). find 3*(-5)
3..find m*n=m+n+mn.find the inverse of 5.if the identity element is 0
4.x*y=x2-y2/2xy find -5*3.
5.If a*b=ab+2(a+b+1). Find the identity element

Help solve this log1.728 base1.2
log a base b = log a /log b
Therefore, log1.728 base1.2 = log1.728 /log1.2
= log(1.2)³/log 1.2
= 3log(1.2)/log1.2
= 3

The sum of the first two terms of a G.P is 28, but the sum of the third and fourth terms is 252. Find the second term of the G.P if the seventh term is 5103.

Note that for ax² + bx + c = 0
If a is negative, we'll be asked to calculate the maximum point/value
But if a is positive, that's minimum tinz straight

@ thankyoujesus can you solve this question again?
But this time, on a piece of paper. .. The you post the snap shot here. ... sorry for stressing you. embarassed

i think it was a typo. It should be +.

Wow, so quick and straight forward. I've used 5 pages in solving this thing grin.

honestly that question looked "alienated" when I saw it; I don't know the topic it was coined out from.
So I just did a bit of coordinate geometry: length = sqrt( (x2 - x1)2 + (y2 - y1)2 )

then I squared the result. I got what you got: 16
