Help me solve this please
the first question log(4)3 *log(3)4+log(2)32 converting the bases log(4)3=log(2)3/log(2)4 =log(2)3/2log(2)2 log to it's base is 1 so we have log(4)3= log(2)3/2 converting log(3)4 log(2)4/log(2)3 =2log(2)2/log(2)3 =2/log(2)3 lastly log(2)32=5log(2)2=5 computing we have (log(2)3/2)*(2/log(2)3)=1 so therefore log(4)3*log(3)4+log(2)32 =5+1=6

For the first question I didn’t try it because I don’t know how to evaluate different bases.


The second one, i tried but i don’t think i got it right (see the workings)
Ok I will start with the second because I can see where you got stuck. You are finding logarithm of 4 wrongly. Its Log24 and not Log104. In that question Log of 4 is 2 and not 0.6021 (which you used).

Find below the detailed solution for the second question:

Ok.

For the first question, you need to use one of the formulas of logarithm which has to do with inversion of bases:

Please help me solve this question, in the diagram, O is the centre of the circle, SOR is 60 degree and PSO is 36 degree. Calculate angle PQR.

Thanks
SOR is an isosceles triangle.
Therefore, OSR=ORS=58
PSR=PSO+OSR=36+58=94

PQRS is a cyclic quadrilateral, then
PSR+PQR=180

Meaning PQR=180-94=86degrees

pls sir, am a 100 lvl student studying mechanical engineering, pls am having issues with set theory that has to do with words, i need you to just guide me, so i can be able to discern any question concerning set theory on my own

Thanks a bunch sir, as i await the solution, if possible you can list some good text books preferably PDFs that i can use to study

If A={zER: e^x=0} and B={yER:a^y<0} determine n(AnB)
Both A and B as defined(even as there are some issues with the definition) are empty sets hence their intersection will also be empty which implies that n(AnB) = 0
Re: Nairaland Mathematics Clinic by Spartancosta(m): 6:30am On Nov 06, 2020
Ebube043:
If A={zER: e^x=0} and B={yER:a^y<0} determine n(AnB)
A is the empty set {}. e^x is positive for all x.
If a >0, a^y>0, because a positive number to any
power is a positive number. Therefore B is the
empty set {}. The intersection of A ({}) and B ({}) is
empty ({}).
If a=0, a^y=0 for all y other than 0 (0^0 us
undefined). Therefore, B is empty ({}). The
intersection of A({}) and B({}) is empty ({}).
If a<0, a^y
=0 for y=0,
has a positive value for y=even integers,
a negative value for y=odd integers,
an imaginary value for y=rational with an even
denominator,
and weirder values (or none) for other y values.
So B={a^1, a^3, a^5, a^7, a^9, ..., a^-1, a^-3, ...}.
The intersection of A ({}) and B({...}) is empty ({}

Ebube043:
If A={zER: e^x=0} and B={yER:a^y<0} determine n(AnB)
I assume the z should be x. Apart from that, "a" is not really defined.

To solve the problem it is enough to see that A is an empty set since e^x > 0 for all xER. Since the intersection of any set with an empty is also an empty set, n(AnB)=0.

just like my mentors do tell me
you have to develop interest in the subject
and most importantly,you need to PRACTICE RELENTLESSLY.

You copied the laTEX code.
This would be the output:

Given that
f(x)=2x-4
and
g(x)=x² + 3 then
f(g(x)) is

I believe you can carry on from here.

lemme carry on boss put g inside f to find f(g(x)) f(x)=2x-4 g(x)=x²+3 f(g(x)) =2(x²+3)-4 f(g(x))=2x²+6-4 =2x²+2 it can be reversed to get g(f(x))
