QUESTION
What is the probability that a number chosen at random from d integers
1-10 inclusive is either a prime or multiple of 3?
a)7/10 (b 3/5 (c 4/5 (d 1/2 (e 3/10
abeg d answer may i get dey option but my textbook fail am 4 me-
tanx[/quote]solution
no of prime btw 1-10 = 4
no of multiples of 3 btw 1-10= 3
pr(prime or multiples of 3) = 4/10 + 3/10 = 7/10

Mr Calculus: log(x^2+7x-2)base2=log(x^2+3x-6)base2+log8base4..
log(x^2+7x-2)-log(x^2+3x-6)=3/2log2base2..log2base2=1,
log(x^2+7x-2)base2/log(x^2+3x-6)base2=3/2.
.logbase2 cancels each other
(x^2+7x-2)/(x^2+3x-6)=3/2..
.cros multiply
x^2+7x-2=3/2(x^2+3x-6)..
multiply both by 2
2(x^2+7x-2)=3(x^2+3x-6)
2x^2+14x-4=3x^2+9x-18...by colectin lyk tems u'l get
x^2-5x-14=0..quadraticaly x=7 or x=-2

doubleDx: I actually wanted to type 1.414 for √2. So I'm reposting ====>>>>>>>>>>>>>>


Solution

Log(x2 + 7x - 2)2 = Log(x2 + 3x - 6)2 + Log84

Log(x2 + 7x - 2)2 = Log(x2 + 3x - 6)2 + Log2322
Log(x2 + 7x - 2)2 - Log(x2 + 3x - 6)2 = 3/2Log22

Log22 = 1, also we have same bases on the LHS, so we apply the law of log here to yield=>

Log{(x2 + 7x - 2)/(x2 + 3x - 6)}2 = 3/2 * (1)

Eliminating Log2 yields =>

(x2 + 7x - 2)/(x2 + 3x - 6) = 2^(3/2)
(x2 + 7x - 2)/(x2 + 3x - 6) = √23
(x2 + 7x - 2)/(x2 + 3x - 6) = 2√2
x2 + 7x - 2 = 2√2 (x2 + 3x - 6)
x2 + 7x - 2 = 2√2 x2 + 6x√2 - 12√2

Collecting like terms yields =>

x2 - 2√2 x2 + 7x - 6x√2 + 12√2 - 2 = 0
x2( 1 - 2√2) + x (7 - 6√2) + 12√2 - 2 = 0

Applying quadratic formula to the above =>

a = ( 1 - 2√2), b = (7 - 6√2) and c = 12√2 - 2
x = {-b±√(b2 - 4ac)}/2a
x = {(6√2 - 7) ± √[(7 - 6√2)2 - 4(1 - 2√2)(12√2 - 2)]}/2( 1 - 2√2)

√2 = 1.41 approx, substituting and evaluating yields =>

x = {(6(1.41) - 7) ± √[(7 - 6(1.41))2 - 4(1 - 2(1.41))(12(1.41) - 2)]}/2( 1 - 2(1.41))
x = {1.46 ± √(2.23 + 108.62)}/(-3.64)
x = [1.46 ± √110.85]/(-3.64)
x = [1.46 ± 10.53]/(-3.64)

Splitting =>

x = (1.46 + 10.53)/(-3.64) or (1.46 - 10.53)/(-3.64)
x = 11.99/(-3.64) or 9.07/3.64

Rounding the values of x to one decimal place yields=>

x = -3.3 approx or 2.5 approx

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);
