Question

solve each equation. Round your answers to the nearest ten-thousandth. Please show your work. Part 4A​

Answer 1

Answer:

22.

     log3(4) + log3(5x^2 + 1) = 2

<=> log3(4 x (5x^2 + 1)) = log3(9)

<=> 20x^2 + 4 = 9

<=> 20x^2 = 5

<=> x^2 = 1/4

<=> x = +/- (1/2)

23.

      log8(4x^2 + 1) - log8(2) = log8(5)

<=> log8((4x^2 + 1)/2) = log8(5)

<=> 2x^2 + 1/2 = 5

<=> 2x^2 = 9/2

<=> x^2 = 9/4

<=> x = +- (3/2)

24.

      log8(4x^2 - 9) - log8(5) = 1

<=> log8((4x^2 - 9)/5) = log8(8)

<=> (4x^2 - 9)/5 = 8

<=> 4x^2 - 9 = 40

<=> 4x^2 = 49

<=> x^2 = 49/4

<=> x = +/- (7/2)

Hope this helps!
