Answer:

y =  4  or y = 6

Step-by-step explanation:

2log4y - log4 (5y - 12) = 1/2

​2log_4(y) - log_4(5y-12) = log_4(2)           apply law of logarithms

log_4(y^2) + log_4(1/(5y-12)) = log_4(/2)    apply law of logarithms

log_4(y^2/(5y-12)) = log_4(2)                     remove logarithm

y^2/(5y-12) = 2                                            cross multiply

y^2 = 10y-24                                                  rearrange and factor

y^2 - 10y + 24 = 0

(y-4)(y-6) = 0

y= 4 or y=6

The triangle DEF is shown in the diagram.<br>Find the exact value of x.<br>​
vladimir1956 [14]

Answer:

x = 4

Step-by-step explanation:

Using cosine triangle formula, we know that;

c² = a² + b² - 2ac(cos C)

From our diagram;

a = 2x

b = x + 1

c = 7

C = 60°

Thus;

7² = (2x)² + (x + 1)² - 2(2x)(x + 1)cos 60

49 = 4x² + (x² + 2x + 1) - (4x² + 4x)(0.5)

49 = 5x² + 2x + 1 - 2x² - 2x

3x² + 1 - 49 = 0

3x² - 48 = 0

3x² = 48

x² = 48/3

x² = 16

x = √16

x = 4
