<span>Logarithm form is another way to express a number in exponential (exp.) form. log 8 (2) is the same as 8 (x) = 2 or in words, eight with exp. x equals two. If we take that equation and cube both sides, or raise each side to the power of 3, [8 (x)] with exp. 3 = 2 with exp. 3. This simplifies to 8 (3x) = 8. By definition, 8 is the same as 8 with exp. 1. So the equation is now 8 (3x) = 8 (1). This means 3x = 1. We can simplify to x = 1/3.</span>
Answer: $0.51
Step-by-step explanation:
12/100 of $4.25 = $0.51
Amount payable plus sales tax for a 6- pack of soda will now be $4.25 + $0.51 = $4.76
If the interest rate is compounded daily, we have the effective interest rate calculated as:
r = (1 + 0.1022/30)^30 -1
r = 0.1074 or 10.74%
Therefore, the effective interest rate if the compounded daily rather than monthly is 10.74-10.22 = 0.52 points higher.
