SOLVE: log x - log (x+4) = -1

x = 4/9

Step-by-step explanation:

Remember when you subtract logs, you divide the numbers;

This means;

log x - log (x+4) = -1   ---------can be written as;

Eliminate the log as

x/ x+4 = 1/10

10x=x+4 --------collect like terms

10x-x =4

9x = 4 ------find value of x

x= 4/9

answer:  

step-by-step explanation:

here x represents the height of the pole,

and, the height of the shadow of the pole is 12 feet.

also, the angle of elevation from the top of the pole is 40°,

therefore,

by the low of sine,

which is the required equation for finding the value of x,

ruth is 6 years old

step-by-step explanation:

6 + 24 = 30,   so 6/30 = .2  

if you do 1/5 it also equals .2, so that is the answer.
