Q:

Kim solved the equation below by graphing a system of equations. log2(3x-1)= log4(x+8) What is the approximate solution to the equation?

Accepted Solution

A:
Answer:(1.35, 1.6)Step-by-step explanation:A screenshot of the graph is attached.Once we graph the equations [tex]y=\log_2(3x-1)[/tex] and [tex]y=\log_4(x+8)[/tex], the solution to this system will be their intersection point.Tracing the graph on the calculator, we see that the point of intersection is at about (1.35, 1.6).
