The mistake lies in the fact that the logarithms have different bases. The one-to-one property of logarithms cannot be applied unless the bases are identical. <span>To correct this, the change of base formula should be used to express the logarithms with a uniform base.
I have confirmed this using Edge.</span>
Response:
Detailed explanation:
The length of the pool is longer than its width by 8 meters.
If we designate L as length and W as width, we can express this as:
L = 8 + W
We also know that the area amounts to 105 m squared.
Note:
Area of a Rectangle = Length x Width
Thus, 105 = (8 + W) x W

To adjust the equation, subtract 105 from both sides:

The tension does not approach infinity.
<span>Let's analyze free body diagrams (FBDs) for each mass, considering the direction of motion of m₁ as positive.
For m₁: m₁*g - T = m₁*a
For m₂: T - m₂*g = m₂*a
Assuming a massless cord and pulley without friction, the accelerations are the same.
From the second equation: a = (T - m₂*g) / m₂
Substitute into the first:
m₁*g - T = m₁ * [(T - m₂*g) / m₂]
Rearranging:
m₁*g - T = (m₁*T)/m₂ - m₁*g
2*m₁*g = T * (1 + m₁/m₂)
2*m₁*m₂*g = T * (m₂ + m₁)
T = (2*m₁*m₂*g) / (m₂ + m₁)
Taking the limit as m₁ approaches infinity:
T = 2*m₂*g
This aligns with intuition since the greatest acceleration m₁ can have is -g. The cord then accelerates m₂ upward at g while gravity acts downward, leading to a maximum upward acceleration of 2*g for m₁.</span>
An even function can be reflected over the y-axis and still remain unchanged.
Example: y=x^2
On the other hand, an odd function can be reflected around the origin and also remains unchanged.
Example: y=x^3
A straightforward method to determine this is:
if f(x) is even, then f(-x)=f(x)
if f(x) is odd, then f(-x)=-f(x)
Hence, for an even function
substitute -x in for each and check for equivalence
make sure to fully expand the expressions
g(x)=(x-1)^2+1=x^2-2x+1+1=x^2-2x+2 is the original expression
g(x)=(x-1)^2+1
g(-x)=(-x-1)^2+1
g(-x)=(1)(x+1)^2+1
g(-x)=x^2+2x+1+1
g(-x)=x^2+2x+2
Not the same, as the original contains -2x
Therefore, it is not even
g(x)=2x^2+1
g(-x)=2(-x)^2+1
g(-x)=2x^2+1
It matches, hence it is even
g(x)=4x+2
g(-x)=4(-x)+2
g(-x)=-4x+2
Not equivalent, thus not even
g(x)=2x
g(-x)=2(-x)
g(-x)=-2x
Not equal, therefore not even
g(x)=2x²+1 is the confirmed even function.
The minimum distance is the same from both points because their lengths are equal.
