Question

I need help.....if x,y>0, log y(x)+(x) log x(y)=10/3 and xy=144 then what is the value of x+y/2? homework problem please...

Answer 1

if x,y>0, log y(x)+(x) log x(y)=10/3 and xy=144 then what is the value of x+y/2?

Answer 2

Please help me. I dont even know where to start......

Answer 3

Log ofy(x) +x = what?

Answer 4

use x=144/y or y=144/x to get the equation into one variable

Answer 5

if x,y >0, log of y(x) +(x)=10/3 log of x(y)=10/3 and xy=144 then what is the value of x+y/2? Does that answer your question?

Answer 6

and remember the rules for rewriting logs

Answer 7

am i supposed to substitute for all the variables?

Answer 8

and should I substitute for the bases as well?

Answer 9

write it out more clearly, one equation per line using parenthesis to show what is in the log

Answer 10

ok

Answer 11

x,y>0
log y (x)+log x(y)=10/3

Answer 12

and xy=144
what is the value of (x+y)/2?

Answer 13

when you write out the log you need to show what is part of the log: log(x)y is different than log(xy) and so on

Answer 14

put the parenthesis first after to the log indicating that what is in the parenthesis is part of the log, that should be how you write it on your homework so it's clear

Answer 15

log base y (x)+ log base x (y)

Answer 16

Do you mean like what he just wrote?^

Answer 17

Yeah

Answer 18

Not you Jonathan. I'm talking to the people tryin to help.....

Answer 19

Try reposting the problem properly because I dont think I am posting it right.
