f(x)= a+b*lnx 2013-12-04
From Kevin:
How do I find the curve, algebraically on paper, for f(x)= a+b*lnx with data points (6,1303) (9,1639). I can do it with LnReg on a calculator but I want to know how to get the same results or close to the same results by working it out on paper. When I run it through the LnReg on the calculator I get, f(x)=181.792+828.678 Ln x. How did it achieve this solution?

Substitution type simultaneous equations 2013-11-03
From Kayla:
I am having problems with substitution type simultaneous equations, when the variable you are substituting is a algebraic one:
y=x^2-3x+4 and 3x-2y=1
I have rearranged 3x-2y=1 to get x=(1+2y)/3 but when I substitute this x value into the other equation, I get the wrong answers!
Would appreciate any help! Thank you.

Substitution 2002-11-06
From John Paul:
I took a math test last week, and there was a problem which the teacher checked as incorrect. It was:

Solve: (a)RcTc=360;(b)RmTm=480;(c)Rm=2Rc; (d)Tm+Tc=15

I solved the problem and I got the following values for each variable.

For Rc=40 For Tc=9
For Rm=96 For Tm=5

I don't see nothing wrong, but the teacher checked it as wrong. Could it be a checking mistake?
