1. Let m, n, p, q \in Z If 0 < m < n and 0< p \leq q, then mp < nq 2. Propositions/axioms I can use that relate to inequalities 2.4 Let m,n,p \in Z. If m < n and n < p, then m < p 2.5 For each n \in N there exists an m \in N such that m > n 2.6 Let m,n \in Z. If m \leq n \leq m then...

1. How many ways are there to rearrange the letters of INVESTIGATION given that the first letter is a V and the last letter is not a T? I get the first part, first letter being V cuts the # of combinations from 13! to 12!, but how do I handle the part about the last letter not being T? Most...

ohhh man, that's embarrassing. thanks for your help! should have had that one

i don't think you understand my question. i have to solve for x for... 5(0.10)^x = 4(0.12)^x when i graph 5(0.10)^x and 4(0.12)^x and use the intersection finder, i get x = 1.2239011, which when i plug into the equation yields a correct answer (.29856 = .29856) but i simply can't find this...

also, I'm not sure if i should be getting 5x*ln(.1) = 4x*ln(.12) -or- x*ln(.5)=x*ln(.48)

5(0.10)^x = 4(0.12)^x... x = ? getting aggravated Homework Statement 5(0.10)^x = 4(0.12)^x this problem is driving me nuts. i graphed it and got x~1.2239011 but I can't find it on paper. i have been using the property ln(a^x) = x*ln(a) The Attempt at a Solution i tried doing...
