It is given that 2^x = 5^y = 10^z , express z in terms of x and y

9514 1404 393

  z = (xy)/(x+y)

Step-by-step explanation:

Taking logarithms base 10, we have ...

  x·log(2) = y·log(5) = z·log(10)

  z = x·log(2) = y·log(5) . . . . . . . . log(10) = 1

__

Then z/x = log(2), and z/y = log(5), so ...

  z/x +z/y = log(2) +log(5) = log(2·5) = 1

  z = 1/(1/x +1/y) = 1/((x+y)/(xy))

  z = (xy)/(x+y)

step-by-step explanation:

idk the answer i want to say 10 but then it would be equal so try 9 but then yeah so yeah we love edgen

step-by-step explanation:

step 1: solve one of the equations for one of the variables. let's solve the first equation for y:

step 2: substitute that equation into the other equation, and solve for x.

step 3: substitute x = 4 x = 4 x=4 into one of the original equations, and solve for y.
