y = 12x represents the gallons of paint used in x hours.

Step-by-step explanation:

CJ uses 3 gallons of paint in 15 minutes,

15 minutes = 3 gallons

1 minutes = \frac{3}{15} = \frac{1}{5} \ gallons\\

1 hour = 60 minutes

Gallons of paint used in 1 hour;

1 hour = \frac{1}{5}*60=12\ gallons

CJ uses 12 gallons of paint in 1 hour.

For x hours = 12*x = 12x

Gallons of paints used = y

y = 12x represents the gallons of paint used in x hours.

It takes 32 minutes for 3 people to paint 4 walls. How many minutes does it take 4 people to paint 7 walls?
vampirchik [111]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Assuming each person gets the same amount of work done, each wall in the first scenario takes 8 minutes to paint. If 3 people paint 4 walls, then each person is painting 1 1/3 of a wall. We can use that to find out how long it takes one person to paint 1 1/3 walls:

\frac{8min}{wall}*\frac{4}{3}walls=\frac{32}{3}min. Interpreting that, it takes each person 10 2/3 minutes to paint 1 1/3 walls.

If 4 people paint 7 walls, that means that each person is painting 7/4 walls, or 1.75 walls each. Using the fact that it takes 10.66666 minutes to paint 1.33333 walls, we can find out how many minutes it will take to paint 1.75 walls:

\frac{10.6666}{1.33333}=\frac{x}{1.75} Cross multiply to get

18.666655 = 1.3333x so

x = 14.000 minutes

Enter the value for x that makes the given equation true. 36x=6
vodka [1.7K]

Answer:

1/6

Step-by-step explanation:

To find the value of x that makes the equation true we isolate x on one side of the equation. Technically this is  solving for x. The Division Property of Equality states that if we divide both sides of an equation by the same amount then we will have an equivalent equation. We can divide both sides of this equation by 36 to get x = 1/6

Solve the exponential equation.<br><br> 1/16 = 64x<br><br> a. -2/3<br> b. 2/3<br> c. 3/2
valkas [14]
We have that
1/16 = 64<span>^x
applying log both sides
log(1/16)=log(</span>64^x)
log 1-log16=x*log64
-log 16=x*log 64
divide by log 64 both sides
x=-log 16/log 64
log 16=log 2^4-----> 4*log 2
log 64=log 2^6-----> 6*log 2
-log 16/log 64=(-4*log 2)/(6*log 2)-----> -4/6------> -2/3

the answer is 
x=-2/3
