Answer:

Amount of snow in inches, which we have to represented in decimal

       =6\frac{7}{8}\\\\=6.875

The fraction when represented in decimals, will be terminating as denominator of the mixed fraction (8) contains power of 2=2³.

The rule states that, if denominator of the fraction has term 2^m,\text{or} 5^n,\text{or},2^m \times 5^n,then the decimal expansion of fraction will be terminating.

Density is the measurement of the amount of mass per unit of volume. 
In this case we should calculate the density of prairie dog burrows on a square field. This is a surface charge density.It is defined as the total amount of units q per km^2.
to calculate<span> the </span>density of prairie dog burrows, we should divide the total number of  prairie dog burrows in the field <span>by the size of the field. Thus,
</span><span>
 </span>prairie dog <span>burrows in square kilometers= number of dog burrows/ size of the field

size of the field=0.9*0.9=900*900=180000m^2
1980/180000</span><span> m^2= 0.011 dog burrows in square meter 
11 dogs in square kilometer</span>

Solve 5(2^x+4)=15 round to the nearest thousandth
Novosadov [1.4K]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Begin by dividing by 5

2x + 4 = 3            

Is this written as 2^(x + 4) = 3? I think it is.

Take the log of both sides

log 2^(x + 4) = log(3)

(x + 4) * log(2) = log 3

log 2 = 0.30103

log 3 = 0.47712

(x + 4) = log2 / log3

x + 4 = 0.63093               Add 4 to both sides

x = -3.369                        Rounded to the nearest thousandth

====================

If you mean the question exactly as it is written (the 4 is not part of the power)

5(2^x + 4) = 15

2^x + 4 = 3

2^x = 3 - 4

2^x = - 1

This can't be done 2 to any power should be >0.

if x>0 then this will give an ever increasing number

if xK0 then this will give an ever decreasing answer but still greater than 0.

No value will make 2^x go to something minus.

If I have misread this in some way, leave a note and I will get back to you.

Paul is going to have the exterior of his home painted. Painting USA charges $75.00 to come out and evaluate the house plus $25.
user100 [1]
Given:$75
25 hours

Painting USA : Fixed cost: $75 ; Variable Cost: $25x
Total Cost = 75 + 25(25) = 75 + 625 = 700

Upscale Home Painting: No Fixed Cost ; Variable Cost : $40x
Total Cost = 40(25) = 1,000

The most cost effective company will be Painting USA whose charge will amount to $700.
