Each friend will get 1\frac{3}{4}\ gallons of paint

Step-by-step explanation:

The total paint will be divided among 3 friends by dividing the total paint by 3.

So,

Given

Total\ paint= 5\frac{1}{4}\ gallons = \frac{21}{4}\ gallons\\Total\ friends=3\\Share\ of\ each\ friend = \frac{\frac{21}{4}}{3}\\=\frac{21}{4}*\frac{1}{3}\\=\frac{21}{12}\\=\frac{7}{4}\\=1\frac{3}{4}

Each friend will get 1\frac{3}{4}\ gallons of paint

Kate decides to replace all the lights in her college apartment with energy saving light bulbs beginning this month. The packagi
tatyana61 [14]

Answer:

Kate's electric bill will be $9 for this month for bulb use only.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given:

Electricity bill lass month from bulb use = $12

Using new bulbs percent decrease in electricity = 25%

We need to find this month electric bill for bulb use.

Solution:

First we will find the reduction in bill after using new bulbs.

reduction in bill after using new bulbs can be calculated by percent decrease in electricity using new bulb multiplied by last month Electricity bill from bulb use only.

framing in equation form we get;

reduction in bill after using new bulbs = \frac{25}{100}\times 12 =\$3

Now we will find this month electric bill for bulb use only.

this month electric bill for bulb use only can be calculated by subtracting reduction in bill after using new bulbs from last month electric bill for bulb use only.

framing in equation form we get;

this month electric bill for bulb use only = \$12-\$3=\$9

Hence Kate's electric bill will be $9 for this month for bulb use only.

A cookie company packages its cookies in rectangular prism boxes designed with square bases that have both a length and width of
maw [93]

Answer:

h³- 8h² + 16h

Step-by-step explanation:

The problem tells us that the length and width of these boxes are both 4 inches less than the height of the box.

So if we name <u>h the height of the box</u>, the <u>width of the box would be h - 4 </u>and the <u>height of the box would be h - 4.</u>

Now, the volume  of a rectangular prism is given by V = height x width x length

So, considering the values we have in this problem we get:

V= height x width x volume

V = h (h-4)(h-4)

V= h(h-4)²

V= h (h²-8h + 16)

V = h³- 8h² + 16h

Therefore, the polynomial representing the volume of this box in terms of the height is h³- 8h² + 16h
