Answer:

The number of students who received the paint=5 students

Step-by-step explanation:

Step 1: Determine amount given to each student

Quantity per student=1/7 gallon per student

Step 2: Determine the total amount of paint Mrs. Jennings had

The total quantity of paint Mrs. Jennings is:

Initial quantity of paint=5/7 gallon

Step 3: Calculate number of students who received the paint

The number of students who received the paint can be expressed as;

Initial quantity of paint=Quantity per student×number of students

where;

Initial quantity of paint=5/7 gallons

Quantity per student=1/7 gallons

number of students=n

replacing;

5/7=(1/7)×n

n=(5/7)×7

n=5

The number of students who received the paint=5 students

If f(3) = 3^x and g(x) = 7^x then the graph of g(x) will be — the graph of f(x) when x<0.
Allushta [10]

Using the given exponential functions, it is found that the graph of g(x) will be less than than the graph of f(x) when x < 0.

<h3>What are the exponential functions?</h3>

The given exponential functions, f(x) and g(x), are respectively given by:

  • f(x) = 3^x
  • g(x) = 7^x

When x < 0, one possible value is x = -1, hence evaluating the functions at these values:

f(-1) = 3^{-1} = \frac{1}{3}

g(-1) = 7^{-1} = \frac{1}{7}

\frac{1}{3} > \frac{1}{7}, hence, the graph of g(x) will be less than than the graph of f(x) when x < 0.

Cody's rent is increasing by $51 per month starting next year. That is an increase of 15% from his current monthly rent. Let r r
Inessa05 [86]

Answer:

r = 43.35

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

Current\ Rent = r

Increment = 15\%

New\ Rent = \$51

Required

Determine the value of r

The value of r can be set up percentage increase formula as follows:

\%Increment  = \frac{New\ Rent - Current\ Rent}{Current\ Rent}

Substitute values in the above equation

15\% = \frac{51 - r}{51}

Cross Multiply

51 - r = 15\% * 51

Convert percentage to decimal

51 - r = 0.15 * 51

51 - r = 7.65

And the value of r\ is\ calculated\ using:

r = 51 -7.65

r = 43.35

Hence, Cody's current rent is $43.35 monthly

choose the equation below that represents the line that passes through the point (−2, −1) and has a slope of 5. (5 points) y − 1
Rus_ich [418]
Equation of a line;
y=mx+c
m=5
y=5x+c
Replacing for x and y using point (-2, -1)
-1=5(-2)+c
-1=-10+c
c=-1+10
c=9
y=5x+9

If 10,500 is decomposed in a compound interest account paying 2.99% interest annually, how much will be in the account after 5 y
Irina-Kira [14]
1) To work out the result after a percentage is applied to a number, you work out 'the percentage number/100' and write the answer of this calculation down.                         2) You THEN multiply this calculated number (called the 'percentage multiplier') by your orginal number (called the 'principal').                                                                  3) The result of this calculation gives you the answer of what happens when your orginal number is multiplied by a certain percentage.                                                    4) Thus, for a 2.99% increase work out: " (100+2.99)/100 "
    The answer is 1.029 - SO THIS is your percentage multiplier.                                   5) Your earn 2.99% interest each year for 5 years. Thus you multiply your principal (10,500) by the calculated percentage multiplier (1.029), BUT you you multiply the principal by this multiplier 5 TIMES!                                                                              6) So, the calulation is:10,500 × (1.029^5).                                                                  7) This EQUALS $12,113.403198) Rounded to the nearest cent, the final amount in the account AFTER 5  YEARS = $12,113.40                                                                  8) THE ANSWER IS THUS: $12,113.40
