Paul should sell 3 paintings per hour to recover his cost.

Step-by-step explanation:

Total paintings = 32

Minimum amount to sale = 17

Paintings sold = 3

Paintings left = 17 - 3 = 14

Time left = 5 hours

Therefore, he needs to sell 14 paintings in 5 hours.

5 hours = 14 paintings

1 hour = \frac{14}{5} = 2.8\ paintings

Rounding off to nearest whole number;

2.8 paintings = 3 paintings

Paul should sell 3 paintings per hour to recover his cost.

Write the equation of the line that passes through the points (−7,5) and (-7,-8).
Viefleur [7K]

Answer:

x = -7

Step-by-step explanation:

First we find the slope using

m = ( y2-y1)/(x2-x1)

   = ( -8 - 5)/( -7 - -7)

   = (-8-5)/(-7+7)

   = -13/0

This means the slope is undefined and the line is vertical

Vertical lines are in the form

x= constant and the constant is the x value of the points

x = -7

The Distributive Property also combines subtraction and multiplication. for example, . 3 * ( 5 - 2 ) = ( 3 * 5 ) - ( 3 * 2 ).
Sholpan [36]
So the problem ask to find or solve the problem using distributive property, so to calculate if using distributive property is just the same calculation if you are multiplying two number using a paper so the answer is 5(8)+5(90)+5(100), 40+ 450+500 = 990. I hope you understand my answer

A heated piece of metal cools according to the function c(x) = (.5)^x − 11, where x is measured in hours. A device is added that
Goryan [66]

Answer:

The temperature of metal after five years =  -18.96875

Step-by-step explanation:

Given : Function c(x) = (0.5)^x-11

where x is measured in hours

Another function is added h(x)=-x-3

therefore, the resultant function f(x)=h(x)+c(x)

f(x) = (0.5)^x-11-x-3

For x=5

f(5) = (0.5)^5-11-5-3

f(5) = (0.03125)-19

f(5) = -18.96875

Therefore, The temperature of metal after five years = -18.96875

Answer:

157.08m²

Step-by-step explanation:

Since the area of a circle is A=πr²

The radius is 10, so

A=π10²

A=314.16 (rounded to nearest hundredth)

Half of that is 157.08.
