Answer:

\implies \text{Required Number = }-40\tfrac{1}{4}

Step-by-step explanation:

\text{Part of the thread which is being cut from a spool = }5\tfrac{3}{4}\\\\=\frac{23}{4}

Number of students in the school project = 7

So, total part which is cut from the thread on the spool = Number of students × Part of the thread cut by one student

\text{Total part = }7\times \frac{23}{4}\\\\=\frac{161}{4}\\\\=40\tfrac{1}{4}

But, we are asked to tell a number which represents the change in the amount of the thread on the spool.

⇒ Required Number = Inverse of the total part which is cut

\implies \text{Required Number = }-40\tfrac{1}{4}

Solving Exponential Equations (lacking a common base)<br><br>(0.52)^q=4
bulgar [2K]

Answer:

q = log4 / log0.53

q = -2.189

Step-by-step explanation:

(0.53)^q = 4

Taking log of both sides!

q log 0.53 = log 4

q = log 4 / log 0.53

q = 0.602 / -0.275

q = - 2.189

This can be checked to confirm correctness.

Substituting q = -2.189

(0.53)^ -2.189 = 1/ 0.249

= 4.01 Proved!

(Note that the "1" is because of the negative sign)

If gas costs $3.15 per gallon, how many whole gallons of gas could you buy with $27.00?
Volgvan

Answer: 8 whole gallons.

Step-by-step explanation: If you have only $27.00 and you need to buy gas, but each gallon is $3.15, then you just need to divide your total amount ($27.00) by your cost per gallon ($3.15), and you will get about 8.6 gallons, however this question asks for how many WHOLE gallons you can get, so all you need to do is round down to fit your budget, leaving money for only 8 whole gallons.

WORK: ($27.00) / ($3.15) = 8.6 gallons

Which represents where f(x) = g(x)?
Lyrx [107]

The <em><u>correct answer</u></em> is:

f(2) = g(2) and f(0) = g(0)

Explanation:

If f(x) = g(x), this means the values of the functions are the same when using the same numbers.  That means if we use 2 for x, then f(2) would need to be equal to g(2); if we use 0 for x, then f(0) would need to be equal to g(0).  This is the case in this option, so this option is correct.
