Answer:

5390 gallons of water was wasted by the city's residents last year.

Step-by-step explanation:

Let x denotes gallons of water wasted by the city's residents last year.

Gallons of water wasted by the city's residents this year = 2695 gallons

This is 50% less than last year.

Therefore,

x-\frac{50}{100}x=2695\\\\\frac{50}{100}x=2695\\\\\frac{x}{2} =2695\\\\x=2(2695)

x=5390 gallons

So, 5390 gallons of water was wasted by the city's residents last year.

Help i will mark brainliest!!!
sineoko [7]

Answer:

See below.

Step-by-step explanation:

The square root of a number is a number than when multiplied by itself, you get the original number.

For example, the square root of 4 is 2 since 2 * 2 = 4, but the square root of 4 is also -2 since (-2) * (-2) = 4. Since the product of 2 negative numbers is positive, and the product of two positive numbers is also positive, each positive integer has two square roots, one positive and one negative.

The cubic root of a number is a number that when you cube you get the original number. To cube a number, you must find the product of 3 equal numbers. For example, the cubic root of 8 is 2 since 2 * 2 * 2 = 8. The cubic root of 8 cannot be -2 since (-2) * (-2) * (-2) = -8, not 8. When you multiply 3 positive numbers together, the product is positive. When you multiply three negative numbers together, the product is negative. Because of this, a positive number has a positive cubic root, and a negative number has a negative cubic root. A positive integer has only one cubic root.

Use the remainder theorem to determine the remainder when 3t²+5t-7 is divided by t-5
Brrunno [24]
f(t)=3t^2+5t-7\implies f(5)=3(5)^2+5(5)-7=93

which means the remainder upon dividing f(t) by t-5 is 93.

This is because we can write

\dfrac{f(t)}{t-5}=q(t)+\dfrac{r(t)}{t-5}

where q(t) is the quotient and r(t) is the remainder. Multiplying both sides by t-5, then evaluating at t=5 makes the q(t) term vanish, leaving the remainder:

f(t)=q(t)(t-5)+r(t)\implies f(5)=r(5)
