Answer: The number is -20

Step-by-step explanation:

Take each part of the sentence and write what it is telling us:

3 less than the quotient of a number and 5 is -7

The quotient of a number and 5 is (X/5), where X is the "number."

3 less than is (X/5) - 3

is -7 is = -7

Therefore:

3 less than the quotient of a number and 5 is -7 is: (X/5) - 3 = -7

---

(X/5) - 3 = -7

(X/5) = -4

X = -20

===

See if this works:

3 less than the quotient of -20 and 5 is -7

(-20/5) = -4

Three kless than -4 is -7: It works

Answer:

The answer is " $\frac{5 e^{5\sqrt{x} }}{2\sqrt{x}}$ ".

Step-by-step explanation:

Given:

$y = e^{{\color{\red}5}\sqrt{x}}$

let

$\to t= 5\sqrt{x}\\\\\frac{dt}{dx}= 5 \frac{1}{2\sqrt{x}}\\\\\frac{dt}{dx}= \frac{5}{2\sqrt{x}}\\\\$

and

$\to y=e^t\\\\\to \frac{dy}{dt}=e^t\\$

$\to \frac{dy}{dt}=e^{5\sqrt{x} }\\$

So,

$\to \frac{dy}{dx}= \frac{dy}{dt} \times \frac{dt}{dx}$

$=e^{5\sqrt{x} }\times \frac{5}{2\sqrt{x}}\\\\= \frac{5 e^{5\sqrt{x} }}{2\sqrt{x}}$

$\to g(x) = 5\sqrt{x} \\\\\to f(x) = e^{(x)}\\\\$

Derivate:

$\to f''g' = \frac{e^{(5\sqrt{x})}5}{(2\sqrt{x})}$
