Answer:

24/25 walls per gallon

Step-by-step explanation:

to get per gallon, we want gallon to be zero.

5/8 gallon of paint: 3/5 of wall

multiply by 8/5 on both sides

1 gallon: 24/25 of wall

24/25 walls per gallon.

First of all, we can just ignore A, it has no effect but to vertically stretch our cosine.

If it was only $f(x)=cosx$ , the function would be invertible as long as it's confined between $0$ and $\pi$ . Now, the argument of our cosine is not $x$ but $bx$ . It means that it won't stop at $\pi$ , but at $\frac{\pi}{b}$ .

Another way to think about it, "what should i replace x with so I get $\pi$ inside the cosine?"

Step-by-step explanation:

hihi, so this is a classic interest rate problem. It's not too bad if you know your properties of e and ln. After establishing the base equation you can divide by 100 then take the natural log of both sides to "get rid" of the e and finally end it by dividing by 10 to isolate r.
