There are 1,444 souvenir paperweights that need to be packed in boxes. Each box will hold 15 paperweights. How many boxes will be needed

96.267

Step-by-step explanation:

There are 1,444 paperweights and one box will hold 15 paperweights

So you will divide 1,444 by 15, which would give you 96.267

So you would need 96 boxes and an extra box, which won't be full holding 4 paper weights

probably .5

i can on others if necessary.

the solution of the equation is 2.23 ⇒ answer b

step-by-step explanation:

* lets revise the meaning of exponential function

- the form of the exponential function is y = ab^x, where a ≠ 0, b > 0 ,  

  b ≠ 1, and x is any real number

- it has a constant base b

- it has a variable exponent x

- to solve an exponential equation, take the log or ln of both sides,  

  and solve for the variable

* lets solve the problem

∵

- the base is 7 and the exponent is x

- insert ㏑ in both sides

∴

- use the rule

∴ x ㏑(7) = ㏑(77)

- to find x divide both sides by ㏑(7)

∴

* the solution of the equation is 2.23 to the nearest 2 decimal places
