In a hotel, 40 people occupy excatly 26 rooms. Each room is occupied by either one or two people. How many rooms are occupied by exactly one person?

Explanation:

Let's say that the first 26 people will occupy each of the 26 rooms. This means that, so far, there's one person per room.

There are 40-26 = 14 people left. Let's say those 14 people occupy the first 14 rooms. This means that the first 14 rooms now have 2 people in them per room. The remaining 26-14 = 12 rooms still have one person per room.

the answer is:

the correct option:

b.

to solve the problem, we need to remember how to operate to simplify exponential expressions using the logarithms.

we are given the equation:

then, using placing logarith with base 7 on both sides of the equation, we have:

so, rounding the obtained result to two decimal places (nearest hundreth), we have:

hence, we have that the correct option:

b.

have a nice day!
