Answer:


6500 new comments will appear on the website at the end of the next day

Explanation:

Given the music video website receives
5,000 comments on a new song they released.

Also, after the performance on television, the number of comments increased by
30 %.

So, increased comments are
30 % of
5,000


=5,000*(30)/(100)\\\\=1,500

Now, the total number of comments by the end of the next day will be.

Comments on new song release
+ Increased comments


=5,000+1500\\\\=6,500\ Comments
