The answer is B i had this problem.
Hey there!
2(p + 1) + 8(p - 1) = 5p
2(p) + 2(1) + 8(p) + 8(-1) = 5p
2p + 2 + 8p - 8 = 5p
10p - 6 = 5p
SUBTRACT 5p to BOTH SIDES
10p - 6 - 5p = 5p - 5p
SIMPLIFY IT!
5p - 6 = 0
ADD 6 to BOTH SIDES
5p - 6 + 6 = 0 + 6
CANCEL out: -6 + 6 because it gives you 0
KEEP: 0 + 6 because it helps solve for the p-value
5p = 0 + 6
5p = 6
DIVIDE 5 to BOTH SIDES
5p/5 = 6/5
CANCEL out: 5/5 because it gives you 1
KEEP: 6/5 because gives you the result of the p-value
SIMPLIFY IT!
p = 6/5
Therefore, your answer is: p = 6/5
Good luck on your assignment and enjoy your day!

Answer:
The function to determine the value of your car (in dollars) in terms of the number of years t since 2012 is:
Step-by-step explanation:
Value of the car:
Constant rate of change, so the value of the car in t years after 2012 is given by:
In which f(0) is the initial value and r is the decay rate, as a decimal.
In 2012 your car was worth $10,000.
This means that , thus:
2014 your car was worth $8,850.
2014 - 2012 = 2, so:
We use this to find 1 - r.
Thus
