Answer:
A(x) = 20000(0.88)^x
Step-by-step explanation:
The general form of these exponential equations is ...
A(x) = a·b^x
where 'a' is the initial value, and b is the annual growth factor. x is the elapsed time in years.
The growth factor is ...
growth factor = 1 + growth rate
Here, the growth rate per year is -12%, so the growth factor is ...
b = 1 -12% = 88% = 0.88
Of course, the initial value is a=20,000, so the equation is ...
A(x) = 20000(0.88)^x
Yes I done it happy new year and a happy evening wish you a happy Christmas
Answer:
The height of the lighthouse is approximately 166.6 feet.
Step-by-step explanation:
Let the height of the lighthouse be represented by s, then;
Tan 48° = (opposite) ÷ (adjacent)
Tan 48° = s ÷ 150
⇒ s = 150 × Tan 48°
= 150 × 1.1106
= 166.59
s ≅ 166.6 feet
Therefore, the height of the lighthouse is approximately 166.6 feet.
To solve this equation , we need to write it in quadratic form
To get the equation in quadratic form we replace x^2 with u
can be written as
, Replace u for x^2
So equation becomes
Now we factor the left hand side
-16 and -1 are the two factors whose product is +16 and sum is -17
(u-16) (u-1) = 0
u -16 = 0 so u=16
u-1 =0 so u=1
WE assume u = x^2, Now we replace u with x^2
Now take square root on both sides , x= +4 and x=-4
Now take square root on both sides , x= +1 and x=-1
So zeros of the function are -4, -1, 1, 4
Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
let the consecutive even numbers be 2n-2,2n,2n+2,2n+4 where n>0 and n is an integer.
2n(2n+2)-(2n-2)(2n+4)
=4n²+4n-(4n²+8n-4n-8)
=4n²+4n-4n²-8n+4n+8
=8
