Car 1: It is an exponential function that is given as P = 18,500 (0.9595)ⁿ and the price after 10 years is $12,235.5.

Car 2: It is a linear function that is given as 2000x + 3y = 55500 and the price after 10 years is $11,833.33.

And Yes, there is a significant difference.

<h3>What is a function?</h3>

A function is a statement, rule, or law that establishes the connection between two variables. In mathematics, functions are everywhere and are necessary for constructing physical connections.

Baxter is thinking about buying a car. The table below shows the projected value of two different cars for three years.

Car 1 (value in dollars)

Year 1: 18,500

Year 2: 17,390

Year 3: 16,346.60

Car 2 (value in dollars)

Year 1: 18,500

Year 2: 17,500

Year 3: 16,500

The exponential function describes car 1.

Then the function will be

\rm P = 18500\times (0.95995)^n

The linear function describes car 2.

\rm y \ - \ 18500 = \dfrac{-2000}{3}(x - 0)\\\\\\3y - 55500 = -2000x\\\\\\2000x +3y = 55500

Then the value of the car 1 after 10 years will be

\rm P = 18500\times (0.95995)^{10}\\\\\\P = \$ \ 12,235.5

Then the value of the car 2 after 10 years will be

\rm 2000 \times 10 +3y = 55500\\\\y =  \$ \ 11,833.33

Yes, there is a significant difference.

What is the vertex of y = x2 + 2x +2<br> O (1,-1)<br> O (2,-2)<br> O (1, 2)<br> 0 (-1, 1)
fredd [130]

Answer:

vertex = (- 1, 1 )

Step-by-step explanation:

Given a parabola in standard form

y = ax² + bx + c ( a ≠ 0 )

Then the x- coordinate of the vertex is

x = - \frac{b}{2a}

y = x² + 2x + 2 ← is in standard form

with a = 1 and b = 2 , then

x = - \frac{2}{2} = - 1

substitute x = - 1 into the equation for y- coordinate of vertex

y = (- 1)² + 2(- 1) + 2 = 1 - 2 + 2 = 1

vertex = (- 1, 1 )

A box with a rectangular base and open top must have a volume of 128 f t 3 . The length of the base is twice the width of base.
noname [10]

Answer:

Width = 4ft

Height = 4ft

Length = 8ft

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

Volume = 128ft^3

L = 2W

Base\ Cost = \$9/ft^2

Sides\ Cost = \$6/ft^2

Required

The dimension that minimizes the cost

The volume is:

Volume = LWH

This gives:

128 = LWH

Substitute L = 2W

128 = 2W * WH

128 = 2W^2H

Make H the subject

H = \frac{128}{2W^2}

H = \frac{64}{W^2}

The surface area is:

Area = Area of Bottom + Area of Sides

So, we have:

A = LW + 2(WH + LH)

The cost is:

Cost = 9 * LW + 6 * 2(WH + LH)

Cost = 9 * LW + 12(WH + LH)

Cost = 9 * LW + 12H(W + L)

Substitute: H = \frac{64}{W^2} and L = 2W

Cost =9*2W*W + 12 * \frac{64}{W^2}(W + 2W)

Cost =18W^2 +  \frac{768}{W^2}*3W

Cost =18W^2 +  \frac{2304}{W}

To minimize the cost, we differentiate

C' =2*18W +  -1 * 2304W^{-2}

Then set to 0

2*18W +  -1 * 2304W^{-2} =0

36W - 2304W^{-2} =0

Rewrite as:

36W = 2304W^{-2}

Divide both sides by W

36 = 2304W^{-3}

Rewrite as:

36 = \frac{2304}{W^3}

Solve for W^3

W^3 = \frac{2304}{36}

W^3 = 64

Take cube roots

W = 4

Recall that:

L = 2W

L = 2 * 4

L = 8

H = \frac{64}{W^2}

H = \frac{64}{4^2}

H = \frac{64}{16}

H = 4

Hence, the dimension that minimizes the cost is:

Width = 4ft

Height = 4ft

Length = 8ft
