The value of the car after three years is £6936

<h3>How to determine the value of the car?</h3>

The initial value of the car is given as:

Value = £12000

When the value depreciates by 20% after the first year, the new value of the car is:

New = £12000 * (1 - 20%)

Evaluate

New = £9600

When the value depreciates by 15% after the second year, the new value of the car is:

New = £9600* (1 - 15%)

Evaluate

New = £8160

When the value depreciates by 15% after the third year, the new value of the car is:

New = £8160 * (1 - 15%)

Evaluate

New = £6936

Hence, the value of the car after three years is £6936

Please solve and show your work: (-4m^9+2m^7-14m^6)÷2m^3

katrin2010 [14]

The first step for solving this expression is to write the division as a fraction.
$\frac{-4m^{9}+2 m^{7} -14 m^{6} }{2}$ × m³
Factor out 2 from the numerator (top) of the fraction.
$\frac{2(-2 m^{9} + m^{7}-7 m^{6} ) }{2}$ × m³
Reduce the fraction with 2.
(-2 $m^{9}$ + $m^{7}$ - 7 $m^{6}$ )m³
Lastly,, distribute m³ through the parenthesis to get your final answer.
-2 $m^{12}$ + $m^{10}$ - 7 $m^{9}$
Let me know if you have any further questions.

If you can buy 1⁄3 of a pound of salami for 5 dollars, how much can you purchase for 9 dollars? Write your answer as a fraction

Degger [83]

Use this formula:

$5 = $9 then cross multiply 5x= 0.33 x 9
____ _____ You get 5x = 2.97 pounds
<span>0.33 pounds X pounds</span> Then you solve for X.
Divide both sides by 5.
You get 0.594 pounds. Written as a fraction it becomes 59/100 or simply 6/10.
