Step-by-step explanation:

d = the distance in one direction.

the time t1 it took group 1 was

t1 = d/6 + d/4

and t2 for group 2 moving with speed2 all the way

t2 = (d+d)/speed2

we know

2d = 24 miles

d = 12 miles

t1 = t2

so,

12/6 + 12/4 = 24/speed2

2 + 3 = 24/speed2

5 = 24/ speed2

5×speed2 = 24

speed2 = 24/5 = 4.8 mph

the second group moved with 4.8 mph.

You purchase a car in 2010 for $25,000. The value of the car decreases by 14% annually. What would the value of the car be in 20
Fed [463]

Answer: -$6,500

Step-by-step explanation:

Here we could , use the arithmetic progression where

T(2020 - 2010) = a + ( n - 1 )d

T10 = a + ( 10 - 1 )d --------------- 1

a = $25,000, n = 10 and d = 14% of $25,000 = $3,500 the common difference.

Note since it decreases the common difference d = -$3,500.

Now substitute for the values in the equation above.

T10 = 25,000 + 9 x -3,500

= $25,000 - $31,500

= -$6,500 (deficit )
