Answer:

$800,500 (nearest dollar)

Step-by-step explanation:

The given scenario can be modeled as an <u>exponential equation</u>.

<u>General form of an exponential function</u>:

 f(x)=ab^x

where:

  • a is the initial value (y-intercept)
  • b is the base (growth/decay factor) in decimal form
  • x is the independent variable
  • y is the dependent variable

If b > 1 then it is an increasing function

If 0 < b < 1 then it is a decreasing function

The initial value (a) is the value of the investment.

Therefore, a = 1,000,000.

If the investment <u>decreases</u> by 2.2% each year, then it will be 97.8% of the previous year.

Therefore, b = 97.8% = 0.978.

Substitute these values into the formula to create a general equation for the scenario:

f(x)=1000000(0.978)^x

(where x is the time, in years).

To find the value of the investment after 10 years, substitute x = 10 into the formula:

\implies f(10)=1000000(0.978)^{10}=800500.1586

Therefore, the value of the investment after 10 years is $800,500 (nearest dollar).

The sum of five consecutive multiples of 4 is 20.Find the smallest integer.
Aloiza [94]

Answer:

The smallest integer is -4.

Step-by-step explanation:

Let the smallest integer be x.

Since the integers are all multiples of 4, they are

=> x, x+4, x+8, x+12 and x+16

=> x + x+4 + x+8 + x+12 + x+16 = 20

=> 5x + 40 = 20

Subtract 40 from both sides of the equation

5x +40 - 40 = 20 - 40

5x = -20

Divide both sides by the coefficient of x(which is 5)

\frac{5x}{5} = \frac{-20}{5}

x = -4

∴ the smallest integer is -4.

Hope this helps!!!

Can someone walk me through the steps: Steve increases his math average by 9 points over a period of 15 weeks. How many points p
ozzi

hmmm units rates are just a matter of one above the other.

in this case is points/week.

9/15  points/weeks, we can just divide 9 ÷ 15 = 0.6, or 3/5.

so 0.6 points/weeks.
