<h3>
Answer: Approximately 6.58 years old</h3>
The more accurate value is 6.57881347896059, which you can round however you need. I picked two decimal places.
==================================================
Explanation:
Let's pick a starting value of the car. It doesn't matter what the starting value, but it might help make the problem easier. Let's say A = 1000. Half of that is 1000/2 = 500.
So we want to find out how long it takes for the car's value to go from $1000 to $500 if it depreciates 10% per year.
The value of r is r = 0.10 as its the decimal form of 10%
t is the unknown number of years we want to solve for
---------------------------
y = A(1 - r)^t
500 = 1000(1 - 0.1)^t
500 = 1000(0.9)^t
1000(0.9)^t = 500
0.9^t = 500/1000
0.9^t = 0.5
log( 0.9^t ) = log( 0.5 )
t*log( 0.9 ) = log( 0.5 )
t = log( 0.5 )/log( 0.9 )
t = 6.57881347896059
Note the use of logs to help us isolate the exponent.
Answer:
h(x) = |x+10|---------------------------------------------------------
Explanation:
To shift the graph 10 units to the left, we replace x with x+10. What's really going on is that the xy axis shifts 10 units to the right (because x is now x+10; eg, x = 2 ---> x+10 = 2+10 = 12) so it appears that the graph is moving to the left. The general rule is h(x) = g(x+10).
So,
g(x) = |x|
g(x+10) = |x+10| ... every x has been replaced with x+10
h(x) = g(x+10)
h(x) = |x+10|
We can use a graphing tool like GeoGebra to visually confirm we have the right answer (see attached). Note how a point like (0,0) on the green graph moves to (-10,0) on the red graph.
Answer:
1. f(0) = 501170
2. decreasing
3. 2% decrease
4. 302438
Step-by-step explanation:
In 1995 x=0
f(x) = 501170(0.98)^0
f(0) = 501170
The population is decreasing since we are multiplying by .98 ^x
.98 is less than 1 so it is getting smaller each time.
1 -.98 = .02
It is decreasing by 2 % each year
2020-1995 =25 years
f(25) = 501170(0.98)^25
=302438.41862
Rounding to the nearest whole number
302438
Answer:
4(n+2)-1
Step-by-step explanation:
It says 1 less than 4 times of a sum of a number and 2. This indicated parenthesis (n+2)
so 4 times (n+2)
4(n+2)
It says one less of 4(n+2)
4(n+2)-1
