Question

Pls help meeee!!! I have benchmarks monday

Answer 1

Answer:

therefore the correct options are:

B. the equation is an exponential decay equation.

F. $28000 represents the initial cost of an automobile that depreciates 27% per year  over the course of t years.

Step-by-step explanation:

i) the cost of an automobile is given by the equation is

 C(t) = $28000\times(0.73)^{t}$, where C(t) represents the cost and t represents the time in years

ii) the above equation is an exponential decay equation. It is a decay equation because growth rate is 0.73 which is less than 1 and greater than zero.

ii) when t = 0 then the cost is C(0) = 28000 represents the initial cost.

iii) from the equation in i) we can understand that the cost depreciates 27% per year over the course of t years.

therefore the correct options are:

B. the equation is an exponential decay equation.

F. $28000 represents the initial cost of an automobile that depreciates 27% per year  over the course of t years.
