Let the value of the vehicle be described by the equation
V = a + bx
where x = number of years since purchase
a,b are constants.

When x = 0, V = $7500. Therefore
a + b*0 = 7500
a = 7500

When x = 7, V = $500. Therefore
7500 + 7b = 500
7b = 500 -7500 = -7000
b = -7000/7 = -1000

The equation is
V = 7500 - 1000x

The slope of this equation is the depreciation rate, and it is -$1000 per year.

Answer: $1000 depreciation per year.

Each year Lizzie’s school purchases student agenda books, which are sold in the school store. This year, the school purchased 35

Stells [14]

The school can charge $7.54 for each agenda book.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given,

Purchase price of 350 books = $1137.50

Profit they want to make = $1500

Total amount = 1137.50 + 1500 = $2637.50

Therefore;

The school must sell 350 books for $2637.50

Thus,

350 books = 2637.50 dollars

1 book = $\frac{2637.50}{350}$

1 book = $7.535

Rounding off to nearest cent

1 book = $7.54

The school can charge $7.54 for each agenda book.

Given: x - 5 > -2. Choose the solution set. {x | x R, x > -7} {x | x R, x > -3} {x | x R, x > 3} {x | x R, x > 7}

sweet-ann [11.9K]

Answer:

{x | x ∈ R, x > 3}

Step-by-step explanation:

We are given the following inequality:

x - 5 > -2

In order to find the solution, we have to isolate the x on one side. This can be done by adding 5 to both sides of the inequality as shown below:

x - 5 + 5 > -2 + 5

x > 3

So the solution of the inequality is set of all numbers where x > 3. This is represented by 3rd option.

So, {x | x ∈ R, x > 3} is the answer.
