Answer: $6,861.44
Step-by-step explanation:
Car was bought 3 years ago for $12,000.
Value decreases by 17% every year.
Current value is:
= 12,000 * (1 - 17%)³
= $6,861.44
Answer:
C. -1 is less than x
Step-by-step explanation:
-3 < 4x + 1
-3-1 < 4x +(1 -1)
-4 < 4x
-4/4 < 4x/4
-1 < x
Answer:
x = 4, x ≠ -1
Step-by-step explanation:
√3x + 4 = x
(√3x + 4)² = x² (Square both sides to get rid of the radical.)
3x + 4 = x²
0 = x² - 3x - 4 (Set everything to 0 by moving everything to one side.)
0 = (x - 4)(x + 1) (Factor.)
x = 4 x = -1
Now we need to check for extraneous solutions:
√3(4) + 4 = 4
√12 + 4 = 4
√16 = 4
4 = 4
√3(-1) + 4 = -1
√-3 +4 = -1
√1 = -1
1 ≠ -1
-1 is an extraneous solution.
First you want to change the fractions to the same denominator
3/4 = 9/12 and 2/3 = 8/12
then you put it in ratio form...
the answer is 9:8
