The value of a car after t years can be found using the formula V = C(1 - r)t, where V is the current value of the car, C is the

original price of the car, and r is the rate of depreciation. Solve the formula for r . Raj bought a car 4.5 years ago for $25,000, and the current value of the car is $12,000. At what percentage rate has the car depreciated? Round your answer to the nearest whole number.

The given formula is
V = C(1-r)^{t}

Therefore
(1-r)^{t} =  \frac{V}{C} \\\\ 1-r = ( \frac{V}{C} )^{1/t} \\\\ r = 1 - ( \frac{V}{C} )^{1/t}

Given:
C = $25,000
V = $12,000
t = 4.5 years

C/V = 0.48
1/t = 0.2222
Therefore
r = 1 - 0.48^{0.2222} = 0.1505 = 15.05\%

Answer: 15% (nearest integer)

-30=5(x+1)−30=5(x+1) proszę szybką odpowiedź :)
den301095 [7]

Answer:

x = -7

Step-by-step explanation:

The given equation is :

-30=5(x+1)

We need to solve the equation.

Use associative property on RHS.

-30 = 5x+5

Subtract 5 from both the sides.

-30-5 = 5x+5-5

-35 = 5x

x = -7

Hence, the value of x is -7.
