Answer:

Option D.The decrease in the value of the car, which is 8%

Step-by-step explanation:

we have a exponential function of the form

f(x)=a(b)^{x}

where

y is the value of the car

x is the time in years

a is the initial value

b is the base

r is the rate of decrease

b=1+r

In this problem we have

a=$24,000 initial value of the car

b=0.92

so

0.92=1+r

r=0.92-1=-0.08=-8%-----> is negative because is a rate of decrease

Answer:

D.The decrease in the value of the car, which is 8%​

Step-by-step explanation:

Since, in the exponential function,

f(x)=ab^x

a is the initial value,

b is the growth ( if > 1 ) or decay factor ( if between 0 and 1 ),

Here, the given equation that shows the value of car after x years,

f(x)=24000(0.92)^x

By comparing,

b = 0.92 < 1

Thus, 0.92 is the decay factor that shows the decrease in the value of car,

∵ Decay rate = 1 - decay factor

= 1 - 0.92

= 0.08

= 8%

Hence, the value of car is decreasing with the rate of 8%.

Option 'D' is correct.

Answer:

28

Step-by-step explanation:

Since, Sum of triangle is equal to 180°

180 = 2x + 50 + 3x - 10

180 = 5x + 40

180 - 40 = 5x

140 = 5x

140/5 = x

28 = x
