Answer:
(a) 20256.15625
(b) 17642.78546
Step-by-step explanation:
(a) There's a formula for this problem y = A(d)^t where, A is the initial value you are given, d is the growth or decay rate and t is the time period. So, in this case, as the car cost is decreasing it is a decay problem and we can write the formula as such; y = A(1-R)^t
So, in 5 years the car will be worth, 25500(1-4.5%)^5 or 20256.15625 dollars
(b) And after 8 years the car will be worth 25500(1-4.5%)^8 or 17642.78546 dollars.
Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
It's 5/7
You get that by having a calculator that does that. If you don't then the way to do it is multiply the numerator and denominator by 1.25
4 * 1.25 = 5
5.6 * 1.25 = 7
Answer:
The value of x that maximizes the volume enclosed by this box is 0.46 inches
The maximum volume is 3.02 cubic inches
Step-by-step explanation:
see the attached figure to better understand the problem
we know that
The volume of the open-topped box is equal to

where

substitute

Convert to expanded form

using a graphing tool
Graph the cubic equation
Remember that
The domain for x is the interval -----> (0,1)
Because
If x>1
then
the width is negative (W=2-2x)
so
The maximum is the point (0.46,3.02)
see the attached figure
therefore
The value of x that maximizes the volume enclosed by this box is 0.46 inches
The maximum volume is 3.02 cubic inches
Answer:
c > 9
Step-by-step explanation:
(2c/3) + 1 > 7 subtract 1 from both sides
2c/3 > 7 -1
2c/3 > 6 (multiply both sides by 3)
2c > 6(3)
2c>18 (divide both sides by 2)
c > 18 / 2
c > 9
