Answer:

h = 48

because 32 + 3h + 4 = 180

32 + 4 = 36

36 + 3h - 36 = 180 - 36

3h = 144

3h/3 = 144/3

h = 48

The price of a computer component is decreasing at a rate of 15% per year. State whether this decrease is linear or exponential

Margaret [11]

Answer:

Since the price is given by an exponential function, the decline in price is exponential.

The component will cost $36.8475 in three years.

Step-by-step explanation:

The equation for the price of a component has the following format:

$P(t) = P(0)(1-r)^{t}$

In which P(t) is the price after t years, P(0) is the initial price, and r is the rate that the price decreases.

Since the price is given by an exponential function, the decline in price is exponential.

The price of a computer component is decreasing at a rate of 15% per year.

This means that $r = 0.15$

Component costs $60 today

So P(0) = 60. Then

$P(t) = P(0)(1-r)^{t}$

$P(t) = 60(1-0.15)^{t}$

$P(t) = 60(0.85)^{t}$

What will it cost in three years?

This is P(3).

$P(t) = 60(0.85)^{t}$

$P(3) = 60(0.85)^{3} = 36.8475$

The component will cost $36.8475 in three years.

write an equation in slope intercept form for the line that is perpendicular to y=-1/4x+2 and passes through the points (-4,3)

PilotLPTM [1.2K]

For lines to be perpendicular their slopes must be negative reciprocals of one another, mathematically:

m1*m2=-1, and in this case:

-m/4=-1

-m=-4

m=4, so the slope of the perpendicular line is 4 so we have thus far:

y=4x+b, using point (-4,3) we can solve for the y-intercept, "b"

3=4(-4)+b

3=-16+b

19=b, so our line is:

y=4x+19

Solve for x.

Ivahew [28]

ANSWER

$x=\frac{2-\sqrt{10}} {3}$

or

$x=\frac{\sqrt{10}+2} {3}$

We have

$3x^2-4x-2=0$

Since we cannot factor easily, we complete the square.

Adding 2 to both sides give,

$3x^2-4x=2$

Dividing through by 3 gives

$x^2-\frac{4}{3}x= \frac{2}{3}$

Adding $(-\frac{2}{3})^2$ to both sides gives

$x^2-\frac{4}{3}x+(-\frac{2}{3})^2= \frac{2}{3}+(-\frac{2}{3})^2$

The expression on the Left Hand side is a perfect square.

$(x-\frac{2}{3})^2= \frac{2}{3}+\frac{4}{9}$

$\Rightarrow (x-\frac{2}{3})^2= \frac{10}{9}$

$\Rightarrow (x-\frac{2}{3})=\pm \sqrt{\frac{10}{9}}$

$\Rightarrow (x)=\frac{2}{3} \pm {\frac{\sqrt{10}}{3}$

Splitting the plus or minus sign gives

$x=\frac{2- \sqrt{10}} {3}$

or

$x=\frac{\sqrt{10}+2} {3}$
