I really had to do mental math this would be my thought process

$100, eight percent of if would be 8 dollars

Then I'll figure out how much is ten percent of $10 which is $0.8 and add 0.8 + 0.8 together to get 8 percent of $20

Then I'll add it all together

8 + 1.6 = 9.6

120 + 9.6 = $129.6

If you can do this mentally then do this equation below

120 x 1.08 = $129.6

A cell phone costs $750 and loses 28% of its value each year. What is the value of the phone after 2 years?
Kamila [148]

Answer:

Initial costs 750 and loses .28 of value each year, so still worth 1-.28=.72 of value at start of next year. 750*(.72)^n is the value after n years since for n=0, new, it is 750*.72^0=750*1=750, and after 1 year it is worth 750*.72^1=750*.72 means it lost 28% value after one year. If you with to express it as an exponential exp(..) you need to convert the .72^n into exp(log(.72)*n)=exp(-.3285*n) so you get

750*exp(-.3285*n) as the value after n years.

SSSSS [86.1K]

Answer:

So the mean of 263,240,256 is 253 and the mean of 12,13,17 is 14

Step-by-step explanation:

To get the mean of these numbers you add all three of them together then you divide them by the amount of numbers so you are going to add 263+240+256=759 then you divide by 3

759 \div 3 = 253
