Answer:

y=5,902,060*(.957)^t

Step-by-step explanation:

Since the original amount would be decreasing and it's an exponential one, hence the "every year", we can determine that it's an exponential decay equation.

The exponential delay equation is y=A*(1-r)^t. The y is the remaining amount, A is the original amount, r is the rate in decimal form, and t is for years. "1-r" is for decreasing rates and "1+r" is for increasing rates.

First thing we need to do is turn the rate, 4.3%, from a percentage to a decimal. You can do this by moving the decimal two places to the right, which gives you 0.043.

Now plug the numbers into the equation.

y=5,902,060*(1-0.043)^t

Simplify what's inside the parenthesis and get your final equation.

y=5,902,060*(.957)^t

2.) What is the value of V78 to the nearest tenth?
DENIUS [597]

Answer:

80.

Step-by-step explanation:

When multiplying if the tenth place is " 7" then we look " next door" which is the ones and 8 is great then 5 so we count to from 8 to see when the next number ending in 0 would be in this case its 80. ( if the number is 4 or less count backwards to a number ending with 0  which in that case would have been 70 ) but the answer is 80.
