Determine the value of a 10 year old car that costs $24,500 new and depreciates by 9% every year

son4ous [18]

First, we need to know how much the car depreciates each year. Multiply the price of the car by the percentage.

We can turn 9% into a decimal by moving the decimal point two places to the right.

9% = .09

24500 * .09 = 2205

Multiply the product by the amount of years you want to predict the price at.

2205 * 10 = 22050

Subtract that from the original price of the car.

24500 - 22050 = 2450

The value of a 10 year old car that costs $24500 and depreciates 9% every year will cost $2450.

Determine the solution set of (2x - 5)2 = 11.

zhenek [66]

I think what you meant was

(2x - 5)² = 11 -- (1)

Square root both sides of (1), i.e.

√(2x - 5)² = ± √11 -- (2)

From (2), we have

2x - 5 = ± √11 -- (3)

By adding 5 to both sides in (3), we have

2x = 5 ± √11 -- (4)

Divide both sides of (4) by 2, and we obtain

x = (5 ± √11)/2 -- (5)

From (5), the solution set of (1) is

x = (5 + √11)/2, (5 - √11)/2 ...Ans.

The perimeter of triangle RXA is 24. If RX = 4 and RA = 11, find XP and PA. A. XP = 1.5, PA = 7.5 B. XP = 2.4, PA = 6.6 C. XP =

mart [117]

The picture in the attached figure

we know that
RX+RA+XA=24
XA=24-RA-RX------> XA=24-11-4----> XA=9
XA=XP+PA
so
XP+PA=9------> XP=9-PA-----> equation 1

RX/XP=RA/PA

11*XP=4*PA-----> equation 2
substitute equation 1 in equation 2
11*[9-PA]=4*PA-----> 99-11*PA=4*PA----> 15*PA=99----> PA=99/15
PA=6.6
XP=9-PA-----> XP=9-6.6----> XP=2.4

the answer is the option
<span>B. XP = 2.4, PA = 6.6 </span>
