It's scientific notation, so 1.4x10^7 would be 14000000 <span />
The average between 12.00 and 15.00 seconds
can be defined in a few different ways.
Way #1: (speed)
Average speed =
(1/2) (the speed at 12 seconds + the speed at 15 seconds) .
Way #2: (speed)
Average speed =
(1/3) (the distance covered between 12.00 and 15.00 seconds)
Way #3: (velocity)
Average velocity =
(1/3) (distance between location at 12 sec and location at 15 sec)
in the direction from location at 12 sec to location at 15 sec.
That's the best we can do with the combination of given and
not given information in the question.
The formula for depreciation is:

Where x = Initial value,
y= Amount after depreciation.
r= Rate of depreciation,
t = time (in years)
According to given problem,
x = 1040, y= 944 and t = 12 months =1 year.
So, first step is to plug in these values in the above formula, So,

944 = 1040 (1 -r)
Divide each sides by 1040.
0.907692308 =1 - r
0.907692308 - 1 = -r Subtract 1 from each sides.
-0.092307692 = -r
So, r = 0.09 or 9%.
Now plug in 0.09 in the above equation to get the depreciation equation. So,

So, 
b) To find the value of the bike after 5 months,
plug in t = 5 months= 5/12 = 0.41667 years in the above equation of depreciation.
So, 
y = 1040 * 0.961465659
y = 999.9242852
y = 1000 (Rounded to nearest integer).
Hence, the value of the bike after 5 months is $1000.
