28.6 / 89.4 = 0.75 / x
cross multiply
28.6x = 67.05
x = 67.05 / 28.6

Marcos purchased a sail boat for $56,900. He anticipates each year the boat will decrease in value by 8.1% from the previous yea
Varvara68 [4.7K]

Answer: 56,900\left( 0.919\right)^x

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

Marcos purchased a sailboat for \$56,900

Each year the boat will decrease in value by 8.1\%

After 1 year it is

\Rightarrow 56,900-56,900\times 0.081\\\Rightarrow 56,900\left( 1-0.081\right)\\

after another year it becomes

\Rightarrow 56,900\left( 1-0.081\right)-56,900\left( 1-0.081\right)\times 0.081\\\Rightarrow 56,900\left( 1-0.081\right)\cdot \left( 1-0.081\right)\\\Rightarrow 56,900\left( 1-0.081\right)^2

After x years it is

\Rightarrow 56,900\left( 1-0.081\right)^x

\Rightarrow 56,900\left( 0.919\right)^x

I need help with answering the following questions. :/ :)
s344n2d4d5 [400]

Answer:

  a) (0, ∞)

  b) (-∞, ∞)

  c) x = 0

Step-by-step explanation:

It helps to have some idea what the log function is.

__

a) The domain is all positive numbers: (0, ∞).

b) The range is all real numbers: (-∞, ∞). (The vertical translation downward by 5 units does not change that.)

c) There is a vertical asymptote where the argument of the log function is zero: at x=0.
