Answer:

a. The value of the car will be $18,195.25

b. (i) 2.5 hours

(ii) 25 problems each

Step-by-step explanation:

a. To calculate the value of the car after four years, what we shall use is the exponential formula below;

F = PV( 1 - r)^t

where F is the value at year 4

PV is the present price = $29,000

r is the rate = 11% = 11/100 = 0.11

t is the time = 4 years

Substituting these values, we have;

F = 29,000(1-0.11)^4 = 29000(0.89)^4 = $18,195.25

The value of the car when he graduates will be $18,195

b. Let the number of hours it will take for both to have written the same number if problems

be x

For Ms B, the number of problems she would have written at that time will be 10 + 6(x)

For Ms D , the number of problems will be 10 * x = 10x

To get the time it will take for both to write same number of problems, we will need to equate the number of problems they would have written by hour x

Hence;

10 + 6x = 10x

10x-6x = 10

4x = 10

x = 10/4 = 2.5 hours

The number of problems would be;

For Ms B = 6(2.5) + 10 = 15 + 10 = 25

For Ms D = 10(2.5) = 25

They both would have written 25 problems at that time

Which equation using x to represent time best represents the floor number of an elevator descending at a steady rate?
zepelin [54]
C. You'd be starting at a higher floor (positive number) and descending floors (negative number per x). If you assume x is time it's a little more logical and visual.

Jay ate 2/3 of a pizza. Dan ate 4 times the amount of jay ate . How much did dan eat
erica [24]

Answer:

Dan eat 2\frac{2}{3} pizzas

Step-by-step explanation:

Let

x-----> amount of pizza Jay ate

y-----> amount of pizza Dan ate

we know that

x=\frac{2}{3} ----> equation A

y=4x -----> equation B

substitute equation A in the equation B and solve for y

y=4(\frac{2}{3})=\frac{8}{3}

Convert to mixed number

\frac{8}{3}=\frac{6}{3}+\frac{2}{3}=2\frac{2}{3}
