Answer:

V(t)=-19,000t+200,000

Step-by-step explanation:

Let V(t) be the value of machine after t years and t represents the number of years after 2010.

We are given the value in the beginning as 200,000. We are also given scrap value (value at the end of period) as 10,000.

So we need to find a linear function with points (0, 200000) and (10,10000)

Let us find slope of our line using our given points.

m=\frac{10,000-200,000}{10-0}

m=\frac{-190,000}{10}

m=-19,000

Since we know that the slope-intercept form of equation is in form: y=mx+b, where,

m = Slope of line,  

b = The y-intercept or initial value.

We can see that initial value of machine is $200,000, so substituting m=-19,000 and b = 200,000, we will get our equation as:

V(t)=-19,000t+200,000

Therefore, the equation V(t)=-19,000t+200,000 represents the the textile machine's book value in the th year of use.

Which equation is the inverse of y=2x^2-8
shusha [124]

Step-by-step explanation:

In order to get the inverse of equation, we will interchange the variables and solve for x and y as follows.

             y = 2x^{2} - 8

whereas,  y + 8 = 2x^{2}

    or              x = \sqrt{\frac{y+8}{2}}

Now, on interchanging the variable we will get the equation as follows.

               x = 2y^{2} - 8

               x + 8 = 2y^{2}

                     y = \sqrt{\frac{x+8}{2}}
