<span>Let the cost of 2-scoop cones be x, and the cost of sundaes be y.
The first statement tells us that 5x = 3y
The second statement tells us that 9x + 6y = 19.95
Then we need to calculate the value of y (the cost of a sundae).
From our first equation, y = 5x/3. Substituting this into the second equation:
9x + 6(5x/3) = 19.95
9x + 10x = 19.95
19x = 19.95
x = 1.05
Substituting back into the first equation: 5(1.05) = 3y
5.25 = 3y
y = 1.75
Therefore the cost of a sundae is $1.75.

Item 1 The value of a car is $23,000. It loses 11.1% of its value every year. Find the approximate monthly decrease in value. Ro
IrinaK [193]

Answer:

<h2>$212.8</h2>

Step-by-step explanation:

If the car loses 11.1% per year, we need to calculate how much money is that:

23,000\frac{11.1}{100} = 2,553.; this value is the lost per year.

Now, in order to calculate this loss per month, we divide it by 12:

\frac{2553}{12} =212.75

Hence, the monthly value decrease is $212.8, rounding it to the tenth.

Ted earned $4,300 from his summer internship that he plans to invest so that he can buy a used car after three years. Ted choose
olganol [36]

Answer: Yes he will be

Step-by-step explanation:

To find out if Ted can afford the car, find the future value of $4,300 in three years.

First convert the number of years and rates to quarterly values as this is the compounding period:

Term = 3 * 4 quarters = 12 quarters

Rate = 5.5% / 4 = 1.375% per quarter

Future value = Amount * ( 1 + rate) ^ term

= 4,300 * ( 1 + 1.375%)¹²

= $5,065.69

<em>Considering that Ted makes $5,065.69 in 3 years, he will be able to buy a car that costs $4,700.</em>
