Answer:
Option D.The decrease in the value of the car, which is 8%
Step-by-step explanation:
we have a exponential function of the form

where
y is the value of the car
x is the time in years
a is the initial value
b is the base
r is the rate of decrease
b=1+r
In this problem we have
a=$24,000 initial value of the car
b=0.92
so
0.92=1+r
r=0.92-1=-0.08=-8%-----> is negative because is a rate of decrease
Answer:
f(x) = 1/2(4 - x)(x - 1)(x - 2)
Step-by-step explanation:
Considering zero's and a coefficient, the function is:
f(x) = a(x - 4)(x - 1)(x - 2)
Considering y-intercept:
f(0) = a(0 - 4)(0 - 1)(0 - 2)
4 = a(-4)(-1)(-2)
4 = -8a
a = -1/2
So the function is:
f(x) = -1/2(x - 4)(x - 1)(x - 2) = 1/2(4 - x)(x - 1)(x - 2)
F(x) = x² + x - 20 = x² + 5x - 4x - 20 = x(x + 5) - 4(x + 5) = (x + 5)(x - 4)
f(x) = 0 ⇔ (x + 5)(x - 4) = 0 ⇔ x + 5 = 0 or x - 4 = 0 ⇒ x = -5 or x = 4
Answer: C. x = -5 and x = 4.
Answer:
Length is 15 inches
Width is 8 inches
Step-by-step explanation:
A = L*W
the Width = L-7
120 = L (L-7)
120 = L^2-7L
subtract 120 from each side
0 = L^2 - 7L - 120
(L-15) (L +8 )
so L = 15 inches
and W = 15-7 = 8 inches
check your answer: does 15*8 = 120? yes!
Answer:
a) 7 tiles
b)4 1/3 tiles*
Step-by-step explanation:
*you would need 5 tiles if the answer isn't supposed to be a fraction. 4 1/3 is the exact amount but if they are asking for whole tiles you need to put 5. since they didn't actually specifiy that i don't think you have to worry about it. i would go with 4 1/3 tiles
