Answer:
<u>Part 1: C. $3,159.30</u>
<u>Part 2. C. –5; –135; –10,935</u>
Step-by-step explanation:
Part 1:
Price of the boat = $ 16,600
Depreciation rate = 14% = 0.14
Time of utilization of the boat = 11 years
Price of the boat after 11 years = Original price * (1 - Depreciation rate)^Time of utilization of the boat
Price of the boat after 11 years = 16,600 * (1 - 0.14)¹¹
Price of the boat after 11 years = 16,600 * 0.1903
<u>Price of the boat after 11 years = $ 3,159.30</u>
Part 2:
Let's find out the first term of the sequence given:
A(1) = -5 * 3¹⁻¹
A(1) = -5 * 1
A(1) = -5
Let's find out the fourth term of the sequence given:
A(4) = -5 * 3⁴⁻¹
A(4) = -5 * 3³
A(4) = -5 * 27
A(4) = -135
Let's find out the eighth term of the sequence given:
A(8) = -5 * 3⁸⁻¹
A(8) = -5 * 3⁷
A(8) = -5 * 2,187
A(8) = -10,935
Scalene I believe. Hope this helps!
Find out how much Alex earned in 35 hours first.
1 hour = $12.50
35 hours = $12.50 x 35 = $437.50
Since ‘time and a half’ pays 1.5 times more than their usual pay, find out how much Alex earned per hour at ‘time and a half’
1 hour = 12.50 x 1.5 = $18.75
5 hours = 18.75 x 5 = $93.75
$437.50 + $93.75 = $531.25
Alex would have earned $531.25 for the week.
I think that the correct one is the D.
