For this case we have the following expression:

$y = A (b) ^ x$

Where,

A: initial value
b: rate of change
x: number of years
y: future value

Therefore, replacing values we have:

$y = 12050 * (0.88) ^ 9\\y = 3813.56$

Answer:

The boat will be worth after 9 years about:

B $ 3,813.56

B $3,813.56 is the correct answer

1 year = $10,604
2 years = $9,331.52
3 years = $8,211.74
4 years = $7,226.33
5 years = $6,359.17
6 years = $5,596.07
7 years = $4,924.54
8 years = $4,333.60
9 years = $3,813.56

A ladder leans against the side of a house. The angle of elevation of the ladder is 64 degrees

ValentinkaMS [17]

Answer:

The length of the ladder is 14.5 ft

Step-by-step explanation:

For a right triangle

sinx = opposite / hypotenuse

Since we know the angle and the opposite side, we can calculate the hypotenuse

sin 64 = 13/ hypotenuse

Multiply each side by the hypotenuse

hypotenuse * sin 64 = 13

Divide by sin 64

hypotenuse = 13/sin 64

hypotenuse=14.4638

How to reduce into simpler terms.?

Sveta_85 [38]

Answer:

The simplest form of the fraction $\frac{45}{100}$ is $\frac{9}{20}$ .

i.e.

$\frac{45}{100}=\frac{9}{20}$

Step-by-step explanation:

Here are some simple observations regarding how to reduce a fraction into simpler terms:

A fraction is reduced to lowest or simplest terms by finding an equivalent fraction in which the numerator and denominator are as small as possible.

In order to reduce a fraction to lowest or simplest terms, divide the numerator and denominator by their (GCF). Note that (GCF) is also called Greatest Common Factor .

So, lets take a sample fraction and reduce into simpler terms.

Considering the fraction

$\frac{45}{100}$

$\mathrm{Find\:a\:common\:factor\:of\:}45\mathrm{\:and\:}100\mathrm{\:in\:order\:to\:cancel\:it\:out}$

$\mathrm{Greatest\:Common\:Divisor\:of\:}45,\:100:\quad 5$

$\mathrm{Factor\:out\:}5\mathrm{\:from\:the\:numerator\:and\:the\:denominator}$

$45=5\cdot \:9\mathrm{,\:\quad }100=5\cdot \:20$

$\frac{45}{100}=\frac{5\cdot \:\:9}{5\cdot \:\:20}$

$\mathrm{Cancel\:the\:common\:factor:}\:5$

$=\frac{9}{20}$

Therefore, the simplest form of the fraction $\frac{45}{100}$ is $\frac{9}{20}$ .

i.e.

$\frac{45}{100}=\frac{9}{20}$

Answer:

The space inside the box = 2197 in³ - 1436.76 in³ is 760.245 in³.

Step-by-step explanation:

Here we have the volume of the cube box given by the following relation;

Volume of cube = Length. L × Breadth, B × Height, h

However, in a cube Length. L = Breadth, B = Height, h

Therefore, volume of cube = L×L×L = 13³ = 2197 in³

Volume of the basketball is given by the volume of a sphere as follows;

Volume = $\frac{4}{3} \pi r^3$

Where:

r = Radius = Diameter/2 = 14/2 = 7in

∴ Volume of the basketball = $\frac{4}{3} \times \pi \times 7^3 = 1436.76 \ in^3$

Therefore, the space inside the box that is not taken up by the basketball is found by subtracting the volume of the basketball from the volume of the cube box, thus;

The space inside the box = 2197 in³ - 1436.76 in³ = 760.245 in³.
