We have been given that Jackson purchases a new car for $48,000. The car's value can be modeled by the following exponential function:
where y represents the car's value and t represents time in years. We are asked to find the decay rate as a percentage.
We know that an exponential decay function is in form
, where,
y = Final value,
a = Initial value,
r = Decay rate in decimal form,
x = time.
Upon comparing our given function
with standard decay function
, we can see that
.
Let us solve for r.



Let us convert 0.24 into percentage.

Therefore, the decay rate is 24%.

Step-by-step explanation:
Associative property
Answer:
P.7500.00
Step-by-step explanation:
We are told that:
The ratio of Val's savings to Dan is 2:3 at first.
Now, Dan spent P3000.00 and Val's saving became 1⅓ more of that Dan's remaining savings.
Let's say the total amount of savings they had at first was x.
Thus;
Val had: 2x/5
Dan had: 3x/5
Now, Dan spent P3000.00.
So amount Dan has left = (3x/5) - 3000
We are told Val's savings is now 1⅓ = 4/3 times that of Dan's remaining savings
Thus; 2x/5 = (4/3)((3x/5) - 3000)
2x/5 = 12x/15 - 4000
Multiply through by 15 to get;
6x = 12x - (3000 × 15)
6x = 12x - 45000
Rearranging, we have;
12x - 6x = 45000
6x = 45000
x = 45000/6
x = P.7500
<span>Given:
f(0) = 2</span>
So first of all, we let x = 2012, y = 0:
<span>
Then, F(2012) = 2012 + f(0)
Since f(0) = 2, then f(2012) = 2012 + 2 = 2014.
To add, </span>the process that relates an input to an output is called a
function.
<span>There are always three main parts of a
function, namely:
</span>Input
The Relationship
The Output
The classic way of writing a function is
"f(x) = ... ".
What goes into the function
is put inside parentheses () after the name of the function: So, f(x) shows us the
function is called "f", and "x" goes in.
What a function does with the input can be usually seen as:
<span>f(x) = x2</span><span> reveals to us that function "f" takes "x<span>" and squares
it.</span></span>
