So for this problem, we will be using the exponential equation format, which is y = ab^x. The a variable is the initial value, and the b variable is the growth/decay.
Since our touchscreen starts off at a value of 1200, that will be our a variable.
Since the touchscreen is decaying in value by 25%, subtract 0.25 (25% in decimal form) from 1 to get 0.75. 0.75 is going to be your b variable.
In this case, time is our independent variable. Since we want to know the value 3 years from now, 3 is the x variable.
Using our info above, we can solve for y, which is the cost after x years.
In context, after 3 years the touchscreen will only be worth $506.
Answer:5
Step-by-step explanation:
Answer:
y = 1
Step-by-step explanation:
Passes through (6,-1)(6,-1)
Find the slope (m)
m=(y2 - y1) / (x2 - x1)
m=(-1 - (-1) ) / (6-6)
m= 0
Parallel to x - 3y = 3
-3y = -x +3
y = 1/3 x -1
Equation of the line equation is y - y1 = m ( x - x1 )
y - ( -1 ) = 0 ( x - 6 )
y + 1 = 0
y = 1
Answer:
a
Step-by-step explanation:
240
For this case we have that the complete question is:
There were 20 drinks in a cooler. Joey drank 15% of the drinks. Sandra drank 1/5 of the drinks. Hannah drank 1/4 of the drinks. Tammy drank 30% of the drinks. How many drinks are left in the cooler? a 0 b 2 c 5 d 9
We propose a rule of three:
20 ---------> 100%
x ------------> 15%
Where the variable "x" represents the amount of drinks equivalent to 15%.
So, Joey drank 3 drinks.
On the other hand, we have that Sandra drank 
of the drinks:
Thus, Sandra drank 4 drinks.
In addition, Hannah drank
of the drinks:
So Hannah drank 5 drinks.
Finally, Tammy drank 30% of the drinks:
20 ---------> 100%
y ------------> 30%
Where the variable "y" represents the amount of drinks equivalent to 30%.
So Tammy drank 6 drinks.
Adding up we have:
So: 
Thus, 2 drinks remain in the refrigerator.
