You did not put the options but I assume that one of them is that the value of the car decreases linearly over time. You can see from the equation that the 24000 is the cost of the car. Every year the car value is reduced by 93%. The t represents the number of years the car has been owned. however the equation is a bit flawed. It it really should be
y =24000 - 24000 (.07)t.

that way the car has full value at the 0 year owned. if you plugged the 0 year,in the given equation it would be worth nothing when purchased. the equation I gave gives the 24000 starting value and subtracts the 7% value loss for each year. They are similar burn guess in your equation it should state that it is only when t > 0. i don't know though that is just nitpicking

2x2 − 1 = 3x + 4 Which equation correctly applies the quadratic formula?
NNADVOKAT [17]

Standard form: ax^2 + bx + c = y

Steps to simplify:

2x^2 - 1 = 3x + 4

~Subtract (3x + 4) to both sides

2x^2 - 1 - 3x + 4 = 3x + 4 - 3x + 4

~Simplify

2x^2 - 3x - 5 = 0

(a = 2, b = -3, c = -5)

Now that we know what these values are, we can use the quadratic formula to solve.

x=\frac{-b-+\sqrt{b^2-4ac} }{2a} \\x = \frac{-(-3)-+\sqrt{-3^2-4(2)(-5)} }{2(2)}\\x= \frac{-3-+\sqrt{49} }{4} \\x=\frac{3-+7}{4} \\x = \frac{10}{4}~or~\frac{-4}{4}  \\x=\frac{5}{2}~or~-1

Answer: x = 5/2 or x = -1

Best of Luck!

In Brownsville Texas it is 80°F the temperature is expected to drop 1.5° each hour in Mesquite Texas is 94°F and the temperature
denis-greek [22]

Answer:

28 hours

Step-by-step explanation:

let the time period at which the temperature be equal in both Brownsville and Mesquite Texas be 'x'.

Given,

In Brownsville Texas, the temperature is expected to drop 1.5° each hour and In Mesquite Texas, the temperature is expected to drop 2° each hour.

Now, according to the question,

after 'x' hours,

⇒ 80° - 1.5°(x) = 94° - 2°(x)

⇒ 0.5°(x) = 14°

⇒ x = 28

Hence, Till 28 more hours the temperature in Mesquite Texas be greater than that in Brownsville.

Well, at least you improved.  But maybe you should use another source besides brainly for your tests.  Sometimes people put the wrong answers just to get points.

I hope you do better next time!  Good luck!!

A person spends 1/5 of his salary on rent, 3/7 on food, 1/3 on other expenses and saves the rest. If she earns $21,000 per month
sukhopar [10]

Answer:

$9600 saving / year

Step-by-step explanation:

1/5 of $21000 = 21000 / 5 = $4200 / month on rent

3/7 of $21000 = (21000 / 7) x 3 = $9000 / month on food (shocking right :) food is expensive)

1/3 of $21000 = 21000 / 3 = $7000 on other expenses / month

total savings/month = salary/month - rent/month - food/month - other expenses/month

total savings/month = 21000 - 4200 - 9000 - 7000

total savings/month = $800

<u><em>BUT</em></u> the question asks for savings per year. therefore, we must multiply the savings per month by total months per year (12)

800 x 12 = $9600

the person's total savings per year, with a salary of $21000 per month, is equal to $9600 per year
