Answer:

g(t) = 10000(0.938)^t

Step-by-step explanation:

Given data:

car worth is $10,000 in 2012

car worth is $8000 in 2014

let linear function is given as

P(t) = at + b

which denote the value of car in year t

take t =0 for year 2012

at t =0, 10,000 = 0 + b

we get b = 10,000

take t =2 for year 2014

at t =2, P(2) = 2a + b

8800 = 2a + 10,000

a = - 600

Thus the price of car at year t after 2012 is given as p(t) = -600t + 10000

let the exponential function p(t)  =ab^2 where t denote t = 0 at 2012

putting t = 0 P(0) = 10,000 we get 10,000 = ab^0

a = 10,000

putting t = 2 p = 8800

8800 =ab^2

b^2 = \frac{8800}{10000}

b = 0.938

g(t) = 10000(0.938)^t

11. Little Sally Walker has a choice between going to an in-state college where she would pay
nalin [4]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Lets calculate first for in state college

yearly tuition fees = $3,500

monthly living expense = $700

one year has 12 months so yearly living expense =$700 * 12 = $8,400

Yearly expense of the in state college = yearly tuition fees ($3,500 )+ yearly living expense($8,400)   = $3,500 + $8,400  = $11,900

____________________________________________________

Lets calculate first for  out of state college

yearly tuition fees = $6,000

monthly living expense = $400

one year has 12 months so yearly living expense =$400 * 12 = $4,800

Yearly expense of the out of state college = yearly tuition fees ($3,500 )+ yearly living expense($8,400)   = $6,000 + $4,800  = $10,800
