The formula for depreciation is:

y=x(1-r)^t

Where x = Initial value,

y= Amount after depreciation.

r= Rate of depreciation,

t = time (in years)

According to given problem,

x = 1040, y= 944 and t = 12 months =1 year.

So, first step is to plug in these values in the above formula, So,

944 = 1040(1-r)^1

944 = 1040 (1 -r)

\frac{944}{1040} =1-r Divide each sides by 1040.

0.907692308 =1 - r

0.907692308 - 1 = -r Subtract 1 from each sides.

-0.092307692 = -r

So, r = 0.09 or 9%.

Now plug in 0.09 in the above equation to get the depreciation equation. So,

y = x (1- 0.09)^t

So, y = 0.91x^t

b) To find the value of the bike after 5 months,

plug in t = 5 months= 5/12 = 0.41667 years in the above equation of depreciation.

So, y= 1040 *(0.91)^{0.41667}

y = 1040 * 0.961465659

y = 999.9242852

y = 1000 (Rounded to nearest integer).

Hence, the value of the bike after 5 months is $1000.

The lengths of the sides of a triangle are given below. Classify the triangle as acute, obtuse, or right.
abruzzese [7]

Answer:

  • A. Acute Triangle

Step-by-step explanation:

<u>Lets verify with Pythagorean:</u>

  • 17² = 289
  • 13² + 14² = 169 + 196 = 365
  • 289 < 365

The angle opposite to a greater side is less than 90° and the sum of the squares are close.

It means all three angles<u> are less than 90°</u>.

With this the triangle is <u>acute</u>.

Correct choice is A.
