Answer:
A used car has a value of $15,250 when it is purchased in 2012. The value of the car decreases at a rate of 7.5% per year.
Write an exponential function that models the value of the car, y, over x years.
To the nearest cent, what will be the value of the car after eight years?
Step-by-step explanation:
The expressions for the payment made to Mary are,
(Monday) 90 = 15m + b
(Tuesday) 62 = 8m + b
where m and b are the fee per student and the base fee, respectively. Solving for m and b, the values are 4 and 30.
The equation that represents Mary's earning is
y = 4x + 30
For 20 students,
y = 4(20) + 30 = 110
For Lisa's earnings,
y = 8x + 15
Substituting 20,
y =8(20) + 15 = 175
Thus, Lisa would earn more than Mary by $65.
Answer:
i believe it is the 2nd one
Step-by-step explanation:
37.5 per hour because you divide 150 by 4 to get how much per hour
I worked the problem by hand. First I used the equation y=mx+b to find the rule for the function. To find m which is the same as the slope you use the change in y divided by the change in x. Or the change in output divided by the change in input. The two points or coordinates used were (-2,-4) and (1,-1). Once you have the slope you use y=mx+b and substitude y by any value of y (-4 or -1) and m is the slope calculated and x would be the corresponding x to the y value used (if -4 was chosen for y then -2 would be used for x). This will be used to calculate b.
