A new car valued at $16500 depreciates at a steady rate of 20% per year. What is the value of the car in 15 years

So, we need to make an equation.
Since it is depreciating at 20%, it will be 80% of what it previously was.
The equation will be
16,500×0.8^x=y
X will be replaced by 15, so we can find what it is.
16,500×.035184372088832
≈580.54
So, the value of the car in 15 years will be $580.54.

The number of people increased by 2.

This means as a ratio it is now 6/4 as many as originally planned.

6/4 can be reduced to 3/2.

The time and the number of people are inversely proportional, so the food would last 2/3 ( inverse is flipping the original ratio over) the original length of time.

This means the length of time the food lasts is reduced by 1/3, which is 33.3%

Use this formula: $d= \sqrt{(x_{2}-x_{1})^2+(y_{2}-y_{1})^2 }$

a) d=11

Work:
d=sqrt((4-(-7))^2+(5-5)^2
d=sqrt((11)^2+(0)^2)
d=sqrt(121+0)
d=sqrt(121)
d=11

b) d=4

c) d = 16

d) d=160

e) d=12
