The value of a collector’s item is expected to increase exponentially each year. The item is purchased for $500. After 2 years,

the item is worth $551.25. Which equation represents y, the value of the item after x years?
y = 500(0.05)x
y = 500(1.05)x
y = 500(0.1025)x
y = 500(1.1025)x

Y = 500(1 + r)^x; where r is the rate and x is the number of years.
500(1 + r)^2 = 551.25
(1 + r)^2 = 551.25/500 = 1.1025
1 + r = sqrt(1.1025) = 1.05

Therefore, the equation that represents y, the value of the item after x years is
y = 500(1.05)^x

A park is in the shape of a rectangle. The park authorities are planning to build a 2-meter-wide jogging path in the park (shown
Burka [1]
First, we need to find the area of the two rectangles in this picture. We know that area = l*w.

So for the larger rectangle, we know the l = 100 m, and the w = 60 m. Let us find the area:

A=100*60=6000 m^{2}

So the larger rectangle area is 6000 m.

The smaller rectangle has dimensions that are 2 m less on every side. So we can recalculate these dimensions as l = 96 m and w = 56 m.

Let's find the area of the smaller rectangle:

A=96*56=5,376 m^{2}

So we know that the area of the smaller rectangle is 5,376 m.

The area of the jogging path is going to be the difference between these two rectangles. Let us solve:

6,000-5,376=624 m^{2}

So now we know that the area of the jogging path is 624 m^{2}.
