Well, you can divide both numbers by 6.
18/6=3
42/6=7.
You have the simplest form in the simplest way!!
Your answer is 3/7.

Answer:The value of the bulldozer after 3 years is $121950

Step-by-step explanation:

We would apply the straight line depreciation method. In this method, the value of the asset(bulldozer) is reduced linearly over its useful life until it reaches its salvage value. The formula is expressed as

Annual depreciation expense =

(Cost of the asset - salvage value)/useful life of the asset.

From the given information,

Useful life = 23 years

Salvage value of the bulldozer = $14950

Cost of the new bulldozer is $138000

Therefore

Annual depreciation = (138000 - 14950)/ 23 = $5350

The value of the bulldozer at any point would be V. Therefore

5350 = (138000 - V)/ t

5350t = 138000 - V

V = 138000 - 5350t

The value of the bulldozer after 3 years would be

V = 138000 - 5350×3 = $121950

This math promblem!!!!

1. You convert all the numbers into decimals.
a. For 8 1/9 you multiply 8x9 and add the numerator which in this case is one, so the equation would be 8x9=72 then 72+1= 73
b. For 81/10 I used a calculator for accuracy and I just divided 81 by 10 because the fraction line can also be used as a division sign. For this I got 8.1
2. Now I looked at all the numbers I had including the fractions I converted to decimals... 8.115, 8.55, 73, and 8.1
3. Lastly, I put the numbers in order from least to greatest: 8.1, 8.115, 8.55, and 73
4. In order to figure out which one is the smallest and largest, I just added zeros on the end of the numbers so they would all be the same: 8.1-->8.100, 8.115 I kept the same because it already had 3 decimal places, 8.55--> 8.550, and 73--> 73.000
5. Then i could tell which number was the largest by the decimal place numbers.
**Hope this was helpful... It's kind of hard to explain online but hopefully you have a better understanding of how to do it!**

Someone pleaseee help I’m struggling

spin [16.1K]

Step-by-step explanation:

(0,5) and (-2,-3)

y=mx+b

find m

$\frac{y1 - y2}{x1 - x2} \\ = \frac{5 - ( - 3)}{0 - ( - 2)} \\ = \frac{8}{2} \\ = 4 \\$

m=4

Substitute (0,5) or (-2,-3)

For easy processing substitute : (0,5)

y=4x+b

5=b

y=4x+5 is the answer

Brainliest please~

$\text{Hi there! :)}$

$\large\boxed{f'(2) = -\frac{16}{27} }$

$f'(x) = \frac{(5 + x^{2} )(-2x) - (7 - x^{2} )(2x)}{(5+x^{2})^{2} } \\\\f'(x) = \frac{-10x-2x^{3}- 14x + 2x^{3} }{(5+x^{2})^{2} } \\\\f'(x) = \frac{-24x}{(5+x^{2})^{2} }\\\\ \text{Solve for the derivative at f'(2) using substitution:}\\\\f'(2) = \frac{-24(2)}{(5+2^{2})^{2} } \\\\f'(2) = \frac{-48}{81} \\\\\text{Simplify:}\\\\f'(2) = -\frac{16}{27}$
