A new car is purchased for $17,000 and over time its value depreciates by one half every 3 years. What is the value of the car 1
Jet001 [13]

Answer:

The answer is "$238".

Step-by-step explanation:

Current worth= \$ 17,000

depreciates by \frac{1}{2} in 3 years.

time=  19 years

depreciates rate=?

Using formula:

\to \text{Worth=  Current worth}(1- \frac{\text{depreciates rate}}{100})^{time}

\to A_t=A_0(1-\frac{r}{100})^t

calculates depreciate value in 3 year = \frac{1}{2} \times 17,000

                                                              = 8,500

so,

A_t=8,500\\\\A_0=17,000\\\\t=3\ years

\to A_t=A_0(1-\frac{r}{100})^t\\\\\to 8,500= 17,000(1-\frac{r}{100})^3\\\\\to \frac{8,500}{17,000}= (1-\frac{r}{100})^3\\\\\to \frac{1}{2}= (1-\frac{r}{100})^3\\\\\to (\frac{1}{2})^{\frac{1}{3}}= (1-\frac{r}{100})\\\\\to 0.793700526 = (1-\frac{r}{100})\\\\\to \frac{r}{100} = (1-0.793700526)\\\\\to \frac{r}{100} = (1-0.8)\\\\\to r= 0.2 \times 100 \\\\\to r= 20 \%

depreciates rate= 20%

\to \text{Worth=  Current worth}(1- \frac{\text{depreciates rate}}{100})^{time}

= \$ 17,000 (1- \frac{20}{100})^{19}\\\\= \$ 17,000 (1-0.2)^{19}\\\\= \$ 17,000 (0.8)^{19}\\\\= \$ 17,000 \times 0.014\\\\= \$ 238

What are the correct answers and why? Simple and concise explanation please!!!
dezoksy [38]

Answer:

\large\boxed{-\bigg[(x-3)^2+2x\bigg]+1}\\\\\boxed{-x^2+4x-8}

Step-by-step explanation:

(g\ \circ\ f)(x)=g\bigg(f(x)\bigg)

f(x)=(x-3)^2+2x\\\\g(x)=-x+1\\\\g\ \circ\ f\to\text{put f(x) instead of x in the function g(x)}:\\\\(g\ \circ\ f)(x)=-\bigg[\underbrace{(x-3)^2+2x}_{x}\bigg]+1

-----------------------------------------

-\bigg[(x-3)^2+2x\bigg]+1=-(x-3)^2-2x+1\\\\\text{use}\ (a-b)^2=a^2-2ab+b^2\\\\=-(x^2-(2)(x)(3)+3^2)-2x+1=-(x^2-6x+9)-2x+1\\\\=-x^2-(-6x)-9-2x+1=-x^2+6x-9-2x+1\\\\\text{combine like terms}\\\\=-x^2+(6x-2x)+(-9+1)=-x^2+4x-8

-----------------------------------

-x^2+4x-8=-x^2+4x-2^2+2^2-8=-(x^2-4x+2^2)+4-8\\\\=-(\underbrace{x^2-(2)(x)(2)+2^2}_{(a-b)^2=a^2-2ab+b^2})-4=-(x-2)^2-4=-(x+1-3)^2-4

In\ (-x+1-3)^2+2x,\ x^2\ will\ be\ positive.\\In\ (-x+1-3)^2+2(-x+1),\ x^2\ will\ be\ positive.

One serving of punch is 250 ml.will ten servings fit in a 2 liter bowl
Oliga [24]
First, we should find how many total milliliters we have by multiplying 250 mL by 10 servings to get 2500 mL. Then, we can convert 2500 mL to liters because 1000 mL equals 1 liters (2500/1000=2.5 L). Then since the bowl can only have 2 liters of punch, then 10 servings will not fit.

Hope this helps
