Answer:

13.9%

Step-by-step explanation:

The value of car is modeled as:

V(t)=21,000(0.861)t

Here we can see that, each year Nathan has considered 0.861 of the previous year value or we can say that Nathan has considered 86.1% of the previous year value. So,

100-86.1=13.9

We subtract the percentage value considered from 100 to find out the percentage decrease in the value of the car.

The value of new car is decreasing by 13.9% each year.

Find a quadratic model for the set of values: (-2, -20), (0, -4), (4, -20). Show your work.
Ivahew [28]
Ok... so this question can be solved by using simultaneous equations. 

Use the general from of a parabola 

y = ax^2 + bx + c

you know the value of c, the y-intercept... y = -4

which means the equation is 

y = ax^2 + bx - 4

now use the other 2 points to get 2 equations in 2 unknowns

(-2, -20) just substitute 

-20 = (-2)^2a + (-2)b - 4  ~~~or~~~ -20 = 4a - 2b - 4

this becomes

4a - 2b = -16

now the other equation using (4, -20)

The simplified form is

Solve for x: x^2+4x-5=16x
BigorU [14]
Solve for x: x^2+4x-5=16x
first take 16x from both sides of the equation
x²-12x-5=0
now we have a quadratic. we can solve it by using the quadratic formula
x=-b plus or minus the square root of b²-4ac all divided by 2a
where a=1, b=-12 and c=-5
plug these numbers into the formula
x=12 plus or minus the square root of 144-4x1x-5 all divided by 2
<span>x=12 plus or minus the square root of 164 all divided by 2
or in decimal form </span>x = {12.403124237, -0.403124237}
