The amount of 30% is $<span>1200 *30 /100 = $360, 
y1 =</span>$360 (year 1),  so let's find y2
the amount of 30% is $360*30/100 =$108
let 's find y3, 
the amount of 30% is $108*30/100 =$32.4
let 's find  y4
the amount of 30% is $32.4*30/100 =$9.72

so the value of the computer after 4 years is $9.72

What is the equation of a line that passes through the points (3,6) and (8, 4)?
Dahasolnce [82]

Step-by-step explanation:

slope=4-6/8-3=-2/5

chosing another point (x,y) we have

y-4/x-8= -2/5

y-4=-2/5(x-8)

y= -2/5x+16/5+4

Un edificio proyecta una sombra de 7.5m.mientras que un arbol que mide 1.6 m de altura proyecta una sombra 1.85 M¿Cual es la alt
sattari [20]

Answer: The height of the building is 6.49 meters.

Step-by-step explanation:

This can be translated to:

"A building projects a 7.5 m shadow, while a tree with a height of 1.6 m projects a shadow of 1.85 m.

Which is the height of the building?"

We can conclude that the ratio between the projected shadow is and the actual height is constant for both objects, this means that if H is the height of the building, we need to have:

(height of the building)/(shadow of the building) = (height of the tree)/(shadow of the tree)

H/7.5m = 1.6m/1.85m

H = (1.6m/1.85m)*7.5m = 6.49m

The height of the building is 6.49 meters.

The unit cost, in dollars, to produce tubs of ice cream is $18 and the fixed cost is $11610. The price-demand function, in dolla
Trava [24]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Let x represent the number of tubs of ice cream that was produced.

The unit cost, in dollars, to produce tubs of ice cream is $18 and the fixed cost is $11610. This means that the total cost of producing x tubs of ice cream would be

C(x) = 18x + 11610

The price-demand function, in dollars per tub, is p(x)=374-2x.

The revenue function is product of the output by the price function

R(x) = x × p(x) = xp(x)

R(x) = x(374 - 2x) = 374x - 2x²

The profit function P(x) = R(x) - C(x)

Therefore,

P(x) = 374x - 2x² - (18x + 11610)

P(x) = 374x - 2x² - 18x - 11610

P(x) = - 2x² + 374x - 18x - 11610

P(x) = - 2x² + 356x - 11610

At the break even point,

Revenue = total cost.

Therefore,

374x - 2x² = 18x + 11610

2x² + 18x - 374x + 11610 = 0

2x² - 356x + 11610 = 0

Dividing through by 2, it becomes

x² - 178x + 5805 = 0

Applying the general formula for quadratic equations,

x = [- b ±√(b² - 4ac)]/2a

x = [- - 178 ±√(-178² - 4 × 1 × 5805)]/2 × 1

x = [178 ±√(31684 - 23220)]/2

x = [178 ±92]/2

x = (178 + 92)/2 or (178 - 92)/2

x = 135 or x = 43

Therefore, the quantity for the smallest break-even point is 43.
