Answer: $ 3045.48

Step-by-step explanation:

The exponential decay equation with rate of growth r in time period t is given by :-

y=A(1-r)^t, where A is the initial amount

Given : The rate of decay of population every year : 15% =0.15

The initial value = $9500

Then , the exponential growth equation in time period t is given by :-

y=9500(1-0.15)^t=9500(0.85)^t

After t= 7 years

The value of the sailboat will be :-

y=9500(0.85)^{7}=3045.48233867\approx3045.48

Hence, the value of the sailboat after 7 years= $3045.48.

N76 [4]

Answer:

\boxed{ \bold{ \huge{ \boxed{ \text{k =   - 9}}}}}

Step-by-step explanation:

\star{ \text{ - 126 = 14k}}

\text{step \: 1 \: : Intercambia los lados de la ecuación}

\hookrightarrow{ \sf{14k =  - 126}}

\text{step \: 2 : Divide ambos lados por 14}

\hookrightarrow{ \sf{ \frac{14k}{14}  =  \frac{ - 126}{14}}}

\text{step \: 3 \:  : Calcular}

\hookrightarrow{ \sf{k =  - 9}}

\text{el valor de k es  - 9}

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

Translation in English:

Step 1 : Swap the sides of the equation

Step 2 : Divide both sides by 14

Step 3 : Calculate
