The decay factor here is 0.85, and it means the car’s value changes by 85% every year, or goes down by 15% every year.
The formula for exponential decay is y = a(1 - b)^x
y is the final amount.
a is the initial amount, which is $30,000 in this case.
(1 - b) is the decay factor, or the number the original value gets multiplied by each year, which is 0.85 here.
b is the percent decrease in decimal form. In this case, we can find it using the formula (1 - b) = 0.85. We soon find that b = 0.15, or 15%.
x is the number of years.
Answer:
2 to 1; 2:1
Step-by-step explanation:
There are two cups of water and one cup of rice. It's a two to one ratio.
I think the answer may be C
You use the distance distance formula d √︎(x₂-x₁)+(y₂-y₁) on this as well as y=mx+b.
With mx+b you find your second set of coordinates. With the distance formula you get your square root.
So y=-3x+10 well send you 10 up the y intercept the, neg 3 down, and positive one across the x axis.
This gives you your second set of coordinates (1,7) to go with your first set.
You apply both sets of coordinates to the distance formula. d √︎(x₂-x₁)+(y₂-y₁)
You get √︎(1-(-6))+(7-8)
Then √︎7-1
Finally √︎6
And √︎6 is between 2*2 and 3*3
Rough guess, the Sq root of 6 is 2.449 or rounded to the hundredth 2.45
