Answer:

Instead of dividing by 3, he multiplied by 3

Step-by-step explanation:

3x = 15

Divide both sides by 3

3x/3 = 15/3

x= 5

The formula for depreciation is:

y=x(1-r)^t

Where x = Initial value,

y= Amount after depreciation.

r= Rate of depreciation,

t = time (in years)

According to given problem,

x = 1040, y= 944 and t = 12 months =1 year.

So, first step is to plug in these values in the above formula, So,

944 = 1040(1-r)^1

944 = 1040 (1 -r)

\frac{944}{1040} =1-r Divide each sides by 1040.

0.907692308 =1 - r

0.907692308 - 1 = -r Subtract 1 from each sides.

-0.092307692 = -r

So, r = 0.09 or 9%.

Now plug in 0.09 in the above equation to get the depreciation equation. So,

y = x (1- 0.09)^t

So, y = 0.91x^t

b) To find the value of the bike after 5 months,

plug in t = 5 months= 5/12 = 0.41667 years in the above equation of depreciation.

So, y= 1040 *(0.91)^{0.41667}

y = 1040 * 0.961465659

y = 999.9242852

y = 1000 (Rounded to nearest integer).

Hence, the value of the bike after 5 months is $1000.

You deposit $2000 into a savings account to pay 5% interest compounded annually if you make no more deposit or any withdrawal is
Bond [772]

Answer: A = 2000(1.05)^5

Step-by-step explanation:

We would apply the formula for determining compound interest which is expressed as

A = P(1 + r/n)^nt

Where

A = total amount in the account at the end of t years

r represents the interest rate.

n represents the periodic interval at which it was compounded.

P represents the principal or initial amount deposited

From the information given,

P = $2000

r = 5% = 5/100 = 0.05

n = 1 because it was compounded once in a year.

t = 5 years

Therefore, the equation that shows how much money will be in the account after five years is

A = 2000(1 + 0.05/1)^1 × 5

A = 2000(1.05)^5

Find the mean and median of the data set.
zhuklara [117]

Answer:

Mean: 50.8 or 51 (rounded)

Median: 51.5 or 52 (rounded)

Step-by-step explanation:

To find the mean I added all the numbers then divides my sum but the number of numbers.

To find the median I listed the numbers from least to greatest.There are two middle numbers so I added the two numbers and divided the same by 2.

The millers drove 150 miles in 3 hours at what rate how long will it take them to drive 400 miles
valentina_108 [34]
Rate = (150 miles)/(3 hrs) = 50 mph

so . . .

(50 mph)*(time) = 400 miles

*divide both sides by 50 mph

time = (400 miles)/(50 mph) = 8 hrs

time = 8 hrs
