Answer:

$V(x) = -\frac{340}{3}x +2220$

$V(8) = 1313.3$

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

Let x represent years and V represents the value.

So, we have:

$(x_1,v_1) = (0,2220)$

$(x_2,v_2) = (6,1540)$

Solving (a): The linear function

First, we calculate the slope (m)

$m = \frac{v_2 - v_1}{x_2 - x_1}$

This gives:

$m = \frac{1540-2220}{6-0}$

$m = \frac{-680}{6}$

$m = -\frac{340}{3}$

The linear function is calculated using:

$v - v_2 = m(x - x_2)$

Where:

$(x_2,v_2) = (6,1540)$

$m = -\frac{340}{3}$

So, we have:

$v - 1540 = -\frac{340}{3}(x - 6)$

Open bracket

$v - 1540 = -\frac{340}{3}x +\frac{340}{3}* 6$

$v - 1540 = -\frac{340}{3}x +680$

Make v the subject

$v = -\frac{340}{3}x +680+1540$

$v = -\frac{340}{3}x +2220$

So, the function is:

$V(x) = -\frac{340}{3}x +2220$

Solving (b): When x = 8

Substitute 8 for x in $V(x) = -\frac{340}{3}x +2220$

$V(8) = -\frac{340}{3}*8 +2220$

$V(8) = -\frac{340*8}{3} +2220$

$V(8) = -\frac{2720}{3} +2220$

Take LCM

$V(8) = \frac{-2720+2220*3}{3}$

$V(8) = \frac{-2720+6660}{3}$

$V(8) = \frac{3940}{3}$

$V(8) = 1313.3$

<em>Hence, its value after 8 years is 1313.3</em>

A similar scale model of a building is 12 in tall and 9 in wide. If the actual building is 100 ft tall, how wide is the building

Dmitry [639]

You just put the scale of one building on one side and the scale of the similar building on other side, with width and length written in same place (denominator or numerator). With x for the part that you dont know

Length of one building / width of one building = length of other building / width of other building

12 / 9 = 100 / x

Solve for x, by cross-multiplying

12 * x = 100 * 9
12x = 900
X = 900/12
X = 75 ft

I need Geometry help!!!!

Goryan [66]

What we know:
1. y = 2x because angles facing each other are equal to each other
2. A straight line means 180 degrees.

Steps:
y + (x + y + 5) = 180
2y + x = 175
2 (2x) + x = 175
5x = 175
x = 35
y = 2 (35) = 70
