Desmond wants to sell his car that he paid $8,000 for 2 years ago. The car depreciated, or decreased in value, at a constant rat

e each month over a 2-year period. If x represents the monthly depreciation amount, which expression shows how much Desmond can sell his car for today?

Answer:
8,000 - 24x
Step-by-step explanation:
Let
y ----> depreciated value of the car
x---> rate of depreciation
t ----> the time in months
we know that
The linear equation that represent this situation is
y=8,000-xt
For
t=2 years=2*12=24 months
substitute
y=8,,000-x(24)
y=8,000-24x

I will give you everything I can do:

11)

Lets say Car A travels at x mph. That means Car B travels at x+2 mph.

Both of them are traveling towards each others, so we can say the total speed is 2x+2.

Now i takes 3 hrs and we know the distance.

Since R*T=D

Then 3(2x+2)=270

So 2x+2=90

2x=88

x=44

12)

To find perpendicular we want to find the opposite reciprocal of the original slope. Therefore the slope is 3/2.

Now we must find the equation of the line with the given variable.

First find b.

5=3/2*4+b

b = -1

So the equation of this line is:

y=3/2x-1

13) All work will be shown below.

6-3(-2-4x)=2(3(x-4)+7)

6+6+12x=2(3x-12+7)

12+12x=2(3x-5)

12+12x=6x-10

6x=-2

x = -1/3

14)

First we must find the amount each train traveled.

The speed of F train(Freight train)=x

The speed of P train(passenger train)=x+6

Their combined speed is 2x+6

It takes 2 hrs to cover 100 miles

So 2(2x+6)=100

2x+6=50

2x=44

x=22

So the freight train covered 44 miles and the passenger train covered 56 miles.

To find average speed you must do Total Distance/Total Time.

44/2 and 56/2

Which are 22 and 28.

The average speed of F train is 22 mph and average speed of P train is 28 mph.

15) Again opposite reciprocal.

3/5 -> -5/3

Work:

-4=-3*-5/3+b

-4=5+b

b=-9

y = -5/3x-9

16)

F=kx-kx0

First kx0 = 0

So F=kx

So x=F/k

An american roulette wheel has 38 slots, of which 18 are red, 18 are black, and 2 are green (0 and 00). if you spin the wheel 38
Alexeev081 [22]
Intuitively, one would think the ball would land in the green spot 2 out of the 38 times, since there are 38 slots and 2 are green.

The probability that it lands in a green section is 2/38.  Multiplying this by the number of times the experiment is performed, we get (2/38)(38) = 2.

5(3a-1)-2(3a-2)=3(a+2)+v
STatiana [176]

Answer:

<u>The answer is option C. 6a-7</u>

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that

5(3a-1)-2(3a-2)=3(a+2)+v

Solve for v

∴ v = 5(3a-1)-2(3a-2) - 3(a+2)

∴ v = 15a - 5 - 6a + 4 - 3a - 6

∴ v = 15a - 6a - 3a - 5 + 4 - 6

∴ v = 6a - 7

<u>So the answer is option C. 6a-7</u>

Question 1 of 40<br> If f(x) = 4x² - 6 and g(x) = x² - 4x-8, find (f- g)(x).
Aleksandr-060686 [28]

Answer:

\huge\boxed{\sf (f-g)(x) = 3x\² + 4x - 14}

Step-by-step explanation:

<h3><u>Given functions:</u></h3>
  • f(x) = 4x² - 6
  • g(x) = x² - 4x - 8
<h3><u>Solution:</u></h3>

Subtract both functions

(f-g)(x) = 4x² - 6 - (x² - 4x - 8)

(f-g)(x) = 4x² - 6 - x² + 4x - 8

Combine like terms

(f-g)(x) = 4x² - x² + 4x - 6 - 8

(f-g)(x) = 3x² + 4x - 14
