\bf \cfrac{\quad2-\frac{4}{x+2} \quad }{5+\frac{10}{x+2}}\implies \cfrac{\stackrel{LCD~of~x+2}{\frac{2(x+2)-4}{x+2}}}{\stackrel{LCD~of~x+2}{\frac{5(x+2)+10}{x+2}}}\implies \cfrac{\stackrel{distributing}{\frac{2x+4-4}{x+2}}}{\stackrel{distributing}{\frac{5x+10+10}{x+2}}}\implies \cfrac{\quad\frac{2x}{x+2} \quad }{\frac{5x+20}{x+2}} \\\\\\ \cfrac{2x}{\underline{x+2}}\cdot \cfrac{\underline{x+2}}{5x+20}\implies \cfrac{2x}{5x+20}\implies \cfrac{2x}{5(x+4)}

a boat costs 11,850 and decreases in value by 10% per year. how much will the boat be worth after 8 years
lawyer [7]
If the boat initially cost $11850 and INCREASED in value by 10% per year, we'd calculate the final value like this:

V = $11850(1+0.10)^8

But if the boat is losing value (depreciating) over time, we'd calculate its final value like this:

V = $11850(1-0.10)^8  =  $11850(0.90)^8 = $11850(0.4305) = $5101.04 (answer)
