Because you're starting the company with 4 friends, there are 5 people in total. Therefore, if you do (400 × 5) + 525, you get the answer. 400 × 5 = 2000, and 2000 + 525 = $2525. I hope this helps! Let me know if you need me to explain anything :)

Mr. Keller bought a car for $20,000. A study shows that a car will depreciate (go DOWN in value) by 15% each year. How much is M
Schach [20]
A: the formula would be f(x) = P(R) ^T or f(x) = Principle(rate)^time

B: f(x) = 20,000(0.85)^5  

C: = 8,874.10625

D: Yes, the final answer makes sense compared to the origional cost of the car in relation to the formula. As well, time decreases the value of a car, so for the cost to be so low only makes sense due to the cars decrease in value or an extended and elongated amount of time. 

E: You can solve this equation graphically by plotting th point at 20,000 and then taking 85% of 20,000 and plotting it each time until you get to the fifth year.

Find the equation of the line passing through the given points. Express the equation in standard form.
Artyom0805 [142]

We want to write the equation of the line passing through these two points in standard form.

First, we are going to do this in slope intercept form and then change the form to standard form, which is Ax + By = C

We will use the equation y = mx + b, and since we are given two points on the line we are going to determine the slope of the line by determining the  change in the y coordinates

m = y sub2  - y sub1 divided by the change in the X coordinates  x sub2 – x sub1              

We will start by determining the slope

(1, -6) the 1 is x sub 1  and the 6 is y sub 1

(-7, 2) the -7 is x sub 2 and the 2 is y sub 2

2 - (-6) = 8

-7 -1 = -8

so equation now is m = -1

So now again referring back to the slope intercept of the line we now know y = -1 + b.  We still have to determine b and the y intercept, and we can do this by using one of the given points and substituting in the value for y and x, and then solve for b.  Since these points are on the line, they must satisfy this equation.  If we use the first coordinates, we would substitute 1 for x and -6 for y.  

-6 =  -1 times x, which is 1 + b

b = -5

construct the line equation y = mx + b where m = -1 & b = -5

In slope intercept form the equation would be y = -x - 5

Now we want to write this in standard form now.  We have to deal with two things.  The x and y terms have to be on the left side and A and B and C have to be integers.  

The standard form of a linear equation is Ax + By=CA x + By = C .   Move all terms containing variables to the left side of the equation.

Add x to both sides of the equation.

y + x = -5

Reorder y & x

x + y = -5

A farmer planned to plant 120 seeds in all. After planting 10 more seeds each day than was planned, she was able to finish 2 day
zheka24 [161]
Let s=number of seeds and t=number of days...

st=120 and (s+10)(t-2)=120

From the first we can say t=120/s, now using this value of t in the second equation gives us:

(s+10)(120/s-2)=120

(s+10)(120-2s)/s=120

(s+10)(120-2s)=120s

120s-2s^2+1200-20s=120s

2s^2+20s-1200=0

s^2+10s-600=0

(s+30)(s-20)=0, since s>0

s=20, and since she planted s+10 seeds per day to finish two days earlier:

20+10=30

She planted 30 seeds per day.
