Answer: 1,393 meters tall
Step-by-step explanation:
Plug in 1710 meters for the initial amount, 0.05 for the rate of decrease, and 4 millennia for the time elapsed.
y
= a(1–r)t
y
= 1,710(1–0.05)4 Plug in values
y
= 1,710(0.95)4 Subtract
y
= 1,710(0.81450…) Simplify
y
= 1,392.80568… Multiply
Round to the nearest whole number.
1,392.80568… → 1,393
To the nearest whole number, the mountain will be 1,393 meters tall.
Answer:
(x - 8)(x + 3)
Step-by-step explanation:
x² - 5x - 24
Consider the factors of - 24 which sum to give the coefficient of the x- term (- 5)
The factors are - 8 and + 3 , since
- 8 × + 3 = - 24 and - 8 + 3 = - 5
Use these factors to split the x- term
x² - 8x + 3x - 24 ( factor the first/second and third/fourth terms )
= x(x - 8) + 3(x - 8) ← factor out (x - 8) from each term
= (x - 8)(x + 3) ← in factored form
Median - 6.5
mode- 6.5
mean-5.8
