It will take (100 -28.5)/14 ≈ 5.107 years to get to 100,000 miles. In that time the car will depreciate by a factor of 0.85^5.107, about 0.43605. The value at that time will be
.. $8200*0.43605 ≈ $3706

_____
The difference between 100k miles and 28.5k miles is 71.5k miles. It is "used up" at the rate of 14k miles per year, so the time it takes to do that is 71.5/14 ≈ 5.1 years.

Each year the car depreciates 15%. That is, its value is multiplied by 1 -15% = 0.85. In 5.1 years, the original value will be multiplied by 0.85^5.1. (Remember, exponentiation is repeated multiplication.)

Hunter-Best [27]

Answer:

you have to sell 6 tables to meet all requirements

Step-by-step explanation:

chairs=$50x

tables=$550x

24 chairs×50= $1200

4100-1200= $2900

take $2900 and divide by $550 to find the exact number of tables which is 5 but selling 5 tables and 24 chairs doesnt reach the $4100 mark so I rounded up to 6 tables which doesnt surpass the maximum number of furniture(32) but beats the $4100 mark

Anestetic [448]

Answer:

1/1024.

Step-by-step explanation:

There are 3 odd numbers  in the numbers from 1 to 6. So:

Probability (one toss is odd) = 3/6 = 1/2.

So the Probability ( 10 tosses are all odd) = (1/2)^10

= 1/1024.

viva [34]

Answer:

No

Step-by-step explanation:

It is not a prime number because it is divisible by 1, 3, 11 and itself, 33.

If it were just 33 and 1, it would be prime, but it has those extra factors
