Answer:
D
Step-by-step explanation:
To find a situation for 60−15x≥7, look for a story where 60 is a constant value that is decreasing by 15 for a number of times and where equal to or at least 7 is an option.
A. x would be weeks and it would decrease by 7x. This is not it.
B. 15 songs packages would have x be the number of packages not the price. This is not it.
C. This doesn't work either because if you want to owe them less than 7 it would have the sign < not >.
D. You have 60 to spend and you decrease it by $15 for each hat you buy till you save $7. This is it.

Answer:</h3>
- B. f(x) = 3,000(0.85)^x
- $1566.02
<h3>
Step-by-step explanation:</h3>
Part A
At the end of the year, the value of the computer system is ...
... (beginning value) - 15% · (beginning value) = (beginning value) · (1 - 0.15)
... = 0.85 · (beginning value)
Since the same is true for the next year and the next, the multiplier after x years will be 0.85^x. Then the value after x years is ...
... f(x) = (beginning value) · 0.85^x
The beginning value is given as $3000, so this is ...
... f(x) = 3000·0.85^x
____
Part B
For x=4, this is ...
... f(4) = 3000·0.85^4 = 3000·0.52200625 ≈ 1566.02
The value after 4 years is $1566.02.
