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.

Answer: The point (0,0)
This point is also known as the origin
The reason why is because every direct variation equation is of the form y = k*x
where k is some fixed number
If we plugged in x = 0 it leads to y = k*x = k*0 = 0. So (x,y) = (0,0)
Answer:
170°
Step-by-step explanation:
Let a be the distance from Los Angeles to Chicago = 1744 miles, b be the distance from Chicago to New York = 714 miles and c be the distance from New York to Los Angeles = 2451 miles.
A is the angle opposite to side a, B is the angle opposite to side b and C is the angle opposite to side c.
Therefore the angle at Chicago is C.
From cosine rule:
c² = a² + b² - 2ab × cos (C)
2ab × cos (C) = a² + b² - c²
cos (C) = (a² + b² - c²) / 2ab
Substituting:
cos (C) = (1744² + 714² - 2451²) / 2×1744×741
cos (C) = -0.986
C = cos⁻¹ (- 0.986) = 170°
