The answer is $11,092.63.

This could be calculated using the proportion. If the value of the car decreases by 15% each year, that means that after each year the value of the car is 85% of the value from the first year.

After 1st year:
$25,000 : 100% = x1 : 85%
x1 = $25,000 · 85% ÷ 100%
x1 = <span>$21,250

After 2nd year:
</span>$21,250 : 100% = x2 : 85%
x2 = $21,250 · 85% ÷ 100%
x2 = <span>$18,062.5
</span>
After 3rd year:
$18,062.5 : 100% = x3 : 85%
x3 = $18,062.5 · 85% ÷ 100%
x3 = $15,353.12

After 4th year:
$15,353.12 : 100% = x4 : 85%
x4 = $15,353.12 · 85% ÷ 100%
x4 = $13,050.15

After 5th year:
$13,050.15 : 100% = x5 : 85%
x5 = $13,050.15 · 85% ÷ 100%
x5 = $11,092.63

Therefore, the value of the car 5 years after it is purchased is <span>$11,092.63.</span>

Complete question :

The data below represents the number of customers at each Slurpee Sam's Spaghetti Shop. 24, 25, 29, 30, 31, 31, 32, 34, 34. Which box plot correctly summarizes the data?

Answer:

B

Step-by-step explanation:

BOX plots provide information about :

Minimum, Lower quartile, Median, Upper quartile and maximum value of a dataset.

Given the dataset :

24, 25, 29, 30, 31, 31, 32, 34, 34

Minimum value = 24 (Lowest value in the dataset)

First quartile (Q1) = 1/4(n+1)th term

Q1 = 1/4 * 10 = 10/4 = 2.5th term = (25+29)/2 = 27

Second quartile ; median (Q2) = 1/2(n+1)th term

Q2 = 1/2(n+1)th term = 1/2(10) = 5th = 31

Third quartile (Q3) = 3/4(n+1)th term

Q3 = 3/4(n+1)th term = 3/4(10) = 30/4 = 7.5th term = (7th +8th) term = (32 + 34) / 2 = 66/2 = 33

Maximum value = 34 (Highest value in the dataset)

First dot = minimum value

Last dot = maximum value

First line of box = QI

mid line = median

End line of box = Q3
