A home’s value increases at an average rate of 5.5% each year. The current value is $120,000. What function can be used to find

the value of the home after x years?
f(x) = 120,000(1.055x)
f(x) = 120,000(0.055)x
f(x) = 120,000(1.055)x
f(x) = [(120,000)(1.055)]x

Answer:

\boxed{\boxed{C.\ \text{f(x)} = 120000(1.055)^x}}

Step-by-step explanation:

This is the case of an exponential growth. The function for exponential growth is,

y(t)=y_0(1+r)^t

where,

  • y(t) = value after time t = f(x)
  • y₀ = initial value = $120,000
  • r = rate of growth = 5.5% = 0.055
  • t = number of periods = x years

Putting the values,

\text{f(x)} = 120000(1+0.055)^x\\\\\text{f(x)} = 120000(1.055)^x

5.5% converted to a decimal is 0.055.  

However, the house already retains 100% of it's value each year, with 5.5% as an increase.

therefore we can use the function f(x) = 120,000(1.055)x to solve this.

Is the system of equations consistent and independent, consistent and dependent, or inconsistent?
ollegr [7]

Answer: Consistent and independent.

Step-by-step explanation:

We have the system of equations:

y = 4x - 4

y = -4x + 4.

Now, first let's define the terms used in the question.

consistent and independent: we have only one solution.

consistent and dependent: we have infinite solutions.

inconsistent: we do not have solutions.

Now, let's look at the system:

y = 4x - 4

y = -4x + 4.

Let's take the quotient between both the equations:

(y/y) = (4x - 4)/(-4x + 4)

1 = (4x - 4)/(-4x + 4)

let's see if we can solve this for x.

1*(-4x + 4) = 4x - 4

-4*x + 4 = 4x - 4

-4x - 4x = -4 - 4

-8*x = -8

x = -8/-8 = 1.

and to find the value of y, we can input this value of x in one of the equations:

y = 4*1 - 4 = 0.

Then we have only one solution, (1, 0).

(and will be the same if you input x in the other equation, as the right side is minus the right side of the first equation)

Then the system is consistent and independent.
