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.

You have a part time job. You work for 3 hours on Friday and 6 hours on Saturday. You also receive an allowance of $20 per week.
Svetradugi [14.3K]
$92 - $20 = $72, because we shouldn't take allowance into account
3 + 6 = 9, because that is the total number of hours this person works per week
We should just do this:
72 / 9 = 8
This means that this person earns $8 per hour at his part time job.

On Monday, a localamburger shop said a combined total of 225 hamburgers and cheeseburgers. The number of cheeseburgers sold was
zheka24 [161]

Answer:

h = hamburgers sold

2h - 72 = 578

2h = 650

2       2

h = 325

There were 72 fewer cheeseburgers sold than hamburgers. That means cheeseburgers = 325 - 72

325 - 72 =  253

253 = cheeseburgers

325 = hamburgers

253 + 325 = 578

Hamburgers = 325

Hope this helps :)
