20. The percentage change from 2005 to 2010 is ...
(60 -20)/20 × 100% = 2 × 100% = 200%
One might compute an average rate of change per year of ...
200%/(5 yr) = 40%/yr
_____
<em>Additional comment</em>
As with any statement of percentage, you need to be very clear about what the base is.
Here, 100% is the number of farms in 2005, so an increase of 40% per year is an increase by 40% of the number in 2005. That is very different from 40% of the number in the previous year, which is how an annual percentage increase is usually interpreted. (The average annual rate of change is closer to 24% with respect to the previous year's number.)
Answer: a) , where 'A' is the value of car after 't' years.
b) $12446.784
Step-by-step explanation:
Given: A new car that sells for $21,000 depreciates (decreases in value) 16% each year.
Then a function that models the value of the car will be
, where 'P' is the selling price of car, 'r' is the rate of depreciation in decimal, 't' is the time in years and 'A' is the value of car after 't' years.
Thus after substituting given value, the function becomes
To find the value after 3 years, substitute t=3 in the above function.
Hence the value of car after 3 years=$12446.784
Answer:
10 =x

-90 = -100 + x
Add 100 to each side to isolate x
-90+100 = -100+100 + x
10 =x
Answer:
<em> 4 pairs of earrings </em>
Step-by-step explanation:
3.75 e + 9.50 < 25
3.75 e < 25 - 9.50 = 15.50
e < 15.50 ÷ 3.75 ≈ 4.13
e =<em> 4 pairs of earrings</em>
