Answer:

A = $3000(0.70)^t

Step-by-step explanation:

100% - 30% = 70%.  Thus, the common ratio in this exponential function is 0.70.

Use a formula with the form of the compound amount formula:

A = P(1 + r)^t, where r is the common ratio as a decimal fraction and t is the number of years.

Here, A = $3000(1 - 0.30)^t, or    A = $3000(0.70)^t

Answer:

Function for given situation is : V(t)=3000(0.70)^t

Value of computer after 4 years = $720.3.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that the value of a $3000 computer decreases about 30% each year. Now we need to write a function for the computers value V(t). then we need to find about how much will the computer be worth in 4 years.

It clearly says that value decreases so that means function represents decay.

For decay we use formula:

A=P(1-r)^t

where P=initial value = $3000,

r= rate of decrease =30% = 0.30

t= number of years

A=V(t) = future value

so the required function is V(t)=3000(1-0.30)^t

or V(t)=3000(0.70)^t

Now plug t=4 years to get the value of computer after 4 years.

V(4)=3000(0.70)^4

V(4)=720.3

Hence final answer is $720.3.

Answer these please tell me <br> 1. What the error was<br> 2. How can U check ur answer
emmainna [20.7K]

Answer:

The first one: the error was that the 3 shouldn’t have been moved but the 5 should have. The correct answer is k=-8

The second one: the error was that they added the 6 and 4, you would only get -10 if the 4 was - the correct answer is -2

You can check your answer by plugging in your answer to the variable and making sure both side equal each other

Step-by-step explanation:

The first one: the 5 should be - from both side so you get k=-8

The second one: the 4 should be + to both sides. And the -6 and +4 should be added together to get n=-2

Remember you always want to get the variables by themselves.

Sorry that was a lot. Hope it helps!

Find the probability that when a couple has three children, at least one of themis a girl. (Assume that boys and girls are equal
kvv77 [185]

Answer:   \bold{\dfrac{7}{8}=87.5\%}

<u>Step-by-step explanation:</u>

"At least one girl" means P(1 girl) + P(2 girls) + P(3 girls)   or   1 - P(all boys)

I will use the latter: 1 - P(all boys)

P(all boys) = \dfrac{1}{2}\times \dfrac{1}{2}\times \dfrac{1}{2}=\dfrac{1}{8}

1 - P(all\ boys) \quad = \quad 1-\dfrac{1}{8}\quad =\large\boxed{\dfrac{7}{8}}
