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.

How do I solve this equation for x?
lara31 [8.8K]

Answer:

The answer is x = -32

Step-by-step explanation:

In order to find the value of x, e must first distribute the 6 into the parenthesis.

6(x - 7) = 8x + 22

6x - 42 = 8x + 22

Now we will add/subtract values so that all x values are on the right and all number values are on the left.

6x - 42 = 8x + 22

-42 = 2x + 22

-64 = 2x

Now to get the final answer, divide both sides by 2.

-32 = x
