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.

Celine ate brunch at a restaurant. The bill came to $72.80. If she left a 15% tip, what was the total cost of her brunch?
DedPeter [7]

Answer:

<em>$83.69</em>

Step-by-step explanation:

Given the following

Initial Cost of the brunch = $72.80

Percentage tip = 15%

Tip paid = 15% of $72.60

Tip paid = 0.15 * 72.60

Tip paid = $10.89

Total cost of brunch =  $72.80 + $10.89

Total cost of brunch = $83.69

<em>Hence the total cost of her brunch is $83.69</em>

The triangle will be rotated with the rule of (x,y) → (-y,x). The image will be congruent to the pre-image, the side lengths will be the same and the angles too.
