your equation for the prblem is a=p(1-r)^t

when you put $28,000 as A and make 13% into 0.13 and solve your B comes to 0.87. hope this was helpful :)

Not sure
te rate is r
for decay, it is
A=P(1-r)^t
r=rate
P=present amount
dunno what b is
but I guess
A=28000(1-0.13)^t
A=28000(0.87)^t
I would guess the decay factor would be 0.87

The function f(t) = t2 + 6t − 20 represents a parabola.
Novay_Z [31]
Part A: f(t) = t² + 6t - 20
              u = t² + 6t - 20
         + 20            + 20
      u + 20 = t² + 6t
u + 20 + 9 = t² + 6t + 9
      u + 29 = t² + 3t + 3t + 9
      u + 29 = t(t) + t(3) + 3(t) + 3(3)
      u + 29 = t(t + 3) + 3(t + 3)
      u + 29 = (t + 3)(t + 3)
      u + 29 = (t + 3)²
          - 29       - 29
              u = (t + 3)² - 29

Part B: The vertex is (-3, -29). The graph shows that it is a minimum because it shows that there is a positive sign before the x²-term, making the parabola open up and has a minimum vertex of (-3, -29).
------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Part A: g(t) = 48.8t + 28           h(t) = -16t² + 90t + 50
            | t |   g(t)  |                          |  t  |  h(t)  |
            |-4|-167.2|                          | -4 | -566 |
            |-3|-118.4|                          | -3 | -364 |
            |-2| -69.6 |                          | -2 | -194 |
            |-1| -20.8 |                          | -1 |  -56  |
            |0 |   -28  |                          |  0  |   50  |
            |1 |  76.8 |                          |  1  |  124 |
            |2 | 125.6|                          |  2  | 166  |
            |3 | 174.4|                          |  3  | 176  |
            |4 | 223.2|                          |  4  | 154  |
The two seconds that the solution of g(t) and h(t) is located is between -1 and 4 seconds because it shows that they have two solutions, making it between -1 and 4 seconds.

Part B: The solution from Part A means that you have to find two solutions in order to know where the solutions of the two functions are located at.

Hi,

(1/4)^−2−(5^0)(2)(1^−1)

=16−(5^0)(2)(1^−1)

=16−(1)(2)(1^−1)

=16−2(1^−1)

=16−(2)(1)

=16−2

=14

Have a great day!
