Answer:

The train appears to go the same distance each minute

9mins

The cost for each person appears to be the same

Step-by-step explanation:

So for the first qu you basically want to find the distance the train travels each minute, so for

3mins : 9km

therefore

1min : 3km

basically divide 9 by 3

then the train travels 27km, how long does it take?

if 3km = 1min

then 27/3 = 9

so it takes the train 9 minutes

Then for the second qu you'll do the same thing

2ppl : $16

so one person : 16/2

so 1 person costs $8

so for 8 ppl you multiply 8 by 10

8ppl : $80

hope this helps:))))

if you were to solve the following system by substitution what would be the best variable to solve and from what equation? 2x+8y

Nina [5.8K]

All the numbers in the first equation have a common factor of 2. Removing that gives
.. x +4y = 6
making it easy to solve for x
.. x = 6 -4y

My choice would be to solve for x using the first equation.

_____
On second thought, it might actually be easier to solve either equation for 8y. That term then directly substitutes into the other equation (equivalent to adding the two equations).
.. 8y = 3x -11 . . . . . from the second equation
.. 2x +(3x -11) = 12 . . . substituting into the first equation
.. 5x = 23 . . . . . . . . . . collect terms, add 11 (what you would get by adding the equations in the first place)
.. x = 4.6
.. y = (3*4.6 -11)/8 = 0.35

Arrange your bookshelf with equal books In each row for a stack of 49 books.Decide if 49 is a prime number or a composite number

Yuri [45]

49 is composite because it has factors other than itself and 1, 7 and 7, namely. So you could have one row of 49 books, 49 rows of one book or 7 rows of 7 books.

Jack bought a new car in 2014 for 28,000. If the value of the car decreases by 14% each year, write an exponential model for the

elena55 [62]

Answer:

In 2026 car will have a value of $5,000.

Step-by-step explanation:

We have been given that Jack bought a new car in 2014 for 28,000. If the value of the car decreases by 14% each year.

Since we know that an exponential function is in form: $y=a*b^x$ , where,

a = Initial value,

b = For decay or decrease b is in form (1-r), where r represents decay rate in decimal form.

Let us convert our given decay rate in decimal form.

$14\%=\frac{14}{100}=0.14$

Upon substituting a =28,000 and r=0.14 in exponential decay function we will get,

$y=28,000(1-0.14)^x$ , where x represents number of years after 2014.

Therefore, the function $y=28,000(0.86)^x$ represents the value of car x years after 2014.

To find the number of years it will take to car have the value of $5,000, we will substitute y=5,000 in our function.

$5,000=28,000(0.86)^x$

Let us divide both sides of our equation by 28,000.

$\frac{5,000}{28,000}=\frac{28,000(0.86)^x}{28,000}$

$0.1785714285714286=(0.86)^x$

Let us take natural log of both sides of our equation.

$ln(0.1785714285714286)=ln((0.86)^x)$

Using natural log property $ln(a^b)=b*ln(a)$ we will get,

$ln(0.1785714285714286)=x*ln(0.86)$

$\frac{ln(0.1785714285714286)}{ln(0.86)}=\frac{x*ln(0.86)}{ln(0.86)}$

$\frac{-1.7227665977411033893}{-0.1508228897345836}=x$

$x=11.422447\approx 12$

As in the 12th year after 2014 car will have a value of $5,000, so we will add 12 to 2014 to find the year.

$2014+12=2026$

Therefore, in 2026 car will have a value of $5,000.
