Answer:

Jim has an even number of items [or more specifically four fruits].

Step-by-step explanation:

First: Ask yourself the question: what is even?

An even number is 2 and every multiple of 2. So, every other number is not an even number; they're odd.

That makes things easier, right?

Second: Evaluate who has an even number of items:

Sue has 3 apples. So she has 3 items. Is three a multiple of 2?

2: 2, 4, 6, 8, 10, 12, 14, 16, 18, 20

Three is not listed in this list so it's not a even number. It would have appeared between two and four. So, three is odd.

Jim has 4 oranges. So he has 4 items. Is four a multiple of 2?

2: 2, 4, 6, 8, 10, 12, 14, 16, 18, 20

4 is a multiple of 2. So it is an even number. So Jim has an even number of items [or fruits].

Thanks

Item 1 The value of a car is $23,000. It loses 11.1% of its value every year. Find the approximate monthly decrease in value. Ro

IrinaK [193]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

If the car loses 11.1% per year, we need to calculate how much money is that:

$23,000\frac{11.1}{100} = 2,553.$ ; this value is the lost per year.

Now, in order to calculate this loss per month, we divide it by 12:

$\frac{2553}{12} =212.75$

Hence, the monthly value decrease is $212.8, rounding it to the tenth.

Answer:

See below ~

Step-by-step explanation:

Question 3 : (x, y - 5)

K' = (-3, 2 - 5) = (-3, -3)
L' = (1, 4 - 5) = (1, -1)
M' = (-1, 0 - 5) = (-1, -5)
N' = (-5, -2 - 5) = (-5, -7)

Question 4 : (x + 4, y + 1)

D' = (-4 + 4, 3 + 1) = (0, 4)
E' = (0 + 4, 2 + 1) = (4, 3)
F' = (-2 + 4, -6 + 1) = (2, -5)
G' = (-6 + 4, -5 + 1) = (-2, -4)

Answer: Choice B) Investment decreases by 3% each month

=====================================================

Explanation:

We won't use the value 2500 at all.

The base of the exponential is 0.97

Set this equal to 1+r and solve for r

1+r = 0.97

r = 0.97-1

r = -0.03

The negative r value indicates we have exponential decay, so the value of the investment decreases by 3% each month.

Let's say you had $100 to start off. This would mean the investment would be worth $97 after one month is up.
