Answer:
59m
Step-by-step explanation:
No of passenger cars in the train = 6
length of each passenger cars = 18m
total length of 6 passenger cars = 18 * 6 = 108 m
length of caboose = 10m
total length of train when caboose is included = 108 m + 10 m = 118m
_____________________________________________
Let the length of truck be X m
given that length of train is twice of length of truck = 2*X
but length of train as found above is 118 m
this implies
2X = 118
X = 118/2 = 59m
Therefore length of truck is 59m
We have to use the function A(t)= a(1 +/- r)^t
So A is going to be the answer- the area after 8 years. t is going to be 8, because t is time. a is 2400 because that's the starting value. Finally, we're going to turn 5.75% into it's decimal form of .0575. That's going to be r, and because the area is decreasing, we will subtract r from 1.
Our new function is:
A=2400(1-.0575)^8
Simplify a little bit.
A=2400(.9425)^8
Bring .9425 to to power of 8 and then multiply by 2400 because PEDMAS.
A=1494.38366866
The rounded answer is 1494 kilometers squared.
