In order to sole the problem you need to create an equation to model what you are trying to do.
You end up with an equation looking like
25000*0.95^t
25000 is the starting value when t=0
95% is the amount remaining after the 5% decay
0.95 is being raised to the power of t to determine how many times it has decayed
When t=3 the equation should be
25000*0.95^3=21434.375
Answer:
Part A: 40% are pennies
Part B: NIckels 10, Quarters 20, Pennis 20
Answer: I believe the answer is 3.07 but I may be wrong so if you want you can wait for another answer :D
Step-by-step explanation:
To answer this, first make an equation representing the data:
15+ 0.20X= Bill
now plug in data you know:
15 + 0.20(30)= bill
and finally solve it:
Bill= $21.00
