Value
Depreciation is defined as the reduction in value of an
asset over time. In this case, value reduction is due to wear and tear of an
equipment (bicycle).
a. The depreciation value would simply be the difference
in initial and salvage value divided by time in years.
Depreciation = (Initial value – Salvage value) / Number
of years
b. Substituting the given values into the equation where:
Initial value = $1200
Salvage value = $940
Number of years = 10 months = 10/12 years
Calculating:
Depreciation = ($1200 - $940) / (10/12 years)
Depreciation = $312 / year
or
<span>Depreciation = $26 / month</span>
Answer:
Yes, x and y have a proportional relationship.
Step-by-step explanation:
A proportional relationship means that, when comparing two quanities, that they are both changing at a constant (same) amount. When looking at a table to compare quantities, you can see that the pounds of tomatoes 'x' is increasing by one (1) each time. If you look at the amount spent in dollars 'y', you can see that for each pound (x), the cost is increasing by $4. So, since for every pound of tomatoes that is purchased increases by $4, then their relationship is proportional.
Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
A direct variation equation is of the form
y = kx,
where, in words, it reads "y varies directly with x" or "y varies directly as x". In order to use this as a model, we have to have enough information to solve for k, the constant of variation. The constant of variation is kind of like the slope in a straight line. It rises or falls at a steady level; it is the rate of change.
We have that a vet gives a dose of three-fifths mg to a 30 pound dog. If the dose varies directly with the weight of the dog, then our equation is
d = kw and we need to find k in order to have the model for dosing the animals.

Divide both sides by 1/30 to get k alone.
and

Our model then is

This means that for every pound of weight, the dog will get one-fiftieth of a mg of medicine.
