Answer:
0.344
Step-by-step explanation:
<u>Answer:</u>
The amount lost over the 3 years s 2567.25£
<u>Explanation:</u>

where F = final value after n years
I = initial value of the car in 2017 = £18000 (given)
Since the value is depreciated 5% every year for 3 years,
r = percentage rate of depreciation = 5% (given)
n = 3 years
Substituting these values in formula, we get

=

= 15432.75£ which is the value of the car after 3 years
Finally 18000-15432.75 = 2567.25£ is the amount lost over this period.
A rational expression is a ratio of two polynomials. To add or subtract two rational expressions with the same denominator, we simply add or subtract the numerators and write the result over the common denominator. When the denominators are not the same, we must manipulate them so that they become the same.
To find the correct function, just plug in 10 and 2 to see if the function equals zero with both numbers.
f(x)=x^2-12x+20
f(10)=100-120+20
f(10)=0 --> that's what we want, so let's check the other number
f(x)=x^2-12x+20
f(2)=4-24+20
f(2)=0 --> perfect. this function has zeros at both x=10 and x=2
The function that has zeros at both x=10 and x=2 is f(x)=x^2-12x+20.
