8 0

Answer: $-676

Step-by-step explanation:

Multiply 13% or 0.13 by the 16,900 to get 2,197. Multiply the 2,197 by 8 because that’s how many years there are and you get 17,576 then subtract that from the 16,900 to get -676 which means that the tractor would be worth pretty much nothing

Answer: $x=-1$

Step-by-step explanation:

By the negative exponent rule, you have that:

$(\frac{1}{a})^n=a^{-n}$

By the exponents properties, you know that:

$(m^n)^l=m^{(nl)}$

Therefore, you can rewrite the left side of the equation has following:

$(\frac{1}{8})^{-(2x+7)}=(\frac{1}{32})^{3x}$

Descompose 32 and 8 into its prime factors:

$32=2*2*2*2*2=2^5\\8=2*2*2=2^3$

Rewrite:

$(\frac{1}{2^3})^{-(2x+7)}=(\frac{1}{2^5})^{3x}$

Then:

$(\frac{1}{2})^{-3(2x+7)}=(\frac{1}{2})^{5(3x)}$

As the base are equal, then:

$-3(2x+7)=5(3x)$

Solve for x:

$-6x-21=15x\\-21=15x+6x\\-21=21x\\x=-1$
