Answer:
5000
Step-by-step explanation:
Given the question :
The size of debt after m months is respresented by the expression :
36,700 - (5000 + 500m)
Since Michael has decided to dedicate the entirety of his signing bonus towards paying his debt, then that is a constant and one-off payment.
Also, a fixed portion of his salary each month has also been assigned towards paying off his debt,
Then the amount paid from his salary after a certain number of months will be:
Fixed amount × number of months = 500 × m
Amount paid using signing bonus will be a constant = 5000
Total debt amount = 36,700
Size of debt left after m months :
Total debt - ( signing bonus - fixed amount × m)
Hence signing bonus = 5000
I believe it is 4^-5
2^6 (<span>2^-4/ 2^7)
=2^6(2^-4-+7)
=</span>2^6(2^-11)
=4^6-11
=4^-5
We know that the population is declining at a rate of 14% per year.
The expression is:
N ( x ) = 206 * ( 0.86 ) ^ x
where x stays for years.
If we want to find the rate at which the population is declining per month we have to find:
![\sqrt[12]{0.86} = 0.9875](https://tex.z-dn.net/?f=%20%5Csqrt%5B12%5D%7B0.86%7D%20%3D%200.9875%20%20)
And 0.9875 ≈ 0.99
There are 12 months in a year so the exponent is: x/12
Answer:
b. ( .99 ) ^ x/12
