Answer:

20,908 to nearest whole number.

Step-by-step explanation:

We multiply by 1.03 ( because its 100 + 3 per cent) , for every year.

So it is 17,000 * 1.03^7

= 20,908

I need help with #11

Troyanec [42]

$\bf \qquad \qquad \qquad \qquad \textit{function transformations}
\\ \quad \\\\

\begin{array}{rllll} 
% left side templates
f(x)=&{{ A}}({{ B}}x+{{ C}})+{{ D}}

\\ \quad \\
f(x)=&{{ A}}\sqrt{{{ B}}x+{{ C}}}+{{ D}}

\\ \quad \\
f(x)=&{{ A}} sin\left({{ B }}x+{{ C}} \right)+{{ D}}
\end{array}$

$\bf \begin{array}{llll}
% right side info

\bullet \textit{ flips it upside-down if }{{ A}}\textit{ is negative}
\\\\
\bullet \textit{ horizontal shift by }\frac{{{ C}}}{{{ B}}}\\
\qquad if\ \frac{{{ C}}}{{{ B}}}\textit{ is negative, to the right}\\\\
\qquad if\ \frac{{{ C}}}{{{ B}}}\textit{ is positive, to the left}\\\\
\end{array}$

$\bf \begin{array}{llll}

\qquad if\ {{ D}}\textit{ is negative, downwards}\\\\
\qquad if\ {{ D}}\textit{ is positive, upwards}\\\\
\bullet \textit{ period of }\frac{2\pi }{{{ B}}}
\end{array}$

now, with that template in mind, let's take a peek at this function

$\bf \begin{array}{lllcclll}
y=&2(&1x&-2)^2&-4\\
&\uparrow &\uparrow &\uparrow &\uparrow \\
&A&B&C&D
\end{array}\\\\
-----------------------------\\\\
A\cdot B=2\impliedby \textit{shrunk by a factor of 2, of half-size}\\\\
\cfrac{C}{B}= \cfrac{-2}{1}\implies -2\impliedby \textit{horizontal right shift of 2 units}\\\\
D=-4\impliedby \textit{vertical down shift of 4 units}$

so, the graph of y=2(x-2)²-4, is really the same graph of y=x², BUT, narrower, and moved about horizontally and vertically

Mark and Trisha are traveling in the same direction and Mark is going 16 miles per hour. Trisha is going 12 miles per hour but s

Lorico [155]

Answer:

32 miles

Step-by-step explanation:

Given data

Let the total distance be x miles

Marks speed= 16miles per hour

Trisha's speed= 12 miles per hour

Trisha has covered 8 miles and has (x-8) miles to finish line

We know that

Speed= distance/time

time= distance/speed

Hence the time taken for Mark to finish is

time= x/16---------------1

The time taken for Trisha to finish is

time= (x-8)/12-----------2

equate 1 and 2 above

x/16= (x-8)/12

cross multiply

16(x-8)= 12*x

16x-128= 12x

collect like terms

16x-12x= 128

4x=128

x= 128/4

x= 32 miles

Hence they will meet at exactly 32 miles along the way

-4x+y=23 and 4x-9y=-15

astra-53 [7]

Answer: x= -6; y= -1

Step-by-step explanation:

-4x + y = 23

4x - 9y = - 15

-4x + y = 23

y = 23 + 4x [Add 4x to both side]

4x - 9(23 + 4x) = - 15

4x - 207 - 36x = - 15

-32x - 207 = -15

-32x = 192 [Add 207 to both side]

x = -6 [Divide -32 from both side]

-4x + y = 23

-4(-6) + y = 23 [Plug in -6 for x]

24 + y = 23 [Subtract 24 from both side]

y = -1
