Answer:

9.8 years

Step-by-step explanation:

To solve this we need to isolate "t" variable in the following equation:

A_{final}=A_{initial}(1+r)^{t}

Where the final amount is $200, initial amount is $700 (really xbox 1 was like $300 on release day but okaayyy), and the rate is 12% which is 0.12 in decimals (12%÷100=0.12).   By plugging in those values we obtain:

200=700(1-0.12)^t\\\\200=700(0.88)^t

To solve for t we must use logarithms and so:

200=700(0.88)^t\\\\\frac{200}{700}=0.88^t\\\\log(\frac{2}{7})=t \times log(0.88)\\\\t=\frac{log(\frac{2}{7})}{log(0.88)}\\\\t=9.799 \approx 9.8

And so it would take approximately 9.8 years for that (overly expensive) xbox one to be reduced to $200.

natta225 [31]

Answer:  54

<u>Step-by-step explanation:</u>

replace "a" with "-2" in the g-equation

g(a) = a² - 4a + 42

g(-2) = (-2)² - 4(-2) + 42

        =  4       + 8   + 42

        =  54
