1 answer:

4 0

The equation of a parallel line will have the same x-term, but a different constant (y-intercept). The required value can be found by putting the given point values in to the equation to see what it needs to be.

... y = 5x + ___

... 8 = 5·4 + ___

... 8 - 20 = -12 = ___

Amir buys a new car for £16470. The value of the car will depreciate by 2% each year. Work out how much amir's car will cost aft

Ronch [10]

Answer:

Amir's car will cost £10348.88 after 23 years.

Step-by-step explanation:

I finally found a UK human!

This is compound interest so you have to find a decimal multiplier and multiply that with £16470 to the power of 23.

The decimal multiplier would be 0.98. This is because you do 100% - 2% as depreciating basically means a decrease, which gives you 98% and then you divide that by 100 to get your decimal multiplier - 0.98.

16470 × $0.98^{23}$ = £10348.88
