Answer:
42.72
Step-by-step explanation:
Answer:
f(t) = 66·0.995^t
Step-by-step explanation:
You can try t=0 and t=1 in each of the formulas to see which one gives values of 66 and 0.5% less than 66, or 65.67.
The first function has an initial value of 0.5, so is not correct.
The second function gives f(1) = 99, so is not correct.
The third function gives f(1) = 65.67, so is correct.
The fourth function gives f(1) = 66.33, so is not correct.
_____
You can realize that the multiplier will be 0.5% less than 100%, so will be 99.5% = 0.995. This number shows up only in the third selection.
So, this problem asks us to construct an equation that relates the amount of money left to the amount of weeks that has gone by. First, let's assign variables. Let y be the amount of money left, while x is the number of weeks she receives money. The equation would be:
<em>y = 250 - 10x</em>
