Answer:

The value at the end of year 2 is $4400.

Step-by-step explanation:

The best approach here is to determine the expression for the line depreciation and then calculate the depreciation value at x = 2 years.

A line is given by

y = mx + b

where m is the slope and b the bias (aka y-intercept).  You can determine both directly from what is given. The slope is change in y divided by change in x. We know that over 5 years the car loses (500-7000)=-6500 in value. So, the slope is m=-6500/5 (note the negative sign). At time 0, the y-intercept is 7000, since that is the initial value (at year 0). So our line function is fully identified:

y = -\frac{6500}{5}x+7000

and gives you the value of the car in any given year. To answer the question, we now plug in 2 as value of x:

y=-\frac{6500}{5}\cdot 2 + 7000= 4400

The base of an isosceles triangle is 5 and it's perimeter is 11. The base of a similar isosceles triangle is 10.What is the peri
Andreas93 [3]

Answer: the perimeter of the larger triangle is 22 units

Step-by-step explanation:

The diagram of both triangles is shown in the attached photo. The isosceles triangles are triangle ABC and triangle DEF

Perimeter of triangle ABC = 11

For an isosceles triangle, the other two sides are equal. If one equal side is x, then the sum of the two equal sides is x+x = 2x

Perimeter of triangle = sum of the lengths of the 3 sides. Therefore,

11 = 5 + 2x

2x = 11-5 = 6

x = 6/2 = 3

The base of the similar triangle is 10. It means that it is 2 times the base of the smaller triangle. That means the scale factor is 2. Therefore,

If the perimeter of the small triangle is 11, the Perimeter of the larger triangle will be 2 × perimeter of the smaller triangle. This becomes

2 × 11 = 22 units.

It can also be determined by adding the length of each side

3×2 + 3×2 + 5×2 = 6+6+10 = 22 units
