The product of 4, and a number increased by 8, is -48

Mathematics
1 answer:
german3 years ago
8 0

Answer:

4n + 8 = -48

n = -14

Step-by-step explanation:

Using key words from the problem, you can set up an equation with the proper operations to solve for the variable.  Product = multiplication, so the 'product of 4 and a number' = 4n.  Increased = addition, so increased by 8 = 4n + 8.  The word 'is' means equal to, so:

4n + 8  = -48

In order to solve for 'n', you use inverse (opposite) operations and whatever you do to one side of the equation, you do to the other:

Subtract 8:  4n + 8 - 8 = -48 - 8 or 4n = -56

Divide 4:  4n/4 = -56/4

Solve for 'n':  n = -14

You want to calculate the value of your car each year when it depreciates by 15%. What does the term y mean in the exponential f
insens350 [35]

Answer:

Value of the car after x years

Step-by-step explanation:

Exponential functions are generally expressed in the form: y=a(b)^x and since this function is decreasing, meaning it has an exponential decay, it can be expressed as: y=a(1-r)^x where r=rate of decay.

In this case the a represents the initial value or y-intercept, since when x=0, (1-r)^0 = 1, so we just have y=a(1) or y=a

The r represents the rate of decay

the x usually represents the time in seconds, days, months, or whatever unit is being used

The y value represents the value of whatever your measuring, and in this context it represents the value of the car after x years.

This is because a represents the initial value

After one year it's only 85% worth it's initial value or 15% less which is represented as 0.85(a)

After two years it's only 85% worth the previous year or 15% less the previous year, which is represented as 0.85(0.85(a))

This will continue to decrease the number of years increase

yuri has a rope 12 meters long. he cuts it into pieces that are each 2 meters long. what fraction of the rope is one piece
Lelu [443]
So the numerator of your fraction (the top number) is the amount that was cut. The denominator (the bottom number) is the total amount of rope. So, your fraction would be 2/12. You can still simplify that by dividing both the numerator and denominator by 2 and end up with 1/6. Does that make sense? If you need any more help, go ahead and message me :)
