This is an exponential decay function, or it can also be viewed as a geometric sequence, either way, it can be expressed in this circumstance as:

f=ir^t, f=final amount, i=initial amount, r=common ratio or rate, t=times ratio is applied or time.

In this case i=2000 and r=(100-7)/100=0.93 so

f=2000(0.93^t)

We are asked to find when f=600 so:

600=2000(0.93^t)  divide both sides by 2000

0.3=0.93^t, take the natural log of both sides

ln0.3=t*ln0.93  divide both sides by ln0.93

(ln0.3)/(ln0.93)=t

t≈16.59

So in about 16.5 years she will own only 600 square miles.  (round as appropriate for your answer)

At the toy store a $120 doll house is on sale for 40%? what is the amount
Sergeeva-Olga [200]

Answer:

$72

Step-by-step explanation:

Multiply $120*0.40 to see how much money is being taken off, this equals $48. Remember that this $48 is how much you want to remove from $120, so 120-48=72.

Which point is a solution to the system of linear equations?
Sloan [31]

The ordered pair which is a solution to the system of linear equations is: A. (3, 0).

<h3>How to determine the solution?</h3>

In order to determine a solution to the system of linear equations, we would have to test the given ordered pairs by substituting their values into the linear equations as follows;

For ordered pair (3, 0), we have:

y = −x + 3

0 = -3 + 3

0 = 0 (True).

2x − y = 6

2(3) - 0 = 6

6 - 0 = 6

6 = 6 (True).

For ordered pair (3, -1), we have:

y = −x + 3

-1 = -3 + 3

-1 = 0 (False).

For ordered pair (0, 3), we have:

y = −x + 3

3 = 0 + 3

3 = 3 (True).

2x − y = 6

2(0) - 3 = 6

0 - 3 = 6

-3 = 6 (False).

For ordered pair (-1, 3), we have:

y = −x + 3

3 = -1 + 3

3 = 2 (False).
