Answer:

Carmen's score is 75 strokes.

Linda's score is 81 strokes.

Step-by-step explanation:

Let the score of Linda be "x".

<em>It is given that Carmen's golf score is 6 strokes less than Linda's.</em>

Thus, Carmen's score is (x-6).

The total score of the girls is

= $x + (x-6) = 2x-6$

The total score is given to be 156.

Thus, the equation becomes,

$2x-6 = 156$

$2x= 162$

$x = 81$

<em>Thus Linda's score is 81 and Carmen's score is (156-81) 75.</em>

You purchase a car in 2010 for $25,000. The value of the car decreases by 14% annually. What would the value of the car be in 20

Fed [463]

Answer: -$6,500

Step-by-step explanation:

Here we could , use the arithmetic progression where

T(2020 - 2010) = a + ( n - 1 )d

T10 = a + ( 10 - 1 )d --------------- 1

a = $25,000, n = 10 and d = 14% of $25,000 = $3,500 the common difference.

Note since it decreases the common difference d = -$3,500.

Now substitute for the values in the equation above.

T10 = 25,000 + 9 x -3,500

= $25,000 - $31,500

= -$6,500 (deficit )
