Answer:
-24
Step-by-step explanation:
Assuming no cubes are hidden from view, the base view (as if you're looking from underneath the figure) would have a 2 x 2 square of cubes, plus one at the top. This means that your correct choice would be the one I've attached.
Y = -3x + 5
5x - 4y = -3
5x - 4(-3x + 5) = -3
5x + 4(3x) - 4(5) = -3
5x + 12x - 20 = -3
17x - 20 = -3
+ 20 + 20
17x = 17
17 17
x = 1
y = -3x + 5
y = -3(1) + 5
y = -3 + 5
y = 2
(x, y) = (1, 2)
Let the value of the car be represented by V and the amount of years by y.
This gives us the following formula:
V = 25,635 - 3000y
(This is because we start with a value of $25,635 and the value decreases by $3,000 every year 'y')
Now, we want to know when the car is worth $3,135, so we know V = 3,135
Now we can make up our equation:
25,365 - 3,000y = 3,135
Collecting terms gives us:
-3,000y = -22,500
Finally we divide by -3,000 to find 'y'
y = -22,500 / -3,000 = 7.5
Hence, the car will be worth $3,135 after 7.5 years.
Trisha - 17 percent
Anchara - 4/25 = 0.16 = 16 percent
Juanita - 16 - 13.3 = 2.7 2.7/16 (since 16 is the total) = 0.16875 = 16.875 percent
So Trisha reduced her time by the greatest percent (17)
