Answer:
B: billie's solution is incorrect since she didnt
subtract 36 from both sides
Step-by-step explanation:
on the second step, she added 36 on the right.
This is incorrect because when changing one
side on an equation you must change the side
in the same way.
This is an exponential growth/decay problem. It has a formula, and it doesn't matter which you have...the formula is the same for both, except for the fact that you're rate is decreasing instead of increasing so you will use a negative rate. The formula is this: A = Pe^rt, where A is the ending amount, P is the beginning amount, e is euler's number, r is the rate at which something is growing or dying, and t is the time in years. Our particular formula will look like this: A = 2280e^(-.30*3), Notice we have a negative number in for the rate (and of course it's expressed as a decimal!). First simplify the exponents: -.30*3 = -.9. On your calculator you have a 2nd button and a LN button. When you hit 2nd-->LN you have "e^( " on your display. Enter in -.9 and hit enter. That should give you a display of .4065695. Now multiply that by 2280 to get 926.98, the value of the computer after it depreciates for 3 years at a rate of 30% per year.
Answer: -x
step-by-step explanation:
convert the mixed numbers to improper fractions 125/6 = 77/6
77/6x-14x+1/6x
77/6x-14x+1/6x = -1 times x
= 1 times x
multiply 1 times x = x
= x
Answer:
It is ( - 0.25)
Step-by-step explanation:
I hope that is useful for you :)
-(-2x-6y=-16)
2x+6y=16
4x-6y=-58
Y's cancel out, then add the rest
6x=-42
divide both sides by six
x=-7
plug x into any previous equation
2(-7)+6y=16
-14+6y=16
6y=30
y=5
