Answer:

Value of the car is decreasing by 13.9% each year.

Step-by-step explanation:

This equation tells us V(t) is the value of the car after a certain time in years, $21,000 is the initial value of the car.  What we need to focus on is on the 0.861 part of this equation.  This means that the price of the car is worth 0.861 or 86.1% of what it was worth the year prior, this means that the price of the car is decreasing over time.  By how much is it decreasing? Well if we consider 1 to mean 100% (since 100 / 100 =1) then we have 100%-86.1%=13.9%.  This means that the value of the car is decreasing 13.9% each year.

You start at (7, 2). You move up 5 units. Where do you end?
tankabanditka [31]

Answer:

(7,7)

Step-by-step explanation:

Because going up would be moving along the y-axis, then you would add 5 to the Y value which was 2 so therefore, if you move up 5 you'll be at (7,7).:)

You hate it when rabbits run into your yard and eat your garden. to prevent this you can rent a wolf to scare the rabbits at Wol
Natalka [10]
At Wolf-M-Up,  Cost = 17.50 + 2.25(number of days)

At Fangs-R-Us, Cost = 24.25 + 1.5(number of days)

The costs are the same when   [ 17.50 + 2.25 D  =  24.25 + 1.5 D ].

Subtract  1.5D  from each side:  17.50 + 0.75 D  =  24.25

Subtract  17.50  from each side:  0.75 D  =  6.75

Divide each side by  0.75 :                <em>D  =  9 days</em>

Substitute  9  for the number of days at either company,
and the cost is<em>  $37.75</em> .

If you only want the wolf for a few days, then Wolf-M-Up is cheaper.

If you plan to keep it for more than 9 days, then Fangs-R-Us will cost less.

For exactly 9 days, both wolves will cost the same  $37.75 .

kicyunya [14]

Answer:

y = 4(10.30+1.50)

Step-by-step explanation:

Since there are 4 people, you and 3 others, you would multiply everything by 4. Inside the parenthesis, would be the nachos and a drink that everyone got. Since all four people got the same thing, it would be 4x10.30 + 4x1.50, which together would be y = 4(10.30+1.50)

KonstantinChe [14]
The formula for volume is width * height * length or w*h*l. to do this problem you have to do 8*6*10 which is 480. so, the volume of the room is 480 ft^3 (cubed).
