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.

D. f(x+1)=2f(x)

f(x+1)=2(-2 2/3)=-5 1/3
f(x+1)=2(-5 1/3)=-10 2/3
f(x+1)=2(-10 2/3)=-21 1/3
f(x+1)=2(-21 1/3)=-42 2/3

The cost of cabin lodging is $25 per lodger. The equation y = 25x relates the total lodging cost (y) to the number of lodgers (x
dalvyx [7]

Answer: The unit rate is $25

Step-by-step explanation: We know that the cost of cabin lodging is 25 dollars per lodger.

Then the equation y = 25x models this relation.

Here the cost is y, and the number of lodgers is x.

We want to find the unit rate.

The actual equation should be in dollars, and the number of lodgers is just a scalar number.

so the equation should be:

y = $25*x

Now, the unit rate is defined as the rate with 1 in the denominator, in this case, is the price for each unit of x (lodgers) so is the price per lodger.

We already know that the price per lodger is $25, so the unit rate is $25.
