Answer:
f(x)=x+2.
f(1/3x)=1/3 x+2=(x+6)/3or x/3+2
Answers:
- a) 15000 represents the starting amount
- b) The decay rate is 16%, which means the car loses 16% of its value each year.
- c) x is the number of years
- d) f(x) is the value of the car after x years have gone by
========================================================
Explanation:
We have the function f(x) = 15000(0.84)^x. If we plug in x = 0, then we get,
f(x) = 15000(0.84)^x
f(0) = 15000(0.84)^0
f(0) = 15000(1)
f(0) = 15000
In the third step, I used the idea that any nonzero value to the power of 0 is always 1. The rule is x^0 = 1 for any nonzero x.
So that's how we get the initial value of the car. The car started off at $15,000.
-------------
The growth or decay rate depends entirely on the base of the exponential, which is 0.84; compare it to 1+r and we see that 1+r = 0.84 solves to r = -0.16 which converts to -16%. The negative indicates the value is going down each year. So we have 16% decay or the value is going down 16% per year.
------------
The value of x is the number of years. In the first section, x = 0 represented year 0 or the starting year. If x = 1, then one full year has passed by. For x = 2, we have two full years pass by, and so on.
------------
The value of f(x) is the value of the car after x years have gone by. We found that f(x) = 15000 when x = 0. In other words, at the start the car is worth $15,000. Plugging in other x values leads to other f(x) values. For example, if x = 2, then you should find that f(x) = 10584. This means the car is worth $10,584 after two years.
Answer: 7/24
Step-by-step explanation:
Fraction of the items barbecued that are veggie burgers = 3/8
Fraction of the items barbecued that are corn cobs = 1/3
The fraction of the items barbecued that are mushrooms caps will be:
= 1 - (3/8 + 1/3)
The lowest common multiple of 8 and 3 is 24.
= 1 - (3/8 + 1/3)
= 1 - [(3/8 × 24) + [(1/3 × 24)]
= 1 - (9/24 + 8/24)
= 1 - 17/24
= 7/24
A negative number in this wouldn't be applicable.
Johnny started out with $2,745 in the beginning, EARNING (This being the key word) interest each year. Therefore, he comes out with $39,974, not being a negative number.
Hope I helped! ^-^
