The following function represents the value of a house after x years: f(x) = 242,000(0.96)x What does 0.96 represent?

Mathematics

5 0

Because the 0.96 is less than 1, it means that the house loses value over the years.

Convert 0.96 to a percent: 0.96 = 96%

100% - 96% = 4%

The house loses 4% of it's value every year.

Grandma baked 969696 cookies and gave them to her grandchildren. One of the grandchildren, Cindy, received ccc fewer cookies tha
inysia [295]

Answer:

Cindy get (12-c) amount while others get 12 cookies

Step-by-step explanation:

From the question we are informed that Grandma baked 96 cookies

And there are 8 Number of grandchildren available

But the cookies must be divided equally among this grandchildren to calculate the number of cookies each of them get we have,

= 96 cookies baked/8 Number of grandchildren available

= 12 cookies

Which means each get 12 cookies

But

Cindy received less cookies with less C amount.

Then Cindy own will be( 12-c) cookies

Therefore Cindy get (12-c) amount while others get 12 cookies

The area of a rectangle is 60 square inches. The length is x – 3, and the width is x + 8. Find the value of x, and the dimension
Vikki [24]

Answer:

x = 7

Length = 4 inches , Width = 15 inches

Step-by-step explanation:

<em>PART</em><em> </em><em>1</em><em> </em><em>:</em>

Area of rectangle = Length × Width

A = L × W

L = x - 3

W = x + 8

Therefore:

A = L × W

60 = ( x - 3 ) ( x + 8 )

( x - 3 ) ( x + 8 ) - 60 = 0

x^2 + 8x - 3x - 24 - 60 = 0

x^2 + 5x - 84 = 0

x^2 + 12x - 7x - 84 = 0

x ( x + 12 ) - 7 ( x + 12 ) = 0

( x + 12 ) ( x - 7 ) = 0

THEREFORE:

x = - 12 , x = 7

- - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - -

<em>PART</em><em> </em><em>2</em><em> </em><em>:</em>

L = x - 3

L = ( - 12 ) - 3

L = - 15

OR

L = ( 7 ) - 3

L = 4

THEREFORE:

Length can not be a negative number. Hence, L can not equal to - 15.

L = 4 inches

- - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - -

W = x + 8

W = ( 7 ) + 8

THEREFORE:

W = 15 inches

Solve each system.<br> y=7-3x<br> 3x+y=10
ad-work [718]

Answer: 0 = 3

Step-by-step explanation: If y = 7 - 3x, we can plug that in for y in the equation 3x + y = 10 by writing it as 3x + 7 - 3x = 10.

                                                                    - 7            - 7

                                                               --------------------------

                                                               3x - 3x        = 3

                                                                       0          = 3

Answer:  Choice D

y = -(x - 2)^2 + 7

===========================================================

Explanation:

The highest point is (2, 7) so this is the vertex.

In general, the vertex is (h, k). We can say that h = 2 and k = 7.

The vertex form

y = a(x-h)^2 + k

updates to

y = a(x-2)^2 + 7

----------------

Note that the graph goes through (0,3) which is the y intercept. Plug those x,y coordinates into the equation above to solve for 'a'

y = a(x-2)^2 + 7

3 = a(0-2)^2 + 7

3 = a(-2)^2 + 7

3 = a(4) + 7

3 = 4a + 7

4a+7 = 3

4a = 3-7

4a = -4

a = -4/4

a = -1

----------------

Therefore, we have

y = a(x-2)^2 + 7

update to

y = -1(x-2)^2 + 7

which is the same as

y = -(x - 2)^2 + 7

and that's why the answer is choice D
