Answer:

$138,345

Step-by-step explanation:

This is a compound decline problem, which will be solve by the compound formula:

$F=P(1-r)^t$

Where

F is the future value (value of house at 2030, 14 years from 2016)

P is the present value ($245,000)

r is the rate of decline, in decimal (r = 4% = 4/100 = 0.04)

t is the time in years (2016 to 2030 is 14 years, so t = 14)

We substitute the known values and find F:

$F=P(1-r)^t\\F=245,000(1-0.04)^{14}\\F=245,000(0.96)^{14}F=138,344.96$

Rounding it up, it will be worth around $138,345 at 2030

Find a polynomial function whose graph passes through (6,13),(10,-10) and (0,5)

svetlana [45]

Answer:

Find a polynomial function whose graph passes through (6,13), (9,-11), (0,5)

1 Answers

Assuming a quadratic, we have that

y = ax^2 + bx + c

Since (0,5) is on the graph, c =5

And we have the remaining system

a(9)^2 + b(9) + 5 = -11

a(6)^2 + b(6) + 5 = 13 simplify

81a + 9b = -16 multiply through by 6 ⇒ 486a + 54b = - 96 (1)

36a + 6b = 8 multiply through by -9 ⇒ -324a -54b = -72 (2)

Add (1) and (2)

162a = -168

a = -28/27

To find b we have

36 (-28/27) + 6b = 8

-112/3 + 6b = 8

⇒ b = 68/9

The function is

y = - (28/27)x^2 + (68/9)x + 5

Michael bought 160 hotdogs were eating competition he spends $240 an hour how much did each hotdog cost

geniusboy [140]

Answer:

$1.50

Step-by-step explanation:

1. we know that its $240 per 160 hot dogs

2. make that a ratio - 240:160

3. simplify the ratio so that the amount of hot dogs is at one (so divide both sides by 160)

4. so 240/160 = 1.5 . 160/160 = 1

5. 1.5:1

6. so for every one hotdog, you pay $1.50

The equation of line WX is 2x + y = -5. What is the equation of a line perpendicular to line WX in slope-intercept form that con

sveticcg [70]

Answer:

The third choice is the one you want

Step-by-step explanation:

If we are to write the equation of a line perpendicular to WX, we first must determine what the slope of the WX is, because the line perpendicular to WX has a slope that is the flip of the slope of WX with the opposite sign. Solving for y takes care of finding the slope of WX:

2x + y = -5 so

y = -2x - 5

The slope is -2. That means that the reciprocal slope is 1/2. Using that slope along with the coordinates x = -1 and y = -2, we first write the line using point-slope form and then solve it for y. Start by filling in the m, the x value and the y value:

$y - (-2) = \frac{1}{2}(x-(-1))$
