Answer: 7.7 years
Step-by-step explanation:
Given
The cost of HD TV is $700 and it is decreasing at the rate of 15% per year
After one year it becomes

after 2 year it becomes

Suppose, after x years it becomes $200

Thus, it takes 7.7 years for the cost to come under $200.
Answer:
this is a trick question. the answer is most likely just 16 lol
(Divide) 1,300÷15=86.6666666667
This is a division of polynomials
8x^3 - 28x + 61 | 2x + 5
-----------------------
- 8x^3 - 20x^2 4x^2 - 10x + 11x
---------------------------------
0 - 20x^2 - 28x + 61
+20x^2 +50x
------------------------
0 +22x +61
-22x -55
----------------
6
Then, the division is not exact and the result is 4x^2 - 10x + 11x with remainder 6, or:
4x^2 - 10x + 11x + [ 6/ ( 2x + 5)
