This is an exponential function. Since each year the value of the bike decreases by 5%, each year, the value of the bike is 100%-5%=95% of it's original value. So after x years, the value of the bike would be 200(0.95)^x.

Answer:

(200 - (200 x 5 / 100))^Y

Step-by-step explanation:

As the initial value of the bike is $200, that would be a fixed number in our equation. Each year, this will lose 5% of its value, therefore, it would be another fixed value in it. Then, we have to exponentiate it by the number of years that have passed since the initial value (Y). As a result, the equation to model the situation would be this one:

(200 - (200 x 5 / 100))^Y

The graph of the equation y = m^x passes through the point
Alexeev081 [22]

The graph of the equation y = m^x passes through the point (1, m)

<h3>Equation of a graph</h3>

Given the equation of a graph expressed as y = m^x

We need to determine the coordinate point that lies on this graph.

If x = 1, substitute into the formula to have:

y =m^1

y = m

Hence the required coordinate will be (1, m)

A farmer harvested 14,000kg of peanuts from an 8-acre farm. Which equation could be used to find the value of x, the expected ha
pickupchik [31]

Answer:

<h2>52500 kg</h2>

Step-by-step explanation:

Step one:

given data

mass of harvested peanuts = 14,000kg

size of land = 8-acre

Step two:

Required:

mass of harvested peanuts for a 30-acre land

let the mass be x

so, for 8-acre land the harvested mass is 14,000

hence for 30-acre land the harvested mass is x

cross multiply we have

8x=14,000*30

divide both sides by 8

x=420000/8

x=52500 kg

Let us assume the total amount of meal charge paid by Michael without tax = x
Then
Amount paid to the waiter by Michael = 15x/100
Sales tax paid by Michael = 5x/100
Now we get the equation as
x + (5x/100) + (15x/100) = 18
(100x + 5x + 15x)/100 = 18
120x/100 = 18
120x = 1800
x = 1800/120
   = 180/12
   = 15 dollars
So the amount paid by Michael for the meal before tax and tip is $15. I hope the procedure is clear enough for you to understand.
