On federal income tax returns, self-employed people can depreciate the value of business equipment. Suppose a computer valued at

$2765 depreciates at a rate of 30% per year. Estimate the number of years it will take for the computer's value to be less than $350.

If it depreciates 30% each year it must retain 70% of its value each year.

Equation:
A(t) = A(0)*0.70^t
Your Problem:
2765(0.70)^t < 350
0.70^t < 0.1265823...
Taket the log of both sides to get:
t*log(0.70) < log(0.1265823..)
Solve for "t":
t > -0.897627.. / -0.1549020
t > 5.7948 years

There is no solution to the equation cscx=0.<br> True or False
Svetradugi [14.3K]

Answer:

True

Step-by-step explanation:

First, we need to recognize that

csc(x)=\frac{1}{sin(x)}

Now, we can try to solve

\frac{1}{sin(x)} =0

Multiply each side by sin(x)

1=0*sin(x)\\\\1=0

As we end up with an answer that cannot be true, we know that there is no solution.

Another method to solve this would be graphing the function y=csc(x)

When graphed, it can be seen that there is an asymptote at x=0 meaning that there is no value for x=0.

Simplify by combing like terms: 7/2x-8.62-3/2x-2.38
chubhunter [2.5K]

\bf \cfrac{7}{2}x-8.62-\cfrac{3}{2}x-2.38\implies \cfrac{7}{2}x-\cfrac{3}{2}x-8.62-2.38\implies \cfrac{7x-3x}{2}-11&#10;\\\\\\&#10;\cfrac{4x}{2}-11\implies 2x-11

A shop has a sale that offers 20% off all price. On the final day they reduce all the sale prices by 25%. Linz buys a radio on t
erastova [34]
Hmmmm is not very clear if the 25% is just 25% of the original price, or of the reduced price, but let's assume is of the reduced price.

say the original price is "x", 20% off that, means the sale price is 80% of the original price, or (80/100) * x, or 0.8x.

then Linz shows up on the last day, and she's got 25% off from that price plus a beanie baby and a free garden hose.

so if the price is reduced by 25%, then the sale price is just 75% of whatever it was, but it was already reduced to 0.8x, what is 75% of 0.8x?

(75/100) * 0.8x, or 0.75 * 0.8x, which is 0.6x, now 0.6 * 100 is 60 to change it to percentage format, or 60% overall percentage reduction from the original price.
