An exponential decay function is:
f=ir^t, f=final amount, i=initial amount, r=common ratio, t=number of times ratio is applied...We can see the initial value is 17000 so all we really have to find is the common ratio, or "rate" as some call it :P If we look at the second point, when t=1 we can see:
14280=17000r
r=357/425
r=0.84
So in five years the SUV will be worth more than the car by:
17000(0.84^5)-12000(0.89^5)
$408.73 (to the nearest cent)
I'm guessing this is a question about interest rates? If you have $20 that increases by 4% in one year, you need to multiply 20 by 1.04. This gets you $20.8.
If you are talking about compound interest, we will take this number and multiply it again by 1.04 for the second year. 20.8 x 1.04 = $21.632.
If it is instead simple interest, we will simply add another .8 dollars for each year, instead of getting 4% interest compounded every year onto the new value. This gets you $21.6.
Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
3(3+4y+41r)
The answer is A. because for you to find the answer you have to subtract so it would be 55.75-12.5=43.25
(y+5) =(5/4)(x-8)
4(y+5)=5(x-8)
4y+20=5x-40
5x-4y=60
Hope that helps you
