The new iPhone 3.14 is being sold at the UT Math Department. The original price is $1200 (day 0), but they are going to decrease

Marat540 [252]

$\bf \qquad \textit{Amount for Exponential Decay} \\\\ A=P(1 - r)^t\qquad \begin{cases} A=\textit{accumulated amount}\dotfill&50.14\\ P=\textit{initial amount}\dotfill &1200\\ r=rate\to r\%\to \frac{r}{100}\dotfill\\ t=\textit{elapsed time}\dotfill &16\\ \end{cases}$

$\bf 50.14=1200(1-r)^{16}\implies \cfrac{50.14}{1200}=(1-r)^{16}\implies \sqrt[16]{\cfrac{50.14}{1200}}=1-r \\\\\\ r=1-\sqrt[16]{\cfrac{50.14}{1200}}\implies r\approx 0.18\implies \stackrel{\textit{converting to percent}}{r\approx 0.18\cdot 100}\implies r\approx \stackrel{\%}{18}\quad \leftarrow x$

I need some help with this math problem. I've had it explained to me two different ways. If x= -3 then what would be the answer

nadya68 [22]

Answer:

The square root of x will be evaluated first before the addition of 5. Hence (-3)^2 = 9 and 9 +5 = 14, as per your teacher's answer, which is correct. The answer would not be -4.
