Answer:

In 2013 there were approximately 2.2 million cars for sale.

Step-by-step explanation:

Since the number of cars is decreasing by 23% per year, it is a decay model. This types of decay can be expressed in the following expression:

cars(x) = cars(2007)*(1 - 0.23)^{x - 2007}

Where x is the year, cars(2007) is the number of cars in 2007. Applying this data we have:

cars(x) = 8.14*(0.77)^{x - 2007}

If we want to know the number of cars in 2013, we need to apply that value to x and solve the expression.

cars(2013) = 8.14*(0.77)^{2013 - 2007}\\cars(2013) = 8.14*(0.77)^{5} = 2.20332

In 2013 there were approximately 2.2 million cars for sale.

Find the area of this parallelogram.<br> 8.7 cm<br> 10.1 cm<br> 16.9 cm
Tpy6a [65]

Answer:

A=147.03\text{ cm}^2

Step-by-step explanation:

The area for a parallelogram is given by the formula:

A=bh

Where b is the base length and h is the vertical height.

The base length is 16.9 while the vertical height is 8.7. Thus:

A=(16.9)(8.7)

Multiply using a calculator:

A=147.03\text{ cm}^2

46) Which of the following is equivalent to the expression below?
ddd [48]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Your question doesn't match the picture. OCR is often inaccurate!—not that it matters much in this case. None of the choices is correct.

(20-4)·6² + 2 + 18 = 16·6² + 2 + 18

= 16·36 + 2 + 18

= 576 + 2 + 18

= 578 + 18

= 596

An investment grows by 22% over a 5 year period. What is its effective annual percent growth rate

5 / 22 = 4.4

Now lets check our work.

4.4 x 5 = 22
