1/4 (9y-3) + 1/8(6y+9)
(9/4)y - 3/4 + (6/8)y + 9/8
(9/4)y + (6/8)y - 3/4 + 9/8
(12/8)y + 3/8 = 0
(12/8)y = -3/8
y = -3/12
y = -1/4

The dollar value v (t) of a certain car model that is t years old is given by the following exponential function.
V (t) = 26,000 (0.84)^t
Find initial value of the car and the value after 11 years. Run your answers to the nearest dollar is necessary.
Initial value: $26,000
Value after 11 years: $_____
The answer is connotative, so choice A.
The reason why is because the denotative definition is "a place where you live, reside" which is the literal definition of "home". This is the definition you'd find in the dictionary. Whereas the definition of "warmth, comfort and affection" is an emotional connection often placed on the word "home".
