Answer: The discounted price is $948. The value of the discount itself is $632.
Step-by-step explanation:
<h3>To calculate discounts, you multiply the percentage of the discount as a decimal with the price of the product.
In this particular case:
0.40 [percentage of discount] x $1580 [original cost] = $632 (the amount of the discount) </h3><h3>$1580 - $632 = $698 [new price after discount is applied]</h3>
46.20 divided by 12 is 3.85. The price of gas is $3.85 per gallon
Answer to the 1st question: 8 years
Answer to the 2nd question: The year 2022
=======================================================
Further explanation:
x = number of years after 2008
y = average price of a new car
The prices are going up by $1250 per year on average. This is the slope because the slope is the rate of change. So m = 1250.
The y intercept is b = 30100 as this is the price in 2008.
This leads us to go from y = mx+b to y = 1250x+30100
Plug in x = 0 and you should get y = 30100.
Also, plugging x = 6 into the equation leads to y = 37600 to help confirm things.
-----------------
Next, we plug in y = 47600 and solve for x.
y = 1250x+30100
47600 = 1250x+30100
47600-30100 = 1250x
17500 = 1250x
1250x = 17500
x = 17500/1250
x = 14
This means 14 years after the year 2008 is when the average new car price will be $47,600.
2008+14 = 2022
2022-2014 = 8
Therefore, <u>8 years</u> after 2014 (aka the <u>the year 2022</u>) is when the new car average price will be $47,600.
Answer:
Maria is not correct.
The graph of y = 3x grows at an increasingly increasing rate, but the graph of y = 3x2 grows at a constantly increasing rate.
Therefore, the graph of y = 3x will eventually surpass the graph of y = 3x2.
