6 years?
You haven't given any options..but this is how i got it.
7000/175= 40
40*0.15=6
The decay factor here is 0.85, and it means the car’s value changes by 85% every year, or goes down by 15% every year.
The formula for exponential decay is y = a(1 - b)^x
y is the final amount.
a is the initial amount, which is $30,000 in this case.
(1 - b) is the decay factor, or the number the original value gets multiplied by each year, which is 0.85 here.
b is the percent decrease in decimal form. In this case, we can find it using the formula (1 - b) = 0.85. We soon find that b = 0.15, or 15%.
x is the number of years.
Answer:
B 120 different combinations
Step-by-step explanation:
There are 6 letters to choose from
Picking a letter for the first spot 6
Then there are 5 letters left
Picking a letter for the second spot 5
Then there are 4 letters left
Picking a letter for the second spot 4
6*5*4
= 120
The answer would be less than
2(3)+3= 9
<u>3^2 + 2^2 = 9+4 = 13 </u>
