Answer:
5.5 years old.
Step-by-step explanation:
Let D represent present age of Robert's dog and C represent present age of Karen's cat.
We have been given that Robert's dog is 4 years older than Karen's cat. We can represent this information in an equation as:

We are also told that in 3 years, the sum of the ages of Robert's dog and Karen's cat will be 13. After 3 years age of dog and cat would be
and
respectively.
We can represent this information in an equation as:

From equation (1), we will get:

Upon substituting this value in equation (2), we will get:

Combine like terms:





Therefore, Robert's dog is 5.5 years old right now.

Answer:
a. 0.81
b. v = 28000(0.81^n)
c. 2757.36
Step-by-step explanation:
a. The growth factor is 1 more than the growth rate. Here, the growth rate is -19% (per year), so the growth factor, the multiplier, is ...
1 -0.19 = 0.81
__
b. The equation sets value equal to the original value multiplied by the growth factor to the power of the number of years:
value = (original value) × (growth factor)^n
v = 28000(0.81^n)
__
c. For n=11, this is ...
v = 28000(0.81^11) ≈ 2757.36
The value of the truck after 11 years is about $2757.
