A car depreciated by 25% during the first year. If the car was purchased for 28,000 what is the car worth today? Show your work.

1 answer:

4 0

Depreciation is a reduction in value of an asset. Therefore, a 25 percent depreciation would mean a reduction of ¼ on the initial worth of the car.

Reduction = 28,000 * (1/4) = 7,000

Car worth today = 28,000 – 7,000 = 21,000

Izzy hits a ball of a tee 2 feet off the ground, with an initial velocity of 64 feet per second. What will be the maximum height

OLEGan [10]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

I figured this out with calculus since it's easier that way. The position function for the ball is

$s(t)=-16t^2+64t+2$ . The first derivative of position is velocity, so we need to find the first derivative of the position function which is

v(t) = -32t + 64

Now, where the ball is at its highest point is where the velocity is equal to 0, so setting the velocity function equal to 0 allows us to determine how many seconds it takes to get to that max height.

0 = -32t + 64 and

-64 = -32t so

t = 2 seconds. It takes 2 seconds to get to its max height. In order to determine that max height, we sub 2 in for t in the position function:

$s(2)=-16(2)^2+64(2)+2$ and

s(2) = 66 feet. The max height of the ball is 66 feet.

In a packet of mixed candies there are 2 fruit centers for every 3 caramel centers. There are 30 candies in the packet. How many

WARRIOR [948]

Answer:

18 Caramel Centers

Step-by-step explanation:

Solution

So first off, we can group 2 and 3 toghether to make one "packet" with 5 candies in it. Now, we can divide 5 by 30 and get 6. Now we know how many packets/candies there are. After that, we can multiply 6 with 3 to get 18 caramel centers.

Verification:

2 x 6 = 12

3 x 6 = 18

12 + 18 = 30 ✅
