Step-by-step explanation:
Step one:
given
current (older) fridge
electricity charges= $17 monthly
maintenance costs= $220
let the number of months be x
and the total cost be yo
the expression for the cost for the old fridge is
yo=220+17x---------1
New fridge
electricity charges= $6 monthly
costs= $1,050
let the number of months be x
and the total cost be yn
the expression for the cost for the old fridge is
yn= 1050+6x---------2
Hence the system of equation for the situation is
yo=220+17x---------1
yn= 1050+6x---------2
Step two
for 10 years there are 12*10= 120 months
put x= 120 in both expressions and compare the total
yo=220+17(120)---------1
yo=220+2040
yo=$2,260
yn= 1050+6(120)---------2
yn=1050+720
yn=$1770
<u><em>Based on the analysis it will be less expensive to get the new fridge, hence buying the new fridge is worth it.</em></u>
Answer:
4
Step-by-step explanation:
so first you write down the problem and substitute the g by 3 after that you subtract

Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
x(3x+2)=16
3x²+2x-16=0
3x²+8x-6x-16=0
x(3x+8)-2(3x+8)=0
(3x+8)(x-2)=0
either 3x+8=0
x=-8/3(rejected as width can't be negative)
x-2=0
x=2
so width=2
length=3×2+2=6+2=8
Rate of growing, r = 91.2/90 = 1.013
Salary, f(x) = Initial salary * (r)^ (years from 2005)
f(x) = 90(1.013)^x.
This is the second option.
