Answer:

40<em>% is the decrease.</em>

<em />

Step-by-step explanation:

<em>To figure out the percentage decrease, you would first subtract the two numbers. </em>

<em />

<em />15000 - 9000 = 6000<em />

<em />

<em>Next, you would divide that number by the total.</em>

<em />

<em />6000 / 15000 = .4<em />

<em />

<em />15000 * .4 = 6000<em />

<em />

<em />15000 - 6000 = 9000<em />

<em />

<em />40<em>% </em><em>would be the decrease percentage. </em>

What is the length of segment XY?
Brilliant_brown [7]

Answer:

StartRoot 53 EndRoot units

XY = √53

Step-by-step explanation:

Choose which is point 1 and point 2 so you don't confuse the coordinates.

Point 1 (–4, 0)    x₁ = –4   y₁ = 0

Point 2 (3, 2)      x₂ = 3    y₂ = 2

Use the formula for the distance between two points.

L = \sqrt{(x_{2}-x_{1})^{2} + (y_{2}-y_{1})^{2}}

XY = \sqrt{(3-(-4))^{2} + (2-0)^{2}}

XY = \sqrt{49 + 4}

XY = \sqrt{53}

Therefore the line of segment XY is √53.

Samantha puts an initial $500 into a savings account. The account has a 4% annual compound interest rate. What is the function t
konstantin123 [22]
Hello! I can help you with this!

a. The function that would best represent Samantha's account is f(5) = 500(1 + 0.04)^5. This is because $500 is the principal, the interest rate is 4%, and we're looking for the amount in the savings account 5 years later.

b. Okay. 1 = 0.04 is 1.04. 1.04^5 is 1.216652902. It's a long decimal, but don't delete it. Multiply that decimal by 500 and you get 608.32645 and other numbers behind it or 608 when rounded to the nearest dollar. Samantha will have about $608 in her savings account in 5 years.

Note: The formula goes like this: f(x) = P(1 + r)^x. This means, you add 1 and the simple interest rate in decimal form together and raise that up by the exponent. There is no shortcuts for this, so you'll have to use the calculator. There will be a very long decimal, but don't clear it. Instead, multiply it by the principal to get the answer. It seems very complicating, but if you do this right, it gets easier overtime and you'll make less errors. There are more complex problems out there, so this formula is very important, but it was kept simple for this question.
