Given:
Charlie bought a new computer for $450 with his credit card.
He plans to pay the minimum payment of $25 per month.
To find:
The rate of change.
Solution:
Let y be the remaining amount of loan after x months.
Initial amount of loan = $450
Payment of one month = $25
Payment of x months = $25x
Now,
Remining amount = Initial amount of loan - Payment of x months
...(i)
The slope intercept form is
...(ii)
where, m is slope and b is y-intercept.
From (i) and (ii), we get

Therefore, the rate of change is -25 dollars.
F(x)=(-2/((x+y-2)^(1/2))-(x+y+2)^(1/2)
the only irrational part of this expression is the (x+y-2)^(1/2) in the denominator, so, to rationalize this, you multiply the numerator and denominator by the denominator, as well as the other parts of the expression
also, you must multiply the -sqrt(x+y+2) by sqrt(x+y-2)/sqrt(x+y-2) to form a common denominator
(-2)/(x+y-2)^(1/2)-(x+y+2)^(1/2)(x+y-2)^(1/2)/(x+y-2)^(1/2)
(common denominator)
(-2-(x^2+xy+2x+xy+y^2+2y-2x-2y-4))/(x+y-2)^(1/2)
(FOIL)
(-2-x^2-y^2-2xy+4)/(x+y-2)^(1/2)
(Distribute negative)
(-x^2-y^2-2xy+2)/(x+y-2)^(1/2)
(Simplify numerator)
(-x^2-y^2-2xy+2)(x+y-2)^(1/2)/(x+y-2)^(1/2)(x+y-2)^(1/2)
(Rationalize denominator by multiplying both top and bottom by sqrt)
(-x^2-y^2-2xy+2)((x+y-2)^(1/2))/(x+y-2)
(The function is now rational)
=(-x^2-y^2-2xy+2)(sqrt(x+y-2))/(x+y-2)
Answer:
1872
Step-by-step explanation:on edge
Answer: a) 236,000.
b) 2021
Step-by-step explanation:
Given : Population Growth The population P (in thousands) of Oriando,Florida from 1980 through 2009 can be modeled by
(1)
where t = 0 corresponds to 1980.
Then , for 2009
t= 2009-1980=29
a. ⇒The population of Phoenix in 2009 = 


Hence, the population of Orlando in 2009 was about 236,000.
b) Substitute p= 300 in (1) , we get
(Divide both sides by 130)
Taking Natural log on both sides,


Hence, The year Orlando will have a population of 300,000 =1980+41 =2021
