You want to reduce the size of a picture to place in a

Answer 1

Answer:

Exact answer: y = 6.14125 inches, not completely sure though.

Step-by-step explanation:

Assuming that r represents the rate, A represents the principal amount, and t represents the times scanned, we know that A = 10 inches, t = 3 scans, and r = 15% or 0.15

I'm not sure what y represents, but it seems to be the final size of the picture after the scans are performed, so the equation could be:

y = A × $(1-r)^{t}$

So, y = (10) × $(1 - 0.15)^{3}$

y = 10 × 0.85³

y = 6.14125 inches
