FIRST MODEL: Well the model for the value of the house is:

V = Value
t = Years passed {t≥0}
-----------------------
When t=0, V=120000
When t=1, V=132000
When t=2, V=145200
etc... etc...
---------------------------
Now, this model is actually curved so there is no constant rate of growth each month. We can only calculate what the rate of growth is at a particular time. If we want to find out the rate of growth at a particular time, we must differentiate the formula (model) above.
--------------------------




Plug any value of (t) that is greater than 0 into the formula above to find out how quickly the investment is growing. If you want to find out how quickly the investment was growing after 1 month had passed, transform t into 1/12.
The rate of growth is being measured in years, not months. So when t=1/12, the rate of growth turns out to be 11528.42 per annum.
SECOND MODEL (What you are ultimately looking for):
V = Value of house
t = months that have gone by {t≥0}
Formula above differentiated:






When t=1, dV/dt = 960.70 (2dp)
dV/dt in this case will measure the rate of growth monthly. As more money is accumulated, this rate of growth will rise. The rate of growth is constantly increasing as the graph of V is actually a curve. You can only find out the rate at which the house value is growing monthly at a particular time.
Answer:
Area of Mrs. Rockwell's lot is equal to the area of Mr. Brown's lot
Step-by-step explanation:
We can suppose the dimensions of Mrs. Rockwell's lot to be:
Length = x
Width = y
Then, we can write the dimensions of Mr. Brown's lot as:
Length = half as long as Mrs. Rockwell's lot
Length = 0.5x
Width = twice as wide as Mrs. Rockwell's lot
Width = 2y
Area of Mrs. Rockwell's lot = Length * Width
= x*y
Area of Mrs. Rockwell's lot = xy
Area of Mr. Brown's lot = 0.5x*2y
Area of Mr. Brown's lot = xy
<u>Area of Mrs. Rockwell's lot </u><u>is equal</u><u> to the area of Mr. Brown's lot, as calculated above</u>.
Disclaimer: Exchange rates vary almost on a constant basis, so it is best to always have an up-to-date chart from an online source. For the purposes of this problem, we don't have to worry about the rates changing.
------------------
25 U.S Dollars = 20 Euros
25/20 U.S. Dollars = 20/20 Euros
1.25 U.S. Dollars = 1 Euro
<h3>The exchange rate is 1.25 U.S. Dollars per Euro</h3>
Saying "per Euro" is the same as saying "per 1 Euro". I divided both sides of the second equation by 20 so that I could turn the "20 Euros" into "1 Euro".
Given the cost of $28 to rent a trailer for an x amount of hours:
The expression is 28x
