To complete the table, just use the given equation to solve for the corresponding values of y. and i think the formula is wrong, it should be
y = <span>25,000 • 0.95^x</span>
at x = 1
<span>a0 = y = 25,000 • 0.95^x
</span>a0 = <span>25,000 • 0.95^(1)
a0 = 23750.00
at x = 2
a1 = </span>y = <span>25,000 • 0.95^x
a1 </span>= <span>25,000 • 0.95^( 2 )
a1 = 22562.50
at x = 3
a2 = </span>y = <span>25,000 • 0.95^x
a2 = </span> <span>25,000 • 0.95^( 3 )
a2 = 21434.38
</span>
Let the number of coats Michael has = x
As given, Minnie gathers 3 times as many coats as Michael
So, Minnie has = 3x
Total number of coats = 52
Equation becomes,



Hence, Michael contributed 13 coats.
Okie, we do the factor
we have 1/5 x+ 29/5= 1/5 x+ 1/5 x29= 1/5(x+29)
And we have done
Have a good day
