8 0

Answer:

0.08, or 8%

Step-by-step explanation:

The appropriate formula is i = p*r*t, where p is the principal, r is the interest rate as a decimal fraction, and t is the time in years.

We want to calculate r when i, p and t are known.

                                                           i

Solving i = p*r*t for r, we get r = ------------

                                                       p*t

The interest rate in this case is

        $1600

r = ---------------- = 0.08, or 8%

      $5000*4

if your car gets 26 miles per gallon how much does it cost to drive 420 miles when gas is $2.80 per gallon​
Kitty [74]

Answer:

$45.22

Step-by-step explanation:

The number of miles per gallon can be represented by the ratio:

\frac{miles}{gallon}=\frac{26}{1}

Since we know the unit rate of 26 miles per gallon of gas, we can set up a proportion, or equivalent ratios, to find the number of gallons needed for 420 miles:

\frac{26}{1}=\frac{420}{x}, where 'x' is the number of gallons of gas

cross-multiply and divide:  26x = 420 or x ≈ 16.15 gallons

If gas is $2.80 per gallon, take the total number of gallons needed and multiply by $2.80:

16.15 x $2.80 = $45.22

The cost of renting a car for a day is $0.70 per mile plus a $20 flat fee
Andreyy89

Answer:

a) y = .70x + 20

-To find this, use the rate as x since it will change based on the number of miles. Since 20 is a flat fee, it can be added at the end as a constant.

b) This graph forms a straight line.

-This is because the answer in a is a linear equation.

c) The slope is .70 and the y-intercept is 20.

-For this one, the y-intercept is always the constant at the end of the equation and the slope is the coefficient of x.

Describe the end behavior of the function f(x)=-2x^4- x^3 +3.
Hoochie [10]

Answer:

B

Step-by-step explanation:

For a polynomial , the behaviour as x gets large is determined by the term of greatest degree,

f(x) = - 2x^{4} - x³ + 3

Is of even degree with a negative leading coefficient , then

f(x) → - ∞ as x → + ∞ and f(x) → - ∞ as x → - ∞
