Depreciation Formula: A = P(1 - rt)

P is principle amount
r is rate
t is time

Step-by-step explanation:

Step 1: Define

Identify variables

P = 36001

r = 16% = 0.16

t = 3

Step 2: Find Cost

Substitute in variables [Depreciation Formula]: A = 36001(1 - 0.16 · 3)
(Parenthesis) Multiply: A = 36001(1 - 0.48)
(Parenthesis) Subtract: A = 36001(0.52)
Multiply: A = 18720.5

Select all of the expressions that have a value of 18

Annette [7]

Answer:

$(a)\ 324 \div 18$ ; $(b)\ 468 \div 26$ and $(d)\ 1062 \div 59$

Step-by-step explanation:

Required

Select which expression equals 18

$(a)\ 324 \div 18$

This gives:

$324 \div 18 - 18$

$(b)\ 468 \div 26$

This gives:

$468 \div 26 = 18$

$(c)\ 724 \div 10$

This gives:

$724 \div 10 = 72.4$

$(d)\ 1062 \div 59$

This gives:

$1062 \div 59 = 18$

$(e)\ 51071 \div 60$

This gives:

$51071 \div 60 = 851.182$

From the above computations:

$(a)\ 324 \div 18$ ; $(b)\ 468 \div 26$ and $(d)\ 1062 \div 59$ are equivalents of 18

Solve for x: 1 1/5x−2 1/3<1/7x+1 1/2

Mashcka [7]

Answer: $x$

Step-by-step explanation:

$1\frac{1}{5}x-2\frac{1}{3}$

Add $2\frac{1}{3}$ on both sides and subtract $\frac{1}{7}x$ on both sides to leave x's on the left side and independent values on the right.

$(2\frac{1}{3}-\frac{1}{7}x) +1\frac{1}{5}x-2\frac{1}{3}$

$1\frac{1}{5}x-\frac{1}{7}x$

Solve the fractions.

$1(\frac{1}{5}-\frac{1}{7})x$

$1(\frac{(1)(7)-(5)(1)}{(5)(7)} )x$

$1(\frac{7-5}{35} )x$

$1(\frac{2}{35} )x$

$1\frac{2}{35}x$

Convert the mixed fraction $1\frac{2}{35}$ to an improper fraction. You can do this by multiplying 1 times 35 and adding 2.

$\frac{37}{35}x$

Now use the reciprocal (inverse fraction) and multiply on both sides to isolate x.

$(\frac{35}{37}) (\frac{37}{35})x$

$x$

Please help me look at the picture

harina [27]

The answer is choice A.

We're told that the left and right walls of the cube (LMN and PQR) are parallel planes. Any line contained in one of those planes will not meet another line contained in another plane. With choice A, it's possible to have the front and back walls be non-parallel and still meet the initial conditions. If this is the case, then OS won't be paralle to NR. Similarly, LP won't be parallel to MQ.
