A business purchases a computer system for $5,300. The value of the system decreases at a rate of 12% per year. In how many year

s will the computer be less than $2200?​
Mathematics

6 0

Answer:

7

Step-by-step explanation:

If a system decreases by 12% it's the same as multiplying it by .12-1 or .88

This means we can create the following equation

computer value=5300(.88)^n

where n is the number of years

We can then plug in the value of the computer and solve for n

2200=5300(.88)^n

Divide by 5300 and get

.415=.88^n

Then put this into log form and get

\frac{log(.415)}{log.88}

Evaluate this into your calculator and get n=6.69 which I would probably just round to 7

What is the distance between the y-intercepts of the lines? Adding a picture please help
DerKrebs [107]

The equation of a line is:

y = mx + c

The m is the gradient of the line, and the c is the y-intercept of the line

That means that the y-intercept of [y = -4x + 3]  is 3

and the y-intercept of [y = -4x + 4] is 4

So the distance between the two y-intercepts is:

4 - 3 = <u>1</u>

26. If the area of the rectangle shown below is given by the expression 3x + 7x - 6,
Crazy boy [7]

Answer:

D=(3x-2)

Step-by-step explanation:

Area=length×width =3x²+7x-6

thus a=3 b=7 c=-6

W=(x+3)

since c is -6 it has to be the product of 3(from W)=-2

since a=3 multiply by x (from W) 3×x=3x

=3x-2

check if its correct.

3x-2×x+3

x(3x-2)+3(3x-2)

3x²-2x+9x-6

3x²+7x-6 thus its true
