Answer:

The value of the quantity after 87 months will be of 599.64.

Step-by-step explanation:

A quantity with an initial value of 600 decays exponentially at a rate of 0.05% every 6 years.

This means that the quantity, after t periods of 6 years, is given by:

Q(t) = 600(1 - 0.0005)^{t}

What is the value of the quantity after 87 months, to the nearest hundredth?

6 years = 6*12 = 72 months

So 87 months is 87/72 = 1.2083 periods of 6 years. So we have to find Q(1.2083).

Q(t) = 600(1 - 0.0005)^{t}

Q(1.2083) = 600(1 - 0.0005)^{1.2083} = 599.64

The value of the quantity after 87 months will be of 599.64.

Answer:

  • y = -3x² + 7x - 9

Step-by-step explanation:

<u>Given quadratic function:</u>

  • y = ax² + bx + c

<u>Points on the graph:</u>

  • (-2,-35), (1,-5), (3,- 15)

<u>Substitute values of x and y and solve the system of equations:</u>

  • -35 = a(-2)² + b(-2) + c ⇒ -35 = 4a - 2b + c   ⇔ eq 1
  • -5 = a(1)² + b(1) + c ⇒ -5 = a + b + c               ⇔ eq 2
  • -15 = a(3)² + b(3) + c ⇒ -15 = 9a + 3b + c       ⇔ eq 3

<u>Subtract eq 2 from eq 1:</u>

  • -35 - (-5) = 4a - 2b + c - a - b - c
  • -30 = 3a - 3b
  • b = a + 10                                                         ⇔ eq 4

<u>Subtract eq 2 from eq 3:</u>

  • -15 - (-5) = 9a + 3b + c - a - b - c
  • -10 = 8a + 2b
  • b = -4a - 5                                                       ⇔ eq 5

<u>Compare eq 4 and eq 5, solve for a:</u>

  • a + 10 = -4a - 5
  • a + 4a = -5 - 10
  • 5a = -15
  • a = -3

<u>Find the value of b using eq 4:</u>

  • b = -3 + 10
  • b = 7

<u>Find the value of c using eq 2:</u>

  • -5 = -3 + 7 + c
  • c = -5 - 4
  • c = -9

<u>We now have a, b and c:, the function is:</u>

  • y = -3x² + 7x - 9
