Answer:

A) 20%

Step-by-step explanation:

A) ✅

500000(0.2) = 100,000

500000 - 100,000 = 400,000

B) ❌

500000(0.25) = 125,000

500000 - 125,000 = 375,000

C) ❌

500000(0.3) = 150,000

500000 - 150,000 = 350,000

D) ❌

500000(0.35) = 175,000

500000 - 175,000 = 325,000

decided to purchase a new Toyota 4Runner for $25,635. you have promised your daughter that the SUV will be hers when the car is

Stella [2.4K]

Answer:

y = -3000x + 25,635

Step-by-step explanation:

well if the inital value of the car is $25,635 this means that when

x = 0 y = 25,635

(0 , 25635)

this will be our first point

Now if you tell us that in 1 year depreciate in value $3,000

this means thaw when

x = 1 y = 25,635 - 3,000

x = 1 y = 22,635

(1, 22635)

Now that we have 2 points we can have the equation

First we take the slope as follows

m = (y2 - y1) / (x2 - x1)

m = (22,635 - 25,635) / (1 - 0)

m = -3000 / 1

m = -3000

after calculating the slope we have to replace it in the following formula

(y - y1) = m (x - x1)

y - 25,635 = -3000 ( x - 0)

y - 25,635 = -3000x

y = -3000x + 25,635

Finally we replace the value of y by 10000

10,000 = -3000x + 25,635

10,000 - 25,635 = -3000x

-15,635 = -3000x

-15,635/-3000 = x

5.21167 = x years

These are the years it would take for the value to be 10,000

to know the days we simply multiply by 365

5.21167 * 365 = 1902.26 days

Beatrice calculated the slope between two pairs of points.

kumpel [21]

Answer:

The answer in the procedure

Step-by-step explanation:

we know that

The formula to calculate the slope between two points is equal to

$m=\frac{y2-y1}{x2-x1}$

step 1

Find the slope between (-3, -2) and (1, 0)

$m=\frac{0+2}{1+3}$

$m=\frac{2}{4}=\frac{1}{2}$

Find the equation of the line

$y-y1=m(x-x1)$

with m and the point (1,0)

substitute

$y-0=\frac{1}{2}(x-1)$

$y=\frac{1}{2}x-\frac{1}{2}$

step 2

Find the slope between (-2, -1) and (4, 2)

$m=\frac{2+1}{4+2}$

$m=\frac{3}{6}=\frac{1}{2}$

Find the equation of the line

$y-y1=m(x-x1)$

with m and the point (4,2)

substitute

$y-2=\frac{1}{2}(x-4)$

$y=\frac{1}{2}x-2+2$

$y=\frac{1}{2}x$

Compare the equation of the two lines

The two lines are parallel, because their slope is the same, but are different lines

therefore

Beatrice's conclusion is incorrect

All of these points are not on the same line, because are different parallel lines

The slope between (-2,-1) and (1,0) is equal to $\frac{1}{2}$

What is 79 1/2% of $7570?

Mariulka [41]

Answer:

$6018.15

Step-by-step explanation:

"is" number always goes on TOP "of" number.

"is" number is 79 1/2%

"of" number is $7570

79 1/2 % / $7570 * 100 = $6018.15 

To find out if the answer is correct :

6018.15 / 7570 * 100 = 79.12%
