Answer:

<em>The uniform rate of depreciation is $56,333 per year, or 11% per year.</em>

Step-by-step explanation:

<u>Rate of Depreciation</u>

If some object has a certain value P and after some time t its value decreases to Q, the rate of depreciation is a measure of how much its value changed per unit time.

It can be calculated as:

\displaystyle R=\frac{P-Q}{t}

It can also be expressed as a percentage, dividing the previous value by P.

The school bus reduces its value from $512,000 to $343,000 in 3 years, thus:

\displaystyle R=\frac{512,000-343,000}{3}

\displaystyle R=\frac{169,000}{3}

R = 56,333 $/year

Expressed as a percentage:

R = 56,333 / 512,000 = 0.11

R = 11%/year

The uniform rate of depreciation is $56,333 per year, or 11% per year.

Which lines are perpendicular to the line y – 1 = (x+2)? Check all that apply.
Ilya [14]

Answer:

none of them

Step-by-step explanation:

Two lines are perpendicular when satisfy the next equation: m1*m2 = -1, where m1 and m2 are the slopes o the lines.

line 1:  

y – 1 = (x+2)

y = x + 3

slope of line 1 = 1

line 2:  

y + 2 = –3(x – 4)

y + 2 = -3*x + 12

y =  -3*x + 10

slope of line 2 = -3

m1*m2 = 1*(-3 ) = -3

They are not perpendicular

line 3:  

y − 5 = 3(x + 11)

y − 5 = 3*x + 33

y = 3*x + 38

slope of line 3 = 3

m1*m3 = 1*3 = 3

They are not perpendicular

line 4:  

y = -3x –  

slope of line 4 = -3

m1*m4 = 1*(-3 ) = -3

They are not perpendicular

line 5:  

y = x – 2

slope of line 5 = 1

m1*m5 = 1*1 = 1

They are not perpendicular

line 6:  

3x + y = 7

y = -3x + 7

slope of line 6 = -3

m1*m6 = 1*(-3 ) = -3

They are not perpendicular

Simplify the trigonometric expression sin(4x) +2 sin(2x) using Double-Angle<br> Identities.
emmasim [6.3K]

Answer:

8sin(x)cos³(x)

Step-by-step explanation:

sin(4x) +2 sin(2x)  = 2sin(2x)*cos(2x) + 2sin(2x) = 2sin(2x)(cos2x + 1)=

= 2sin(2x)(cos²x - sin²x + cos²x + sin²x)=²2sin(2x)*(2cos²x)=

= 4*2sin(x)*cos(x)*cos²(x)= 8sin(x)cos³(x)
