Answer:

$x = -5$

Step-by-step explanation:

<u>This is for if you are trying to solve for x. If that is not your goal, do not heed my words.</u>

Subtract 20 from both sides.

$4x + 20 = ?$

becomes

$4x = -20$

Divide both sides by 4.

$4x = -20$

becomes

$x = -5$

And that's how you'd solve for x.

The equation V = 16300 (0.94)^t represents the value (in dollars) of a car t years after its purchase. Use this equation to comp

Dafna1 [17]

Solution:

Given:

$V=16300(0.94)^t$

The value of a car after t - years will depreciate.

Hence, the equation given represents the value after depreciation over t-years.

To get the rate, we compare the equation with the depreciation formula.

$\begin{gathered} A=P(1-r)^t \\ \text{where;} \\ P\text{ is the original value} \\ r\text{ is the rate} \\ t\text{ is the time } \end{gathered}$

Hence,

$\begin{gathered} V=16300(0.94)^t \\ A=P(1-r)^t \\ \\ \text{Comparing both equations,} \\ P=16300 \\ 1-r=0.94 \\ 1-0.94=r \\ r=0.06 \\ To\text{ percentage,} \\ r=0.06\times100=6\text{ \%} \\ \\ \text{Hence, } \\ P\text{ is the purchase price} \\ r\text{ is the rate} \end{gathered}$

Therefore, the value of this car is decreasing at a rate of 6%. The purchase price of the car was $16,300.

2) Lisa is ordering sand from the Internet, On one site she found sand on sale for

Anastasy [175]

For this case we must find the unit cost (dollars per pound) of each site and then compare.

We take into account that:

1kg equals 2.205 pounds

So, we have:

Site 1:

$C = 2.25 \frac {dollars} {pound}$

Site 2:

$5kg = 5 (2.205\ pounds) = 11.025 pounds$

So, the unit cost is:

$C = \frac {14} {11.025} \frac {dollars} {pound} = 1.27 \frac {dollars} {pound}$

Thus, the best deal is on site 2.

ANswer:

The best deal is on site 2.

Vsevolod [243]

120/4 is 30
You'll be able to put 4 nails thirty times.
You put them every 6 feet
So, you have 5 feet before running out.
