2x + b = w
2x = w - b
x = (w - b)/2
Answer:
12. 9
Step-by-step explanation:
12. Using Pythagoras theorem
let shortest distance be = x
8 square + 5 square = x square
64 + 25 = x square
89 = x square
Therefore x = square root of 89
Thus X = 9
Answer:
50
Step-by-step explanation:
30 divided by 0.6 equals 50

Using an exponential function, it is found that it takes 5.42 years for the car to halve in value.
<h3>What is an exponential function?</h3>
A decaying exponential function is modeled by:

In which:
- A(0) is the initial value.
- r is the decay rate, as a decimal.
In this problem, the car depreciates 12% a year in value, hence r = 0.12 and the equation is given by:
.
It halves in value at t years, for which A(t) = 0.5A(0), hence:






t = 5.42.
It takes 5.42 years for the car to halve in value.
