Answer:

The cost in 3 years is $80.19.

Step-by-step explanation:

The cost of computer component is $110 today.

The cost is decreasing at a rate of 10% per year.

When it decreases by 10% per year then it is exponential.

Initial cost is $110. When it decreases 10% per year, the decay factor is 1-0.10 =0.90.

So, we could use the exponential formula y=ab^{x}

Where 'a' is initial cost and b is decay factor.

Our equation would by plug in 'a' as 110 and 'b' as 0.90.

We get

y= 110(0.9)^{x}

Now, to find the cost in 3 years, use x as 3.

y=110(0.9)^{3}

Which is simplified to

y=$80.19

Answer:

4√3.

Step-by-step explanation:

If the height is h then

tan 60 = h / (1/2*8)

tan 60 = h/4

h = 4 tan 60

   = 4 * √3.

You paint 13 of a wall in 14 hours. At that rate, how long will it take you to paint one wall?
iogann1982 [59]
Ou paint 1/3 of a wall in 1/4 hour. At that rate, how long will it take you to paint one wall? rate = (area/time)
------
rate = (1/3)/(1/4) = 4/3 job/hr
-----
time for job = 3/4 hr/job = 45 minutes to do the whole job.

Answer:

n = 2 + 2√3 and n = 2 - 2√3

Step-by-step explanation:

Let the number be n.

Then n² + 1 = 4n.

Rearranging this in proper quadratic format:

n² - 4n + 1

Here the coefficients are a = 1, b = -4 and c = 1.

Then the discriminant is b²-4ac, or (-4)²-4(1)(1) ), or 16 - 4, or 12.

By applying the quadratic formula, we find that the roots are:

      - (-4) ± √12

n = ------------------

              2

or n = 2 + 2√3 and n = 2 - 2√3
