An exponential decay function is:
f=ir^t, f=final amount, i=initial amount, r=common ratio, t=number of times ratio is applied...We can see the initial value is 17000 so all we really have to find is the common ratio, or "rate" as some call it :P If we look at the second point, when t=1 we can see:
14280=17000r
r=357/425
r=0.84
So in five years the SUV will be worth more than the car by:
17000(0.84^5)-12000(0.89^5)
$408.73 (to the nearest cent)
Answer:
The y-intercept of the equation is 100 and represents the initial studio-use fee.
Step-by-step explanation:
In this equation, our t variable (time) is the equivalent of the x-variable on a graph. This is because it is the variable that we 'change' to see its impact on y. We see how the amount of hours affects the price. So our P variable (price) is the equivalent of y on a graph. The y-intercept is where the line crosses the y-axis on a graph. At this point, x=0.
Since P is our y, and t is our x, to find the y-intercept, we simply need to make t = 0.
P = 50(0) + 100
P = 100
Therefore the y-intercept is 100.
In this context, t represents time, so even though the studio has been used for 0 hours, the price is still 100. This is because the 100 represents the initial studio-use fee, and using it for certain amounts of time adds onto the initial fee of $100. The hourly fee is represented by 50t so it costs $50 more for each hour of use.
Hope this helped!
I think the answer to (Y) may be 40 cubic units
Answer:
1. real number, irrational number
2. rational number, real number
Minus 9 from both sides
7x = 49
X = 7
