The decay factor here is 0.85, and it means the car’s value changes by 85% every year, or goes down by 15% every year.
The formula for exponential decay is y = a(1 - b)^x
y is the final amount.
a is the initial amount, which is $30,000 in this case.
(1 - b) is the decay factor, or the number the original value gets multiplied by each year, which is 0.85 here.
b is the percent decrease in decimal form. In this case, we can find it using the formula (1 - b) = 0.85. We soon find that b = 0.15, or 15%.
x is the number of years.
Given: k= midpoint
hk=x+6
hj=4x-6
Remember midpoint cuts the segment hj in equal parts that means hk=kj and hk+kj=hj
hk+hk=hj
2hk=hj
2hk=hj
2 (x+6)=(4x-6)
2x+12=4x-6
2x-2x+12=4x-2x-6
12=2x-6
12+6=2x-6+6
18=2x
18/2=2x/2
9=x
hk=kj=x+6=(9)+6=15
kj=15

Step-by-step explanation:
Answer:
6.46
Step-by-step explanation:
h(t) = (1/2)
+ v0t + h0
Origin is at surface of water (h = 0), up is positive.
a = -g = -9.8 m/
v0 = 25 m/s
h0 = 50 m
h(t) = -4.9t2 + 25t + 50
Find t when
7 = 
+ 25t + 50
- 25t - 43 = 0
t = [1/(2*4.9)] [25 ±√(
+ 4*4.9*43)]
t = (0.102)(25 ± 38.312)
t > 0 ⇒ use only the positive square root
t = (0.102)(25 + 38.312) ≅ 6.46 s
It is 7m above the water at about 6.46 s
