Answers:

Independent Variable = time = t
Dependent Variable = height = h(t)

======================================================

Explanation:

The horizontal axis always represents the independent variable. Often it is x, but in this case, it's t. The time value does not depend on the height. Time does it's own thing.

The height depends on the time value. The vertical axis, or y axis, is always representing the dependent variable. The notation h(t) helps us see that h must be paired with t, in order to find the value of h so to speak. As the time value changes, so does the height of the ball.

A $20,000 business computer depreciates at a rate of 15% per year. Which of the following equations would model the value of the

elena-s [515]

Answer:

$f(t)=20000(0.85)^t$

Step-by-step explanation:

So the initial value of the business computer is $20,000. It depreciates by 15% per year. This is exponential decay. The standard function for exponential decay is:

$f(t)=P(r)^t$

Where P is the initial value, r is the rate of decay, and t is the time in years.

Since the computer decreases by 15% per year, this means that each year, the computer will be 1-15% or 85% than its previous value.

Therefore, the equation that models the value of the computer is:

$f(t)=20000(0.85)^t$
