Just add a decimal after 20 because it is a whole number.
20.00 - 1.97 = 18.03
Just remember to line up your decimals when subtracting.

A new car is purchased for 24600 dollars. The value of the car depreciates at 13.75% per year. What will the value of the car be
liraira [26]

Answer:

The value will be $1,411.20

Step-by-step explanation:

What we do here is to set up an exponential equation to calculate the value.

Mathematically it will look like this;

V = I(1-r)^n

where V is the future value

I is the initial amount = 24,600

r is rate of decrease = 13.75% = 13.75/100 = 0.1375

n is the number of years = 15 years

substituting these values, we have

V = 24,600(1-0.1375)^15

V = 24600(0.8625)^15

V = 1,411.165582454129

= $1,411.20

Lashonda is going to rent a truck for one day. There are two companies she can choose from, and they have the following prices.C
musickatia [10]
Answer:
30 < m
The solution would be (30, ∞)

Explanation:
For company A:
The charge is: $96 for any number of mileage ..............> I
For company B:
The charge is $75 fixed and 0.7 for each mileage m. This means that the charge is: 75 + 0.7m .................> II

We want the charge of company A to be less than the charge of company B. This means that we want I to be less than II.
Therefore,
96 < 75 + 0.7m
96 - 75 < 0.7m
21 < 0.7m
21/0.7 < m
30 < m

This means that for any mileage greater than 30, the charge of company A will be less than the charge of company B

Hope this helps :)

Hanks pickup can travel 85 miles on 5 gallons of gas. How many gallons will his pickup need to travel 34 miles?
tankabanditka [31]

Hank will need 2 gallons of gas. 85/5 is 17, so Hank can go 17 miles on 1 gallon of gas. 17•2= 34, to go 34 miles you will need 2 gallons of gas.
