<em><u>Solution:</u></em>
<em><u>The decreasing function is given as:</u></em>
Where,
y is future value
a is initial value
r is decreasing rate in decimal
t is time period
From given,
a = 25000
number of years = x
future value = P
Therefore,
Thus the function is found
Answer: s = 36
Step-by-step explanation: The key to solving multistep equations is isolating the variable. This is why I first subtracted 14 on each side. This left me with 1/3s=12. Then, to isolate "s" even more, I didvided by 1/3 on each side. This gave me s = 36 as an answer.
To divide by a fraction, use "keep change flip." Keep the first mumber, change division to multiplication, and flip the fraction. I included a picture of me doing this.
