Answer:

<h2><u>A. 9 feet</u></h2>

Step-by-step explanation:

The perimeter of the garden is already found

it is 2l + 2w = 48, the half of it is P/2 = 24

but we know that P/2=l + w, so we can find w=P/2-l = 24 - 15 = 9 feet

the answer is <u>A. 9 feet</u>

<u></u>

<u></u>

<h3><u>OR</u></h3>

<u></u>

30 + 2w = 48

2w = 18

<u>w = 9 ft</u>

Barbara made a bad investment. Rather than earning interest, her money is decreasing in value by 11% each week! After just one w
pochemuha

Answer: She started with $160.

It will take 6 weeks before she has less than half of what she originally invested.

Step-by-step explanation:

If her money is decreasing in value by 11% each week, it means that the rate at which it is decreasing is exponential.

We would apply the formula for exponential decay which is expressed as

A = P(1 - r)^t

Where

A represents the value of the investment after t weeks.

t represents the number of weeks.

P represents the initial value of the investment.

r represents rate of depreciation.

From the information given,

A = $142.40

r = 11% = 11/100 = 0.11

t = 1

Therefore

142.40 = P(1 - 0.11)^1

142.40 = P(0.89)

P = 142.4/0.89

P = 160

For her to have half of what she invested originally, then

80 = 160(0.89)^t

80/160 = (0.89)^t

0.5 = (0.89)^t

Taking log of both sides to base 10

Log 0.5 = log0.89^t = tlog0.89

- 0.3010 = - 0.051t

t = - 0.3010/- 0.051

t = 5.9

Approximately 6 weeks
