When someone purchases a new car and begins to drive it, generally speaking, the resale value of the car (in dollars) goes down

each year. Let represent the number of years since purchase and represent the resale value of thecar (in dollars). The linear function that models the resale value based on the number of years since purchase is y = 32000 - 3500x. What can we say about the rate of change and the initial value? Answer fast please 25pts. multiple choice.
A.The rate of change is 32000 and the the initial value is -3500. $32000 represents the decrease of value per year and -3500 represents the initial value of the car.


B.The rate of change is 3500 and the initial value is 32000. 3500 means that the car increases its value by $3500 every year and the initial value is $32000.


C,The rate of change is -3500 and the initial value is 32000. -3500 represents the initial value of the car.


D.The rate of change is -3500 and the initial value is 32000. 32,000 represents the initial value of the car and -3500 is the decrease in value of the car every year.

Answer:

let height of ||g be 'b', then base of ||g be 3b.

area of ||g=base×height

75cm

2

=3b×b

b

2

=25

b=5cm, therefore height =5cm

Lytrisha claims that y= 2x2 + 3 is a function but not a linear function select the statement that supports lytrishas claim
Gnom [1K]

Answer:

B

Step-by-step explanation:

A is wrong, it increases

C is wrong, the coefficient does not determine if it is linear (straight), the exponent does.

D is wrong, you don't need to know a point to determine if it is linear, (if you have 3 points you can though. )

A population of insects increases at a rate of 1.5% per day. About how long will it take the population to double?
never [62]

The <em><u>correct answer</u></em> is:

46.6 days

Explanation:

The general form for exponential growth is

A=p(1+r)^t, where A is the total amount, p is the initial amount, r is the percent of growth, and t is the amount of time (in this case, days).

We do not know the initial amount, the total amount, or the amount of time.  We do know that r, the percent of growth, is 1.5%; 1.5% = 1.5/100 = 0.015:

A=p(1+0.015)^t

We also know we want the total amount, A, to be twice that of the initial amount, p:

2p = p(1+0.015)^t&#10;\\&#10;2p=p(1.015)^t

Divide both sides by p:

\frac{2p}{p}=\frac{p(1.015)^t}{p}&#10;\\&#10;\\ 2=1.015^t

Using logarithms to solve this,

\log_{1.015}(2)=t&#10;\\&#10;\\46.6=t
