E=egg farm

x=distantce between  the Berto´s trains and the meeting point.

t=time where the trains meet up

⇒110 miles/h                                          ⇒85miles/h

[---------------------------E----------------------]-------------------------------------X

[............12 miles.......][........34 miles.....][------------ x ----------------------]

distance between Berto´s train and Eduardo´s train=

=12 miles+34 miles=46 miles.

S=d/t      ⇒d=S*t

S=seed

d=distance

T=time

Eduardo´s train;

46 miles+x=t*110 miles/h  ⇒x=t*110 miles/h-46 miles  (1)

Berto´s train;

x=t*85 miles/h  (2)

With the equations (1) and (2) we suggest this system equations:

x=t* 110 miles/h-46 miles

x=t*85 miles/h

we solve this system equiations :

t*110 miles/h-46 miles=t*85 miles/h

110t miles/h-85t miles/h=46 miles

25 t miles/h=46 miles

t=46 miles/25 miles/h=1,84 hour  (≈1 hour, 50 minutes, 24 seconds)

x=t*85 miles/h=156,4 miles

Solution: 1,84 hour

salantis [7]

Answer:

$7,986.25

Step-by-step explanation:

We can use the following formula to solve:

A=P(1-r)^t

<em>P = principal value</em>

<em>r = rate (decimal)</em>

<em>t = time (years)</em>

<em />

First, change 15% into a decimal:

15% -> \frac{15}{100} -> 0.15

Since 2015 and 2020 are 5 years apart, we will use 5 for t. Now, plug the values into the equation:

A=17,999(1-0.15)^5

A=7,986.25

Your car would be worth $7,986.25
