The value of a car bought new for $28900 decreases 15% each year. Identify the function for the value of the car. Does the funct

Eva8 [605]

Answer:

<u>V (t) = 28,900 - 4,335t</u>

<u>The function clearly represent a decay</u>

Step-by-step explanation:

1. Let's review the information given to us to answer the question correctly:

Value of the car = $ 28,900

Annual depreciation = 15% = 0.15

2. Identify the function for the value of the car. Does the function represent growth or decay?

Let y represent the value of the car after t years of utilization, let p the price of the car and d, the annual depreciation, therefore:

V (t) = p - (d * t * p)

Replacing with the values we know:

V (t) = 28,900 - (0.15 * t * 28.900)

V (t) = 28,900 - (0.15 * t * 28.900)

<u>V (t) = 28,900 - 4,335t</u>

<u>The function clearly represent a decay.</u>

Answer:

4/13 h ≈ 0.308 h
22 9/13 km ≈ 22.7 km

Step-by-step explanation:

Mary and Amaruk are starting 35 -15 = 20 km apart. Their closing speed is 40 +25 = 65 km/h. The time it will take to close the gap between them is ...

t = (20 km)/(65 km/h) = 20/65 h = 4/13 h ≈ 0.308 h

They will pass each other after 4/13 hours, about 18 minutes 28 seconds.

__

In that time, Mary will have increased her distance from Hall Beach by ...

d = (4/13 h)(25 km/h) = 100/13 km = 7 9/13 km

Her distance from Hall Beach when she passes Amaruk will be ...

15 km + 7 9/13 km = 22 9/13 km ≈ 22.7 km . . . . . distance from Hall Beach

Rasheed bought two kinds of candy bars, chocolate and toffee, that came in packages of 2 bars each. He handed out 2/3 of the cho

Contact [7]

Answer:

9 packages of chocolate bars

Step-by-step explanation:

Let he bought c packages of chocolate bars and t packages of toffee bars,

Since, he bought 1 fewer package of chocolate bars than toffee bars.

⇒ c = t - 1 -----(1)

Also, he handed out out $\frac{2}{3}$ of the chocolate bars and $\frac{3}{5}$ of the toffee bars,

If he handed out the same number of each kind of candy bar.

$\implies \frac{2}{3}\times c=\frac{3}{5}\times t$

$10c = 9t$ ( By cross multiplication )

$\implies t=\frac{10}{9}c$ ( Division property of equality )

From equation (1),

$c=\frac{10}{9}c-1$

$1=\frac{10}{9}c-c$

$1=\frac{10c-9c}{9}$

$1=\frac{c}{9}$

$\implies c = 9$

Hence, he bought 9 packages of chocolate bars.
