Answer:

The current price of the unit trust =  £13,831.72

Step-by-step explanation:

Since it increased 7% per annum in last three years and decreased by 3% per annum before that, it implies that the unit trust decreased by 3% per annum for the first 2 years and then increased by 7% per annum for the next 3 years in the total 5 year period

The invested after 2 years = 12,000*(1-0.03)^2 = £11,290.8

This amount then grows by 7% for the next 3 years making it = 11,290.80*(1+0.07)^3 =  £13,831.7155 = £13,831.72 (Rounded to 2 decimals)

The current price of the unit trust =  £13,831.72 (Rounded to 2 decimals)

The population of Weston is 4320. The town’s records show that 45 percent of the population are males, and 2 3 23 of these males
lbvjy [14]

Answer:

In Weston 1,296 males are married

Step-by-step explanation:

step 1

Find out the number of males

Multiply the total population by 45%

45\%=45/100=0.45

4,320(0.45)=1,944\ males

step 2

Find out the number of males that are married

Multiply the number of males by 2/3

\frac{2}{3}(1,944)=1,296\ males\ married

therefore

In Weston 1,296 males are married

In 2012 your car was worth $10,000. In 2014 your car was worth $8,800. Suppose the value of your car decreased at a constant rat
Sonbull [250]

Answer:

g(t) = 10000(0.938)^t

Step-by-step explanation:

Given data:

car worth is $10,000 in 2012

car worth is $8000 in 2014

let linear function is given as

P(t) = at + b

which denote the value of car in year t

take t =0 for year 2012

at t =0, 10,000 = 0 + b

we get b = 10,000

take t =2 for year 2014

at t =2, P(2) = 2a + b

8800 = 2a + 10,000

a = - 600

Thus the price of car at year t after 2012 is given as p(t) = -600t + 10000

let the exponential function p(t)  =ab^2 where t denote t = 0 at 2012

putting t = 0 P(0) = 10,000 we get 10,000 = ab^0

a = 10,000

putting t = 2 p = 8800

8800 =ab^2

b^2 = \frac{8800}{10000}

b = 0.938

g(t) = 10000(0.938)^t
