Answer:Rod installed  7 screen doors

Step-by-step explanation:

Step 1

Let the number of screen door = x

And the number of wooden doors = y

since he installed 18 doors , we have that

screen door + wooden doors = 18

x + y = 18------ equation 1

Also the cost to install a screen  door -= $85

and to install a wooden door = $115

And he was therefore paid a total of $1850

Therefore

85x + 115 y = $1860------- equation 2

Step 2----- Solving

x + y = 18------ equation 1

85x + 115 y = $1860------- equation 2

Multiplying equation 1 BY 85

85x + 85y= 1530------- equation 3

85x + 115 y = $1860------- equation 4

subtracting from equation 1 from (2)

115y- 85y= 1860-1530

30y=330

y = 330/30 = 11

To find x

x+ y=18

x= 18-y

x= 18-11= 7

Rod installed  7 screen doors and 11 wooden doors.

For accounting purposes, the value of assets (land, buildings, equipment) in a business are depreciated at a set rate per year.
lidiya [134]

Answer: $ 125987.80

Step-by-step explanation:

Given: The value, V(t) of $393,000 worth of assets after t years, that depreciate at 15% per year, is given by the formula

V (t)=V_o(b)^t, here V_o is the initial asset value  and b is the multiplicative decay factor.

The exponential decay function is given by ;-

f(x)=A(b)^x, where A is the initial value , x is the  times period and b is the multiplicative decay factor.

where b = 1-r, r is the rate of decay.

Since r = 15%=0.15

Therefore, b = 1-0.15=0.85

Now ,for 7 years , the value of assets is given by :-

V=393000(0.85)^7=125986.795\approx125987.80

Hence, the assets valued at after 7 years = $ 125987.80

Simplify the expression below:
kifflom [539]

Answer:

C. -7x^2 - 28

Step-by-step explanation:

Firstly simplify the bracket before doing anything;

4x(3x - 7) = 12x^2 - 28x

then go back to the question and substitute the expression(12x^2 - 28x) on the bracket and then work out the question;

12x^2 - 28x -19x^2...then group the values with the same exponent of x,

(12x^2 - 19x^2) - 28x

; -7x^2 - 28x
