Answer:

$5768.1

Step-by-step explanation:

Given data

Cost price= $13,000

Depreciation= 15%

Time= 5 years

The expression for the depreciation is given below

A= P(1-r)^t

Substitute

A=13000(1-0.15)^5

A=13000(0.85)^5

A=13000*0.4437

A=$5768.1

Hence after 5 years, the car will be $5768.1

Three sets have 5, 10, 15 elements, respectively. How many elements can their union and intersection have?

Degger [83]

Answer:

$Union = 15$

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

$n(A) = 5; n(B) = 10; n(C) = 15$

Solving (a): Possible union elements

This is the represented by element with the largest number of the sets

i.e.

$Union = 15$

Solving (b): Possible intersection elements

This is the represented by element with the least number of the sets

i.e.

$Intersection = 5$

Step-by-step explanation:

The slope is m=y2-y1/x2-x1=3-2/-8-3=1/-11=-1/11

Equation of a line is

y-y1=m(x-x1)

y-2= - 1/11 (x-3)
