Hello there! So, let's do this a bit at a time. Mike's Bikes sells a bike for $300, but gives a 25% discount for any bike in the store. To find out how much he would pay for the bike, multiply 300 by 75% (0.75). This is because you are still paying 75% of the original price for that bike. When you do, you get 225. That's $225 for the bike at Mike's Bikes. Now, the one at Cycle Center sells a bike for $275, but gives a rebate of $40 after purchasing the bike. A rebate is basically a refund: you get money paid back to you. In this case, we would subtract 40 from 275, because you're basically getting paid back some of what you did pay. 275 - 40 is 235. That's $235 for the bike at Cycle Center. I'll write the prices of the bikes out to make it easier to read.
Mike's Bikes: $225
Cycle Center: $235
Okay. so when you look at the prices for the mountain bikes, you see that the bike at Mike's Bikes is $10 cheaper than the bike at Cycle Center. Dante should purchase his mountain bike at Mike's Bikes, because he will pay less money there. The Cycle Center does give $40 back, but Mike's Bikes has the bike that costs less. 225 < 235.
Monthly Payment: $288.88 ($289)
Total Amount Paid: $52,000
(3^x-2)/9^x=1/3^x-2/9^x
which converges by thereom
it converges to 10/72=5/36
id show work if i could but take my word,
if u cant solve it try working out a few partial sums
765,000 should be the correct answer
Answer:
F(t) = 10 +5t
Step-by-step explanation:
Income equals the initial fee plus the hours worked times the hourly rate
We know the initial fee = 10
hours = t
hourly rate =r
F(t) = 10 + r*t
We know a 5 hour job is 35 dollars
35 = 10 + r*5
Subtract 10 from each side
35-10 = 10-10 +5r
25 = 5r
Divide by 5
25/5 = 5r/5
5 =r
The hourly rate is 5
F(t) = 10 +5t
