Answer:
$2.9
Step-by-step explanation:
Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
Joint variation has the equation
y = kxz
k is the constant of variation and needs to be solved for using the initial conditions, then filled in later to another equation related to the given info to solve for something else. We are given y = amount of oil used, x = distance traveled, z-squared is the speed. Our equation looks like this, to be exact:

Filling in with the initial conditions:
which gives us the
k = .0014166667
Now we need to find the amount of oil used, y, under other circumstances, but this time we have our k.

which gives us that the amount of oil used, when rounded to the tenths,
y = 24.0 barrels
0.65, or in fraction form 65/100
Answer:
25306
Step-by-step explanation:
a=starting value = 20000
r=\text{rate = }4\% = 0.04
r=rate = 4%=0.04
\text{Exponential Growth:}
Exponential Growth:
b=1+r=1+0.04=1.04
b=1+r=1+0.04=1.04
\text{Write Exponential Function:}
Write Exponential Function:
y=20000(1.04)^x
y=20000(1.04)
x
Put it all together
\text{Plug in time for x:}
Plug in time for x:
y=20000(1.04)^{6}
y=20000(1.04)
6
y= 25306.38037
y=25306.38037
