Answer:

D) a 13% decrease in value each year

Step-by-step explanation:

Perry used the formula V (t) = 24,450(1-0.13)^t to find the value of his car t years after he purchased it.

What does 0.13 represent?

The expression given above represents and expression of exponential decrease.

This is represented by the formula

y = a(1 - r)^t

Where

y = Value after time t

a = Initial value

r = Rate of decrease

t = Time

Comparing both expressions

y = a(1 - r)^t = V (t) = 24,450(1-0.13)^t

We can see that:

r = 0.13

This is the rate of decrease.

Converting to Percentage = 0.13 × 100

= 13%

Option D is the correct option.

Answer:

C = (13.75 * B * H)/3750

Step-by-step explanation:

The area of a triangle is represented by the equation A = 1/2 * B * H

Every time another 3750 square feet is covered, $27.50 is spent. So, we can represent the cost using the equation C = A/3750 * 27.50

Plugging in the base and height, C = (1/2 * B * H * 27.50)/3750

C = (13.75 * B * H)/3750

Answer a, b and c. See image below

dlinn [17]

Answer:

a) 3/5 < 4/5

b) In general if two fractions have the same denominator, then whichever fraction has the numerator closer to its denominator will be the largest fraction.

c) $\frac{7}{10} > \frac{9}{15}$ or $\frac{7}{10}$

Step-by-step explanation:

a) 3/5 < 4/5

Flip the sign and the placement of the fraction so 3/5 is less then 4/5.

b) In general if two fractions have the same denominator, then whichever fraction has the numerator closer to its denominator will be the largest fraction.

c) We need to change the denominators to a common denominator to compare the size of the two fractions:

$\frac{7}{10}$ × $\frac{3}{3}$ = $\frac{21}{30}$

$\frac{9}{15}$ × $\frac{2}{2}$ = $\frac{18}{30}$

The common denominators of the two fractions is 30. Comparing the two fractions:

$\frac{21}{30} >\frac{18}{30}$ or $\frac{18}{30}$

so we get: $\frac{7}{10} > \frac{9}{15}$ or $\frac{7}{10}$

Hello! is y = 3x - 3 proportional or non-proportional?? please help!

MissTica

A proportional graph is a straight line that goes through the origin while a non-proportional graph is a straight line that doesn't go through the origin.

y = mx + b

the b represents the y-intercept, so -3 is the y-intercept in the equation y = 3x -3

therefore, the line doesn't go through the origin and is a non-proportional equation
