Answer:
The last one
Step-by-step explanation:
Answer:
f(x) = 26500 * (0.925)^x
It will take 7 years
Step-by-step explanation:
A car with an initial cost of $26,500 depreciates at a rate of 7.5% per year. Write the function that models this situation. Then use your formula to determine when the value of the car will be $15,000 to the nearest year.
To find the formula we will use this formula: f(x) = a * b^x. A is our initial value which in this case is $26500. B is how much the value is increasing or decreasing. In this case it is decreasing by 7.5% per year. Since the car value is decreasing we will subtract 0.075 from 1. This will result in the formula being f(x) = 26500 * (0.925)^x. Now to find the value of the car to the nearest year of when the car will be 15000 we plug 15000 into f(x). 15000 = 26500 * (0.925)^x. First we divide both side by 26500 which will make the equation: 0.56603773584=(0.925)^x. Then we will root 0.56603773584 by 0.925. This will result in x being 7.29968 which is approximately 7 years.
Answer:
C is the closest.,
Step-by-step explanation:
I am assuming that the 2 trapezoids CBEF and EFDA are similar (they are similar if the 3 horizontal lines are parallel).
Corresponding sides are in the same ratio , so:
3.4 / EF = EF / 7.6
EF^2 = 3.4 * 7.6 = 25.84
EF = 5.08
Answer:
a) 1/2
b) 6/100
c)1/4
I'll explain how I got these answers later.
487.9573 * 1000 = 487947.30
As you can see, the first number has a decimal point, and the second number is 1000. You can drop the 0s in the 1000 leaving 1 to multiply with the first number. Simply move the decimal point to the right based on the number of 0s there are on the second number.
Since, 1000 has three 0s. Move the decimal point 3 times to the right of the number. So, from 487.9573 to 487957.3
If the function is division but the numbers are the same, you must move the decimal point to the left.
