A car is purchased for $30,000. The value of the car depreciates annually so that it is $24,000 after 1 year, $19,200 after 2 ye

ars, and $15,360 after 3 years. Why can this situation be modeled using an exponential function?
The value of the car depreciates annually by 20%.
The value of the car depreciates annually by 80%.
The value of the car depreciates annually by $6,000.
The value of the car depreciates annually by $4,800.

Answer:

It annually drops by 20%

Step-by-step explanation:

30,000 multiplied by 20% is 6000. Subtract 6000 from 30,000 and you get 24,000. 24,000 multiplied by 20% is 4,800. Subtract 4,800 from 24,000 and you get 19,200. Etc.

Find the missing lengths of the sides.

Anarel [89]

Given:

The figure of a right angle triangle.

$a=b$

Hypotenuse = $9\sqrt{2}$ in.

To find:

The missing lengths of the sides.

Solution:

In the given right angle triangle both legs a and b are equal, and hypotenuse is $9\sqrt{2}$ in.

Using Pythagoras theorem, we get

$Hyponteuse^2=Base^2+Perpendicular^2$

$(9\sqrt{2})^2=(a)^2+(b)^2$

$81(2)=(a)^2+(a)^2$ $[\because a=b]$

$81(2)=2(a)^2$

Divide both sides by 2.

$81=(a)^2$

Taking square root on both sides.

$\pm \sqrt{81}=a$

$\pm 9=a$

Side cannot be negative. So,

$9=a$

Thus, the missing side lengths are a=9 in and b=9 in.

Therefore, the correct option is C.

Eddie's Evergreens sells Christmas trees and wreaths. Trees cost 3 dollars more than 4 times the price of each wreath. It costs

kari74 [83]

Answer:

$W = 16$

$T = 67$

Step-by-step explanation:

Represent trees with T and wreaths with W

Given

$T = 3 + 4 * W$

$2 * W + T = 99$

Solving (a): Cost of W

Substitute 3 + 4 * W for T in the second equation

$2*W + 3 + 4 * W = 99$

$2W + 3 + 4 W = 99$

Collect Like Terms

$2W + 4 W = 99 - 3$

$6W = 96$

Divide through by 6

$W =\frac{96}{6}$

$W = 16$

Hence, each wreath costs $16

Solving (b): Cost of T

$T = 3 + 4 * W$

Substitute 16 for W

$T = 3 + 4 * 16$

$T = 3 + 64$

$T = 67$

Hence, each tree costs $67
