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.
-4/4 can be reduced to -2.
(-8/4) can be reduced to -1.
What you have to do next is to add -1-(-2).
The final answer is 1.
Hope that helps!!!.
Answer:
236,859 people visited the water park the year it opened.
Step-by-step explanation:
426,731 - 102,865= 323,866 the amount of people that visited last year
323,866 - 87,007 = 236,859 the amount of people that visited the water park the year it opened
