Janey bought a used bicycle for $640. the bike was 3 years old when she bought it, and cost $850 new. assuming it decreases in v

alue by the same amount each year, write a linear equation for the value of the bicycle, v, when it is t years old (so t = 0 was when it was new).

The first thing we must do in this case is to define the variables.
 We have then:
 v: the value of the bicycle
 t: years
 The standard equation of the line is:
 v-vo = m (t-to)
 The slope is:
 m = (v2-v1) / (t2-t1)
 Substituting values:
 m = (640-850) / (3-0)
 m = -70
 We choose an ordered pair:
 (to, vo) = (0, 850)
 Substituting values:
 v-850 = -70 (t-0)
 Rewriting:
 v = -70t + 850
 Answer:
 
assuming it decreases in value by the same amount each year, a linear equation for the value of the bicycle, v, when it is t years old is:
 
v = -70t + 850

Points A, B, C, and D are collinear and positioned in that order. Find the length indicated 7) Find BC if BC = 2x + 4, AD = 28,
belka [17]

Answer:

  7)  BC = 10

  8)  BD = 20

Step-by-step explanation:

7) The segment addition theorem tells you ...

  AB +BC +CD = AD

  (3x+2) +(2x+4) +(3x-2) = 28

  8x +4 = 28 . . . . collect terms

  8x = 24 . . . . . . . subtract 4

  x = 3 . . . . . . . . . divide by 8

  BC = 2x+4 = 2(3) +4

  BC = 10

__

8) AB +BD = AC +CD

  (2x -14) +(-7 +3x) = (2x -3) +(9)

  5x -21 = 2x +6

  3x = 27

  x = 9

  BD = -7 +3x = -7 +3(9)

  BD = 20

the insurance company pays the forecast of 3900 prescriptions claims out of 4500 prescription claims submitted what is the rate
nadya68 [22]

Answer:

x=0.87  or   86.67%

13 prescription claims out of 15 are paid

Step-by-step explanation:

First we organize the data:

prescription claims submitted: 4500

Prescriptions: 3900

The rate of claims paid is calculated using the following formula:

x =\frac{Paid}{Total}

We know that:

Paid = 3900

Total = 4500

So

x =\frac{3900}{4500}

x =\frac{39}{45}

x =\frac{13}{15}

x=0.87
